Liver Fat, Adipose Tissue, and Body Composition Changes After Switching from a Protease Inhibitor or Efavirenz to Raltegravir.

2021

Integrase inhibitors appear to increase body weight, but paradoxically some data indicate that raltegravir (RAL) may decrease liver fat. Our objective was to study the effects of switching from a protease inhibitor (PI) or efavirenz (EFV) to RAL on liver fat, body composition, and metabolic parameters among people living with HIV (PLWH) with high risk for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We randomized overweight PLWH with signs of metabolic syndrome to switch a PI or EFV to RAL (

DNA damage profiles induced by oxidizing agents

Aeromonas hydrophila subsp. dhakensis isolated from feces, water and fish in Mediterranean Spain.

2012

Eight Aeromonas hydrophila-like arabinose-negative isolates from diverse sources (i.e., river freshwater, cooling-system water pond, diseased wild European eels, and human stools) sampled in Valencia (Spain) during 2004-2005, were characterized by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and extensive biochemical testing along with reference strains of most Aeromonas species. These isolates and all reference strains of A. hydrophila subsp. dhakensis and A. aquariorum showed a 16S rRNA sequence similarity of 99.8-100%, and they all shared an identical phenotype. This matched exactly with that of A. hydrophila subsp. dhakensis since all strains displayed positive responses to the Voges-Prokauer test and to t…

Acetazolamide-M(II) [M(II) = Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II)] complexes with ethylamine, diethylamine, triethylamine, and potassium hidroxide

1991

Abstract Complexes of Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) with dideprotonated Acm are synthesized and characterized. Acm acts as bidentate ligand through the N-sulfonamido atom and the N-thiadiazole atom except for K6CoAcm4·6H2O in which Acm behaves as monodentate through the N-sulfonamido atom.

An isocratic high-pressure liquid chromatographic purification method for radioactively labeled deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates.

1976

Abstract A method is described for the rapid purification of radioactively labeled deoxyribonucleoside tri­phosphates from their spontaneously emerging hydrolysis products deoxyribonucleoside diphosphate, deoxyribonucleoside monophosphate, and deoxyribonucleoside. The separations which are finished within 3 min or less are carried out on a 0.1X5 cm column filled with LiChrosorb-NH2 , using isocratic elution with 0.025 м potassium phosphate, pH 6 .8 , in a high-pressure liquid chromatograph at room temperature and a flow rate of 30 ml · h-1(flow velocity 63.7 cm·min-1).

Determination of Phenol by Preconcentration‐Direct Chemiluminescence in a FIA Assembly

2005

Abstract The determination of phenol in water samples is proposed with the aid of a flow‐injection system. The analytical procedure is based on the direct chemiluminometric emission by oxidation of the analyte with potassium permanganate in acidic medium. The flow assembly is provided with a solid‐phase reactor filled with a resin type XAD‐4 for analyte preconcentration. A large study of potential interferences, namely, amino acids reaching water through degradation of organic matter; metals and inorganic metal ions typically present in water interfering with the CL emission of the parent compound, was performed. The calibration graph was linear over the phenol concentration range 1.0–20.0 …

Photo‐Induced Chemiluminometric Determination of Acrolein in a Multicommutation Flow Assembly

2007

Abstract This paper deals with the determination of acrolein based on a strategy provided with a sensitive detection, the chemiluminescence; a “clean chemical” analyte treatment, the on‐line UV‐irradiation; and, a simple and quick automated system, the emergent multicommutation continuous‐flow methodology. The pesticide solution is irradiated (stopped‐flow) for 30 s; then, the resulting solution is introduced to the flow‐cell after being alternated with segments of the stream formed by potassium permanganate in strong acid solution and ethanol segments. The calibration range, from 1 to 1 mg l−1, resulted in a linear behavior over the range 5–100 µg l−1 and fitting the linear equation: I=75.…

New flow-multicommutation method for the photo-chemiluminometric determination of the carbamate pesticide asulam

2004

This paper deals with a straightforward automated method for the determination of asulam in water based on the use of a flow manifold including three computer-controlled solenoid valves. The method involves irradiating on an aqueous solution of asulam in glycine buffer at pH 8.3 with UV light during 90 s, then follows the oxidation with potassium permanganate in a sulphuric medium and chemiluminescence-based detection of the resulting photoproducts. The limit of detection thus achieved is 40 mug l(-1). The detector response is linear up to a 5 mg l(-1) asulam concentration and the throughput is 30 samples h(-1). In parallel tests, oxidation with alkaline ferricyanide was also assessed and t…

A tandem-flow assembly for the chemiluminometric determination of hydroquinone

2003

A direct chemiluminescent procedure for determination of hydroquinone based on the emergent flow methodology known as multicommutation or tandem-flow is presented for first time. The manifold was based on a set of three channels and three solenoid valves; and, the determination was performed at 60degreesC and at flow-rate of 7.5 ml min(-1). The complete cycle lasted 35 s, which resulted in a sample flow trough of 103 h(-1). The chemical process was the hydroquinone oxidation with the system sulphuric acid-potassium permanganate; and the light emission was clearly enhanced by the presence of quinine sulphate and benzalkonium chloride reaching a detection limit of 30 Rg l(-1). The dynamic int…

Photochemical-chemiliminometric determination of aldicarb in a fully automated multicommutation based flow-assembly

2004

[EN] A sensitive and fully automated method for determination of aldicarb in technical formulations (Temik) and mineral waters is proposed. The automation of the flow-assembly is based on the multicommutation approach, which uses a set of solenoid valves acting as independent switchers. The operating cycle for obtaining a typical analytical transient signal can be easily programmed by means of a home-made software running in the Windows environment. The manifold is provided with a photoreactor consisting of a 150 cm long x 0.8 mm i.d. piece of PTFE tubing coiled around a 20 W low-pressure mercury lamp. The determination of aldicarb is performed on the basis of the iron(III) catalytic minera…
