Correlations between the Electronic Properties of Shewanella oneidensis Cytochrome c Nitrite Reductase (ccNiR) and Its Structure: Effects of Heme Oxidation State and Active Site Ligation.

Biochemistry 54 , 3749-58, (2015)

The electrochemical properties of Shewanella oneidensis cytochrome c nitrite reductase (ccNiR), a homodimer that contains five hemes per protomer, were investigated by UV-visible and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectropotentiometries. Global analysi...

The synergistic effect of ultrasound and chemical penetration enhancers on chorioamnion mass transport.

J. Control. Release 200 , 35-41, (2015)

In our previous study we proposed the use of chemical penetration enhancers for noninvasive detection of fetus abnormalities that can also be utilized for direct fetal drug delivery. In an attempt to further increase the mass transport rate across the amnioti...

Evaluation of potential genotoxicity of five food dyes using the somatic mutation and recombination test.

Chemosphere 88(8) , 974-9, (2012)

In this study, different concentrations of five food dyes (amaranth, patent blue, carminic acid, indigotine and erythrosine) have been evaluated for genotoxicity in the Somatic Mutation and Recombination Test (SMART) of Drosophila melanogaster. Standard cross...

Mechanisms of enhanced total organic carbon elimination from oxalic acid solutions by electro-peroxone process.

Water Res. 80 , 20-9, (2015)

Electro-peroxone (E-peroxone) is a novel electrocatalytic ozonation process that combines ozonation and electrolysis process to enhance pollutant degradation during water and wastewater treatment. This enhancement has been mainly attributed to several mechani...

An annotated bibliography of recent significant publications on indigo and related compounds.

Biotech. Histochem. 87(7) , 439-63, (2012)

This bibliography lists and provides commentary on publications describing the history, preparation, chemistry and applications of indigo and related dyes. The dates of the publications are mostly, but not exclusively, later than the previously published indi...

Indigo carmine extravasation to upper limb after pelvic reconstructive surgery.

Obstet. Gynecol. 121(2 Pt 2 Suppl 1) , 449-51, (2013)

The use of dyes during cystoscopy to visualize the ureters adequately is prevalent in gynecologic surgery. Observing ureteral patency after procedures such as a hysterectomy or pelvic reconstruction is important for identifying injury to the upper urinary tra...

On the spectroscopic analyses of thioindigo dye.

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 113 , 332-6, (2013)

A combined experimental and theoretical study on molecular structure and vibrational frequencies of thioindigo was reported. The FT-IR spectrum of thioindigo is recorded in the solid phase. The equilibrium geometries, harmonic vibrational frequencies, thermo-...

Axillary reverse mapping using fluorescence imaging is useful for identifying the risk group of postoperative lymphedema in breast cancer patients undergoing sentinel node biopsies.

J. Surg. Oncol. 109(6) , 612-5, (2014)

Axillary reverse mapping (ARM) is a novel technique for preserving the upper extremity lymphatic pathways during axillary lymph node surgery. However, there is no evidence of the usefulness of ARM for patients undergoing sentinel lymph node biopsy (SNB).Betwe...

Amphibacillus iburiensis sp. nov., an alkaliphile that reduces an indigo dye.

Int. J. Syst. Evol. Microbiol. 63(Pt 11) , 4303-8, (2013)

An indigo-reducing alkaliphilic strain, designated strain N314(T), was isolated from a fermented polygonum indigo (Polygonum tinctorium Lour.) liquor sample, aged for 10 months, that was obtained from Date City, Iburi Branch, Hokkaido, Japan. The 16S rRNA gen...

Novel clinical in vivo roles for indigo carmine: high-magnification chromoscopic colonoscopy.

Biotech. Histochem. 82(2) , 57-71, (2007)

Since the adenoma-carcinoma sequence was first proposed by Morson in the 1970s, it has become widely accepted that detection and subsequent removal of polypoid adenomas from the colon reduces the incidence of colorectal cancer. These adenomas are relatively e...
