Selection of biodegradable chitosan as a raw material is a smart technique due to its easy modifiability and high renewability. Herein, taking advantage of these functional characteristics, an ionic biopolymer support is produced from copolymerization of allylated chitosan (with 48 % degree of substitution) and polymerizable ionic liquid ([MEVIm]Br). Next, palladium nanoparticles are successfully stabilized in this designed support through a facile manner based on interconnected porous network, ionic nature and rich functional groups.

Transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been used to control the complications of disease. Most of the therapeutic properties of MSCs are attributed to their secretome.

Five derivatives of these NH-acidic compounds are used to intercept the reactive zwitterionic intermediates generated from dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate and PhP to produce dimethyl 4,4-dicyano-6-aryloyl-1-alkyl-1',3'-dioxo-1',2,3',4-tetrahydro-1H-spiro[cyclopenta[b]pyrrole-5,2'-indene]-2,3-dicarboxylates. Radical scavenging activity of four derivatives was investigated by radical trapping of diphenylpicrylhydrazine and ferric reduction power experiments.

To this end, a micro-mesoporous PIL with acid-base bifunctional active sites was designed and fabricated by two different polymerization protocols including hydrothermal and classical precipitation polymerization in this paper. Based on our observations, hydrothermal conditions (high temperature and pressure) enabled the proposed sonocatalyst to possess a great porous structure with a high specific surface area ( : 315 m g) and thermal stability (around 450 °C for 45% weight loss) through strengthening cross-linking.

This study investigated protective effect of leptin on trichostatin A-induced apoptotic on in vitro maturation ratio of buffalo oocytes. Ovaries were collected from abattoir and were transported immediately to the laboratory by a thermos flask containing sterile normal saline with antibiotics.
