A high-molecular mass polysaccharide fraction was obtained by mild acid hydrolysis of the lipopolysaccharide of diazotrophic rhizobacterium Azospirillum brasilense SR80 followed by GPC on Sephadex G-50 Superfine. Studies by composition and methylation analyses, Smith degradation, and 1D and 2D (1)H and (13)C NMR spectroscopy demonstrated the presence of two structurally distinct repeating units having the following structures: It seems likely, although not proved, that these are repeats of two distinct polysaccharides rather than they build blocks within the same polysaccharide chain. The former structure is new, whereas the latter is closely related to the O-polysaccharide structure of A. brasilense Jm6B2 established earlier, which differs in partial (~60%) 3-O-methylation of d-rhamnose only [Boiko, A. S.; Dmitrenok, A. S.; Fedonenko, Yu. P.; Zdorovenko, E. L.; Konnova, S. A.; Knirel, Y. A.; Ignatov, V. V. Carbohydr. Res.2012, 355, 92-95].

The diversity in dermal pigmentation and plumage color among domestic chickens is striking, with Black Bone Chickens (BBC) particularly notable for their intense melanin hyperpigmentation. This unique trait is driven by a complex chromosomal rearrangement on chromosome 20 at the Fm locus, resulting in the overexpression of the EDN3 (a gene central to melanocyte regulation). In contrast, the inhibition of dermal pigmentation is regulated by the Id locus.

The efficiency of kinase inhibiting cancer therapeutics is often limited by their poor solubility in water. PEGylation is one possible strategy to improve the solubility of the drug, however, means to cleave these after reaching the target is important to make use of the therapeutic effects of the native drug. Moreover, the length of the PEG chains will have an effect on the solubility and binding.

Background: Transport by mobile stroke units (MSUs), which provide access to computed tomography scanning and intravenous blood pressure medications and thrombolytics, reduces time to treatment and may improve short-term functional outcomes for patients with acute stroke. The longer-term clinical and financial impacts remain incompletely understood. The aim of the study was to determine whether MSU care is associated with better health, utilization, and spending outcomes for patients with suspected acute stroke.

Heterogeneous catalysis is significantly enhanced by the use of highly porous polymers with specific functionalities, such as basic groups, which accelerate reaction rates. Polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) provide a unique platform for catalytic reactions owing to their high surface areas and customizable pore structures. We herein report a series of Tröger's base polymers (TB-PIMs) with enhanced basicity, achieved through the incorporation of nitrogen-containing groups into their repeat units, such as triazine and triphenylamine.
