Molecular Dynamics and Experimental Study of the Effect of CeF and NdF Additives on the Physical Properties of FLiNaK.

The paper presents the results, which are consistent within 2%, obtained both in the simulation of molecular dynamics and in the experiment on the study of the kinetic properties of molten FLiNaK with addition of lanthanide fluorides. The parameters of the Born-Huggins-Meier potential for the interaction of CeF or NdF with FLiNaK components are first calculated using the ab initio approach. The enthalpy of the system with dissolved CeF or NdF calculated in the model increases by ∼4.

[Challenges of expert assessment of injury to health in the case of iatrogenic mastectomy due to erroneous histological verification of an oncological condition].

A case of commission forensic medical examination in the St. Petersburg Bureau of Forensic Science of a civil case due to an unfavorable treatment outcome is presented. Patient , 45 years old; due to erroneous histological verification of oncological pathology, she had both breasts removed and received antitumor treatment.

Dynamic Viscosity of the NaF-KF-NdF Molten System.

The dynamic viscosity (η) of the molten system (NaF-KF)-NdF containing NdF in an amount from 0 to 15 mol.% was studied by rotational viscometry using a high-temperature rheometer, FRS 1600. Viscosity measurements were carried out in the temperature range from liquidus to 1153 K.

Action of tannin on cellular membranes: Novel insights from concerted studies on lipid bilayers and native cells.

Hydrolyzable tannin (3,6-bis-O-digalloyl-1,2,4-tri-O-galloyl-β-d-glucose) has a dual effect on the cell membrane: (1) it binds to a plasmalemmal protein of the Chara corallina cell (C = 2.7 ± 0.3 μM) and (2) it forms ionic channels in the lipid membrane.

A Characeae Cells Plasma Membrane as a Model for Selection of Bioactive Compounds and Drugs: Interaction of HAMLET-Like Complexes with Ion Channels of Chara corallina Cells Plasmalemma.

Interaction of a HAMLET-like La-OA cytotoxic complex (human α-lactalbumin-oleic acid) and its constituents with the excitable plasmalemma of giant Chara corallina cells was investigated. The voltage-clamp technique was used to study Ca and Cl transient currents in the plasmalemma of intact cells. The action of the complex and OA on the target cell membrane has a dose-dependent character.
