In vitro free radical scavenging capacity of thyroid hormones and structural analogues.
2001
It was reported that thyroid hormones decreased Cu(2+)-induced low-density lipoprotein (LDL) oxidation in vitro. Here, we investigated free radical scavenging capacities of thyroid hormones (3,5,3'-tri-iodo-L-thyronine (T(3)), thyroxine (T(4)) and 3,3',5'-tri-iodo-L-thyronine (rT(3))) and structural analogues (L-thyronine (T(0)), 3,5,3'tri-iodothyroacetic acid (TA(3)) and 3,5,3',5'-tetra-iodothyroacetic acid (TA(4))), using three different models of free radical generation. T(0), T(3) and TA(3) slowed down production of conjugated diene and thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances during LDL oxidation by 2,2'-azobis-[2-amidinopropane] (water-soluble), whereas rT(3), T(4) and TA(4) had practi…
Shortwave Ultraviolet Persistent Luminescence of Sr2MgSi2O7: Pr3+
2023
Currently, extensive research activities are devoted to developing persistent phosphors which extend beyond the visible range. In some emerging applications, long-lasting emission of high-energy photons is required; however, suitable materials for the shortwave ultraviolet (UV–C) band are extremely limited. This study reports a novel Sr2MgSi2O7 phosphor doped with Pr3+ ions, which exhibits UV–C persistent luminescence with maximum intensity at 243 nm. The solubility of Pr3+ in the matrix is analysed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and optimal activator concentration is determined. Optical and structural properties are characterised by photoluminescence (PL), thermally stimulated lumi…
Johnson-Nyquist Noise Effects in Neutron Electric-Dipole-Moment Experiments
2021
Magnetic Johnson-Nyquist noise (JNN) originating from metal electrodes, used to create a static electric field in neutron electric-dipole-moment (nEDM) experiments, may limit the sensitivity of measurements. We present here the first dedicated study on JNN applied to a large-scale long-measurement-time experiment with the implementation of a co-magnetometry. In this study, we derive surface- and volume-averaged root-mean-square normal noise amplitudes at a certain frequency bandwidth for a cylindrical geometry. In addition, we model the source of noise as a finite number of current dipoles and demonstrate a method to simulate temporal and three-dimensional spatial dependencies of JNN. The c…
Etude spectroscopique de fibres durcies pour un environnement radiatif sévère
2013
Les nouveaux environnements radiatifs, comme LMJ, ITER, ILE/ELI, HiPER, réacteurs nucléaires des générations III+ et IV, nécessitent le développement de nouveaux composants pour le transport et le traitement des signaux. A cause de l’impossibilité d’utiliser les composants électroniques, la recherche est orientée vers les composants à fibres optiques comme vecteur d’information et aussi comme élément de diagnostic. Ils présentent de nombreux avantages, comme leur relative immunité électromagnétique, faible pois, large bande passante, mais les rayonnements gamma et les neutrons dégradent leur transmission. La dégradation dépend principalement de la composition de la fibre. Ainsi, il a été mo…
