Effects of Cu(2+) and Pb(2+) on different fish species: liver cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase activities and FTIR spectra.

The effects of Cu(2+)-sulfate and Pb(2+)-acetate on carp (Cyprinus carpio L.), silver carp (Hypopthalmichtys molitrix V.) and wels (Silurus glanis L.

Detection of toxic effects of Cd2+ on different fish species via liver cytochrome P450-dependent monooxygenase activities and FTIR spectroscopy.

The in vivo and in vitro effects of Cd2+ and the CYP1A inductor beta-naphthoflavone(beta-NF) on the hepatic cytochrome P450 (Cyt 450) monooxygenases were studied in silver carp (Hypophthalmichtys molitrix V.), wels (Silurus glanis L.), and carp (Cyprinus carpio).

Analysis of the vibrational spectra of new OH-containing E-4-arylmethylene-3-isochromanones and 3-arylcoumarins.

A combined experimental and theoretical approach is presented to structural characterization of fairly large, newly synthesized organic molecules in order to enhance the effectiveness of their instrumental analysis by vibrational spectroscopy. The method consists of measurement of FT-IR and Raman spectra of the reaction products and subsequent ab initio or DFT quantum mechanical calculations (prediction) of the vibrational spectra for any anticipated structural varieties of the synthesized molecules. Comparison of the measured and computed frequencies as well as the observed and simulated spectra is performed to resolve any uncertainties in identifying the reaction products.
