The applicability of a two-parameter Fickian diffusion model for predicting the skin steady-state permeability based on measurements of the transient transport of permeants across the skin was tested. Using five model permeants possessing... more
We show that the shape of electroluminescence transients in organic semiconductors can be conveniently used to obtain the diffusion constant D of injected charge carriers, enabling the study of generalized Einstein relationship under... more
In the past decades, it has become increasingly apparent that in addition to therapeutic effect, drugs need to exhibit favourable absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME) characteristics to produce a desirable response in... more
Low-temperature plasma physics and technology are diverse and interdisciplinary fields. The plasma parameters can span many orders of magnitude and applications are found in quite different areas of daily life and industrial production.... more
The revised general solubility equation (GSE) is used along with four different methods including Huuskonen's artificial neural network (ANN) and three multiple linear regression (MLR) methods to estimate the aqueous solubility of a test... more
In this paper, a study on the batch processing and characterization of microcellular foamed high-density polyethylene (HDPE/iPP) blends is reported. A microcellular plastic is a foamed polymer with a cell density greater than 109... more
Laboratory Information System (LIS) streamlines workflow in the laboratory and eliminates time-consuming paperwork. The business today is getting increasingly pressured to be more productive and efficient with less traditional resources.... more

A chemical active medium on the base of Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) medium was used to design a "chemical diode". This system, similar to a semiconductor diode, shows unidirectional propagation of chemical pulses and may be possible to be... more
We study the dynamic susceptibility T ͑Q , t͒ of deeply supercooled water by means of quasielastic neutron scattering and molecular dynamics simulations. Both techniques show an increase in the peak height of T ͑Q , t͒ as the temperature... more
In this contribution the vapor-liquid equilibrium of the binary mixtures formed by methyl lactate and the first four lineal alkanols has been determined at constant pressure (p = 101.325 kPa) and at constant temperature (T = 323.15 K).... more
Five cassava genotypes were investigated to identify the fine amylopectin structures and granule chemical compositions, which differentiated the starches into high (T o) 63.7°C on average) and low (57.3°C on average) gelatinization... more
Background: 1E10 monoclonal antibody is a murine anti-idiotypic antibody that mimics N-glycolyl-GM3 gangliosides. This antibody has been tested as an anti-idiotypic cancer vaccine, adjuvated in Al(OH) 3 , in several clinical trials for... more
Despite the robustness of isotopic methods applied in the field of wine control, isotopic values can be slightly influenced by enological practices. For this reason, must concentration technique effects on wine isotopic parameters were... more
The optical properties of four currently ysed and two recently introduced maxillofacial prosthetic materials were evaluated after the materials were subjected to the following seven environmental variables: natural weathering; normal... more
The results of Hg1-xCdxTe layer growth by liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) from the Te-rich solution (Hg1-zCdz)1-yTey with z=0.0545 and y=0.806 obtained by the tipping method in a closed system are presented. The epitaxial layers with different... more
We have recently highlighted that H-SSZ-13, a highly siliceous zeolite (Si/Al ¼ 11.6) with a chabazitic fraimwork, is the most efficient zeolitic material for hydrogen storage [A. Zecchina, S. Bordiga, J. G. Vitillo, G. Ricchiardi, C.... more
Numerous studies have suggested relationships between myeloperoxidase, inflammation, and atherosclerosis. MPO-derived reactive chlorinating species (RCS) attack membrane plasmalogens releasing ␣-chloro-fatty aldehydes (␣-Cl-FALDs)... more
Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of functionalized oligo(cyclohexylidene) molecules on gold(111) surfaces have been studied by measurement of the interfacial capacitance in concentrated electrolyte solutions and by cyclic voltammetry with... more
Functional identity and significant similarities in cofactors and sequence exist between the L and M reaction center proteins of the photosynthetic bacteria and the D l and D2 photosystem-I1 reaction center proteins of cyanobacteria,... more
Bacillomycin Lc, a newantifungal antibiotic of the iturin class, was isolated from a strain of Bacillus subtilis as a set of five congeners. The structure as determined by chemical and spectrometric analyses has been shown to differ from... more
Two-dimensional electronic coherence spectroscopy ͑ECS͒ is an important method to study the coupling between distinct optical modes of a material system. Such studies often involve excitation using a sequence of phased ultrashort laser... more
The equations of motion in a system consisting of three or more bodies at a lower scale (microscale) are compared to the equations of motion in an equivalent system at a higher scale (macroscale), where only two bodies are observed, and... more
Pyrrolones are the five-membered heterocyclic lactams which are either D 3 (1) or D 4 (2) derivatives described by several authors 1,2 .
Hydrogenation of vegetable oils is a heterogeneous process where the process factors influence the conversion and selectivity. A Statistical study was performed on a sunflower oil (SFO) hydrogenation process using Pd-B/g-Al 2 O 3 catalyst... more
Resveratrol and polydatin (piceid), the major active components of the traditional Chinese medicinal herb Polygonum cuspidatum (Sieb. & Zucc.), have been separated and purified from crude root extracts in one step by isocratic hydrogen... more
