[Sample pretreatment methods of pesticide residues in Panax notoginseng of Chinese traditional medicine].

Two sample pretreatment methods of pesticide residues in Panax notoginseng of Chinese traditional medicine were developed. For Method I, the residues were extracted from homogenized tissue with n-hexane-dichloromethane (6:4) by means of ultrasonication, the crude extract was purified by an Envi-carb/NH2 solid-phase extraction (SPE) column. For Method II, matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) technique was used for extracting and cleaning up.

N-(2-Bromo-phen-yl)-1,3-selenazolo[5,4-b]pyridin-2-amine.

The mol-ecular structure of the title mol-ecule, C12H8BrN3Se, is built up from fused selenazolo and pyridine rings, linked to a 2-bromo-aniline group. In the crystal, pairs of mol-ecules are linked by N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into dimers, forming eight-membered ring motifs.

Irradiation-mediated carbon nanotubes' use in cancer therapy.

Anticancer drugs such as biological therapeutic proteins and peptides are used for treatment of a variety of tumors. However, their wider use has been hindered by their poor bioavailability and the uncontrollable sites of action in vivo. Cancer nano-therapeutics is rapidly progressing, which is being applied for solving some limitations of conventional drug delivery systems.

Protein-based alignment in 3D-QSAR of FBPase inhibitors.

Three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) studies were performed on Frusectose-1, 6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) inhibitors, based on molecular docking obtained by using GOLD and comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA). Three random splits into training and test sets had been performed and the high leave-one-out (LOO) cross-validated correlation coefficients q(2) of 0.781, 0.

Rapid microwave synthesis of chitosan modified carbon nanotube composites.

Chitosan modified multi-walled carbon nanotube composites were synthesized under microwave irradiation. The resultant chitosan modified multi-walled carbon nanotube composites were purified by twice adjusting of pH value of the solution and centrifugating in succession. The surface functional groups of chitosan modified multi-walled carbon nanotube composites are confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and UV-vis spectroscopy.
