Dimethylsulfoxide as carrier in enzyme cytochemistry.
1971
Addition of dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO) to the incubation medium of succinate dehydrogenase in a concentration of 10% enhances the staining reaction in the hyphae of the fungus Cercosporella herpotrichoides after an incubation period of 15 min. Controls without DMSO remain unstained. DMSO causes a rapid penetration of the components of the medium through the mucilage that covers the hyphae.
Ultrasound-assisted green solvent extraction of high-added value compounds from microalgae Nannochloropsis spp.
2015
Abstract The aim of this work was to investigate ultrasound (US)-assisted green solvent extraction of valuable compounds from the microalgae Nannochloropsis spp. Individual green solvents (water, ethanol (EtOH), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)) and binary mixture of solvents (water-DMSO and water-EtOH) were used for the extraction procedures. Maximum total phenolic compounds yield ( Y p ≈ 0.33) was obtained after US pre-treatment ( W = 400 W, 15 min), being almost 5-folds higher compared to that found for the untreated samples and aqueous extraction ( Y p ≈ 0.06). The highest yield of total chlorophylls ( Y c ≈ 0.043) was obtained after US ( W = 400 W, 7.5 min), being more than 9-folds highe…
Synthese von 2-Acyloxy- und 2-Alkyloxy-3-ketoglycalen und ihren Bromaddukten
1983
Die an den Hydroxygruppen acetyl-, pivaloyl- und methylgeschutzten 2-Hydroxy-3-ketoglycale 5a, 5b bzw. 11 werden durch Oxidation der entsprechenden 1-O-Acylglucopyranosen 3a, 3b bzw. 9 an der freien 3-Hydroxygruppe mit Dimethylsulfoxid/Acetanhydrid oder Chlorsulfonylisocyanat hergestellt und charakterisiert. Nur beim Acetylderivat 3a verlaufen die Oxidation und die Eliminierung des 1-Acetyloxysubstituenten in einem Schritt. Beim Pivaloylderivat 3b und beim Methylderivat 9 mus die Eliminierung aus der 3-Ulose 4 bzw. 10 mit Diazabicycloundecen (DBU) vervollstandigt werden. – Die geschutzten Hex-1-enopyran-3-ulosen 5a, 5b und 11 addieren Brom stereoselektiv unter Bildung der D-ribo-konfigurier…
A rapid and cost-efficient DMSO-based method for isolating DNA from cultured lichen photobionts
2010
We have developed a simple and fast procedure for the purification of PCR-quality DNA from cultured lichen photobionts. This new one-step method uses the solvent dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) combined with heat treatment to chemically breakdown algal and plant tissues. The DMSO-DNA extracts may be directly precipitated and purified by standard techniques in a total time of approximately 30 min. Compared to other DNA extraction protocols, the DMSO-based method suppresses the need for liquid nitrogen, any extraction buffer, grinding, phenol, and long incubation or centrifugation steps, thereby considerably reducing the possibility of contamination. In addition, minimal amounts of starting materia…
Role of Phase Behavior and Atomization in the Supercritical Antisolvent Precipitation
2003
An experimental study on supercritical antisolvent (SAS) precipitation has been performed to gain insight into the role of phase behavior and atomization in controlling morphology and dimension of precipitates. The mixture yttrium acetate/dimethyl sulfoxide has been used as the main model system and supercritical CO 2 has been used as the antisolvent. Two SAS apparatuses (laboratory and pilot scale) with two injector arrangements and operating with various injector diameters in the range 60-500 μm have been used. The results showed that operating above the mixture critical point (MCP) of the ternary mixture yttrium acetate/dimethyl sulfoxide/ carbon dioxide, sub-micrometric particles are ge…
DNA oxidation products determined with repair endonucleases in mammalian cells: Types, basal levels and influence of cell proliferation
1999
Purified repair endonucleases such as Fpg protein, endonuclease III and IV allow a very sensitive quantification of various types of oxidative DNA modifications in mammalian cells. By means of these assays, the numbers of base modifications sensitive to Fpg protein, which include 8-hydroxyguanine (8-oxoG), were determined to be less than 0.3 per 10(6) bp in several types of untreated cultured mammalian cells and human lymphocytes and less than 10 per 10(6) bp in mitochondrial DNA from rat and porcine liver. Oxidative 5,6-dihydropyrimidine derivatives sensitive to endonuclease III and sites of base loss sensitive to endonuclease IV or exonuclease III were much less frequent than Fpg-sensitiv…
Liquid structure of dibutyl sulfoxide
2016
We present experimental (X-ray diffraction) data on the structure of liquid dibutyl sulfoxide at 320 K and rationalise the data by means of molecular dynamics simulations. Not unexpectedly, DBSO bearing a strong dipolar moiety and two medium length, apolar butyl chains, this compound was characterised by a distinct degree of polar vs. apolar structural differentiation at the nm spatial scale, which was fingerprinted by a low Q peak in its X-ray diffraction pattern. Similar to, but to a larger extent than its shorter chain family members (such as DMSO), DBSO was also characterised by an enhanced dipole-dipole correlation, which was responsible for a moderate Kirkwood correlation factor as we…
Determination of Individual Gibbs Energies of Anion Transfer and Excess Gibbs Energies Using an Electrochemical Method Based on Insertion Electrochem…
2011
A method is presented to determine, individually and with minimal extra-thermodynamic assumptions, the Gibbs energy for anion transfer between two solvents using solid state electrochemistry of alkynyldiphosphine dinuclear Au(I) complexes (AuC2R)2PPh2C6H4PPh2 (L1, R = Fc; L2, R = C6H4Fc) and the heterometallic Au(I)–Cu(I) [{Au3Cu2(C2R)6}Au3(PPh2C6H4PPh2)3](PF6)2 (L3, R = Fc; L4, R = C6H4Fc) cluster complexes containing ferrocenyl units. These compounds exhibit a well-defined, essentially reversible solid-state oxidation in contact with different electrolytes, based on ferrocenyl-centered oxidation processes involving anion insertion. Voltammetric data can be used for a direct measurement of…
Influence of Copper(II) and Nickel(II) Ions in the Topology of Systems Based on a Flexible Bis-Oxamate and Bipyridine Building Blocks
2014
Single crystals of the mononuclear bis-oxamate nickel(II) complex [Ni(bipy)(H2edpba)]·dmso (1) are obtained by reacting [Ni(bipy)Cl2]·H2O and the flexible K2(H2edpba) ligand [bipy = 2,2′-bipyridine; H4edpba = N,N′-2,2′-ethylenediphenylenebis(oxamic acid)]. The reaction of 1 with copper(II) ions resulted in two products in which the replacement of the nickel(II) ion by copper(II) took place: the chain compound [Cu(bipy)(H2edpba)]n·3nH2O·ndmso [dmso = dimethyl sulfoxide] (2) and the analogous chain compound without dmso crystallization molecules [Cu(bipy)(H2edpba)]n·1.5nH2O (3a) in its polycrystalline form. The reaction of [Cu(bipy)Cl2] and K2(H2edpba) yielded single crystals of [Cu(bipy)(H2e…
Slow Relaxation of the Magnetization in Anilato-Based Dy(III) 2D Lattices.
2021
The search for two- and three-dimensional materials with slow relaxation of the magnetization (single-ion magnets, SIM and single-molecule magnets, SMM) has become a very active area in recent years. Here we show how it is possible to prepare two-dimensional SIMs by combining Dy(III) with two different anilato-type ligands (dianions of the 3,6-disubstituted-2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone: C6O4X22−, with X = H and Cl) in dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso). The two compounds prepared, formulated as: [Dy2(C6O4H2)3(dmso)2(H2O)2]·2dmso·18H2O (1) and [Dy2(C6O4Cl2)3(dmso)4]·2dmso·2H2O (2) show distorted hexagonal honeycomb layers with the solvent molecules (dmso and H2O) located in the interlayer space and…
