Activities of Alkyl Hydroperoxide Reductase Subunits C1 and C2 of Vibrio parahaemolyticus against Different Peroxides.

Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 80(23) , 7398-404, (2015)

Alkyl hydroperoxide reductase subunit C gene (ahpC) functions were characterized in Vibrio parahaemolyticus, a commonly occurring marine food-borne enteropathogenic bacterium. Two ahpC genes, ahpC1 (VPA1683) and ahpC2 (VP0580), encoded putative two-cysteine p...

QSPR modeling of octanol/water partition coefficient for vitamins by optimal descriptors calculated with SMILES.

Eur. J. Med. Chem. 43 , 714-40, (2008)

Simplified molecular input line entry system (SMILES) has been utilized in constructing quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) for octanol/water partition coefficient of vitamins and organic compounds of different classes by optimal descriptors....

Energy transfer between amphiphilic porphyrin polymer shells and upconverting nanoparticle cores in water-dispersible nano-assemblies.

Org. Biomol. Chem. 13(8) , 2317-22, (2015)

The synthesis of water-dispersible nano-assemblies containing upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs) and porphyrin molecules using a one-pot method is described. When the nano-assemblies are excited by 980 nm near-infrared light, the intensity of the 'green emiss...

Styrene maleic acid micelles as a nanocarrier system for oral anticancer drug delivery - dual uptake through enterocytes and M-cells.

Int. J. Nanomedicine 10 , 4653-67, (2015)

Drug delivery systems could potentially overcome low bioavailability and gastrointestinal toxicity, which are the major challenges for the development of oral anticancer drugs. Herein, we demonstrate the ability of styrene maleic acid (SMA) nanomicelles encap...

Attenuation of Oxidative Damage by Boerhaavia diffusa L. Against Different Neurotoxic Agents in Rat Brain Homogenate.

J. Diet. Suppl. 13 , 300-12, (2015)

Due to a high rate of oxidative metabolic activity in the brain, intense production of reactive oxygen metabolite occurs, and the subsequent generation of free radicals is implicated in the pathogenesis of traumatic brain injury, epilepsy, and ischemia as wel...

Incipient cytotoxicity: A time-independent measure of cytotoxic potency in vitro.

Toxicology 335 , 35-45, (2015)

Time is an important determinant of toxicity but largely ignored in in vitro toxicity assays where exposure times chosen are rather arbitrary. To investigate the impact of time on the cytotoxic potency of chemicals in vitro, the concentration dependent cytoto...

Cometabolic degradation of trichloroethene by Rhodococcus sp. strain L4 immobilized on plant materials rich in essential oils.

Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 76(14) , 4684-90, (2010)

The cometabolic degradation of trichloroethene (TCE) by Rhodococcus sp. L4 was limited by the loss of enzyme activity during TCE transformation. This problem was overcome by repeated addition of inducing substrates, such as cumene, limonene, or cumin aldehyde...

Antioxidant activity of the new thiosulfinate derivative, S-benzyl phenylmethanethiosulfinate, from Petiveria alliacea L.

Org. Biomol. Chem. 6(6) , 1097-102, (2008)

The antioxidant effects of the new thiosulfinate derivative, S-benzyl phenylmethanethiosulfinate (BPT), against the oxidation of cumene and methyl linoleate (ML) in chlorobenzene were studied in detail using HPLC. The results showed that BPT provided effectiv...

The lactic acid stinging test predicts susceptibility to cumulative irritation caused by two lipophilic irritants.

Contact Dermatitis 63(6) , 347-56, (2010)

Skin exposure to lipophilic irritants at workplaces is a risk factor for the development of occupational irritant hand dermatitis. Suitable lipophilic model irritants to be used in repeated irritation studies in volunteers are needed to gain a better understa...

Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films of a maleic anhydride derivative: effect of subphase divalent cations.

Langmuir 26(18) , 14556-62, (2010)

We report the study of the equilibrium and dynamic properties of Langmuir monolayers of poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) partial 2-buthoxyethyl ester cumene terminated polymer and the effect of the Mg(NO(3))(2) addition in the water subphase on the film prop...
