Gregory W Charville et al.
Biomaterials, 29(30), 4039-4044 (2008-07-29)
The ability of nitric oxide (NO)-releasing xerogels to reduce fibrinogen-mediated adhesion of Staphylococcus aureus, Staphylococcus epidermidis, and Escherichia coli is described. A negative correlation was observed between NO surface flux and bacterial adhesion for each species tested. For S. aureus
Gerald I Richard et al.
Applied spectroscopy, 62(5), 476-480 (2008-05-24)
The spectroscopic properties of a chiral boronic acid based resorcinarene macrocycle employed for chiral analysis were investigated. Specifically, the emission and excitation characteristics of tetraarylboronate resorcinarene macrocycle (TBRM) and its quantum yield were evaluated. The chiral selector TBRM was investigated
Ilaria Massarelli et al.
European journal of medicinal chemistry, 44(9), 3658-3664 (2009-03-11)
A dataset comprising 55 chemicals with hepatocarcinogenic potency indices was collected from the Carcinogenic Potency Database with the aim of developing QSAR models enabling prediction of the above unwanted property for New Chemical Entities. The dataset was rationally split into
Anita Toulmin et al.
Journal of medicinal chemistry, 51(13), 3720-3730 (2008-06-19)
Partition coefficients were measured for 47 compounds in the hexadecane/water ( P hxd) and 1-octanol/water ( P oct) systems. Some types of hydrogen bond acceptor presented by these compounds to the partitioning systems are not well represented in the literature
Alfonso Pérez-Garrido et al.
Bioorganic & medicinal chemistry, 17(2), 896-904 (2008-12-06)
This paper reports a QSAR study for predicting the complexation of a large and heterogeneous variety of substances (233 organic compounds) with beta-cyclodextrins (beta-CDs). Several different theoretical molecular descriptors, calculated solely from the molecular structure of the compounds under investigation
