Kinetic models for the dynamical behavior of polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa-carrageenan (kappa C) composite gels
(Springer, 2015)
A fluorescence method was employed for studying the drying and swelling of PAAm-kappa C composite gels which were formed from acrylamide (AAm) and N N'- methylenebisacrylamide (BIS) with various kappa-carrageenan (kappa ...
Absolute configuration and biological profile of pyrazoline enantiomers as MAO inhibitory activity
(Wiley, 2019)
A new racemic pyrazoline derivative was synthesized and resolved to its enantiomers using analytic and semipreparative high-pressure liquid chromatography. The absolute configuration of both fractions was established using ...
Flavonoids from Sideritis Species: Human Monoamine Oxidase (hMAO) Inhibitory Activities Molecular Docking Studies and Crystal Structure of Xanthomicrol
(MDPI, 2015)
The inhibitory effects of flavonoids on monoamine oxidases (MAOs) have attracted great interest since alterations in monoaminergic transmission are reported to be related to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's ...
Elastic Properties of a Swollen PAAm-NIPA Copolymer with Various NIPA Contents
(Taylor & Francis, 2014)
Copolymer based on cross-linked polyacrylamide (PAAm) having N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPA) was prepared and their elastic properties were studied as a function of NIPA contents. NIPA content dependency of the shear modulus ...
Effect of Calcium Ion Concentration on Small Molecule Desorption from Alginate Beads
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2014)
Spherical alginate beads were prepared by ionotropic gelation of sodium alginate through the use of calcium ions. Pyranine (Py) was added to the alginate solution as a small molecule probe for fluorescence studies. Desorption ...
Multifaceted Dynamics of Janus Oscillator Networks
(Amer Physical Soc., 2019)
Recent research has led to the discovery of fundamental new phenomena in network synchronization including chimera states explosive synchronization and asymmetry-induced synchronization. Each of these phenomena has thus ...
Novel Mutants of the Aubergine Gene
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)
Aubergine is an RNA-binding protein of the Piwi clade functioning in germline in the piRNA pathway that silences transposons and repetitive sequences. Several mutations of this gene exist but they mostly result in truncated ...
Structural Analysis of Peptide Fragments Following The Hydrolysis of Bovine Serum Albumin by Trypsin and Chymotrypsin
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2016)
Peptide bond hydrolysis of bovine serum albumin (BSA) by chymotrypsin and trypsin was investigated by employing time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. As a fluorescent cross-linking reagent N-(1-pyrenyl) maleimide (PM) ...
Effects of Precursor Parameters on the Optical and Electrical Properties of AZO Nano-Composite Films
(Elsevier GMBH Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2016)
Al doped ZnO (AZO) nano-composite films were synthesized on glass substrates with the sol gel spin coating method at the room temperature. The activation energy of AZO nano-composite films was calculated to be 49 kj/mol ...
Status of malondialdehyde, catalase and superoxide dismutase levels/activities in schoolchildren with iron deficiency and iron-deficiency anemia of Kashere and its environs in Gombe State, Nigeria
(Elsevier, 2019)
Background: Iron-deficiency anemia (IDA) or iron deficiency (ID) is by far the most common form of disorder affecting the cognitive development, physical growth and school performance of children in developing countries ...
