Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of hydroxyethyl starch in hypovolemic pigs; a comparison of peripheral and intraosseous infusion.
1999
Intraosseous (i.o.) infusion is considered a useful technique for the administration of medications and fluids in emergency situations when peripheral intravascular access is not possible. This study investigated the effectiveness of i.o. versus intravenous (i.v.) infusion of hydroxyethyl starch (HES 200/0.5) in hypovolemic pigs. Twenty-three pigs (8- to 9-week-old) were anaesthesized, instrumented and blood was withdrawn (25-30 ml/kg) to50 mmHg mean arterial pressure (MAP). The animals were left untreated in haemorrhage for 30 min. Relevant haemodynamic parameters were monitored and blood samples were collected for blood gas and HES concentration analysis. Infusion of HES via i.v. or i.o. …
Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanodots-Ionogels: Preparation, Characterization, and Radical Scavenging Activity
2018
Hybrid diimidazolium-based ionogels were obtained by dispersing nitrogen-doped carbon nanodots (NCNDs) in ionic liquid (IL) solutions and by using dicationic organic salts as gelators. The properties of the NCND-ionogels were studied in terms of thermal stability, mechanical strength, morphology, rheological, and microscopic analyses. Insights into the formation of the hybrid soft material were attained from kinetics of sol-gel phase transition and from estimating the size of the aggregates, obtained from opacity and resonance light-scattering measurements. We demonstrate that, on one hand, NCNDs were able to favor the gel formation both in the presence of gelating and nongelating ILs. On t…
The use of morphokinetics as a predictor of embryo implantation.
2011
Background Time-lapse observation presents an opportunity for optimizing embryo selection based on morphological grading as well as providing novel kinetic parameters, which may further improve accurate selection of viable embryos. The objective of this retrospective study was to identify the morphokinetic parameters specific to embryos that were capable of implanting. In order to compare a large number of embryos, with minimal variation in culture conditions, we have used an automatic embryo monitoring system. Methods Using a tri-gas IVF incubator with a built-in camera designed to automatically acquire images at defined time points, we have simultaneously monitored up to 72 individual emb…
L'intégration multisensorielle comme stratégie pour compenser la réduction en sodium et matière grasse dans les aliments
2015
In recent years;health authorities worldwide advise for a reduction of salt and fat in daily food consumption. However;foods with reduced salt and fat content are often not appreciated by consumers;Therefore;the formulation of low-salt-fat foods that maintain acceptability is a major concern in food research. In this thesis;the multi-sensory integration and release kinetics of flavor compounds were explored as strategies to compensate for salt and fat reduction in cheese products (model cheeses and real cheeses). The objective was to better understand the mechanisms leading to aroma and salt release during mastication and to evaluate how the matrix composition and structure influence salt a…
The Boulton-Katritzky Reaction: A Kinetic Study of the Effect of 5-Nitrogen Substituents on the Rearrangement of Some (Z)-Phenylhydrazones of 3-Benzo…
2014
The kinetics of the ring-into-ring conversion of some new (Z)-phenylhydrazones of 3-benzoyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole containing different nitrogen-substituents at C-5 (3b–d; X = NHMe, NMe2, and NHCOMe) into the relevant triazoles 4b–d have been examined in a wide range of pS+ (0.1–11.9) in 1:1 (v/v) dioxane/water solution. The obtained results have been compared with previous data concerning the (Z)-phenylhydrazone of 5-amino-3-benzoyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole (3a; X = NH2). All of the studied (Z)-phenylhydrazones rearrange through three different pathways (specific acid-catalysed, uncatalysed and general base-catalysed). The different effects of the substituents on the course of the rearrangement in the t…
Kinetically Controlled Stepwise Self-Assembly of AuI-Metallopeptides in Water
2018
The combination of attractive supramolecular interactions of a hydrophobic AuI-metallopeptide with the shielding effect of flexible oligoethylene glycol chains provides access to a stepwise self-assembly of a AuI-metalloamphiphile in water. Kinetic control of the supramolecular polymer morphology is achieved using a temperature-dependent assembly protocol, which yields low dispersity supramolecular polymers (metastable state I) or helical bundled nanorods (state II).
Development of a Chiral DMAP Catalyst for the Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of Azole Hemiaminals
2017
A new catalyst for the dynamic kinetic resolution of azole hemiaminals has been developed using late-stage structural modifications of the tert-leucinol-derived chiral subunit of DMAP species.
