The underlying mechanisms and effector molecules involved in mediating in utero smoke exposure-induced effects on the developing lung are only beginning to be understood. However, the effects of a newly discovered category of smoke, i.e., thirdhand smoke (THS), on the

The stepwise and concerted pathways for the McLafferty rearrangement of the radical cations of butanal (Bu(+)) and 3-fluorobutanal (3F-Bu(+)) are investigated with density functional theory (DFT) and ab initio methods in conjunction with the 6-311+G(d,p) basis set. A concerted transition

Bovine soles and shavings from the heel were used in laboratory tests that examined the softening and swelling effects of rainwater, cow slurry (faeces plus urine), urine, silage effluent, and washings from recently laid concrete. Formalin, glutaraldehyde and butyraldehyde were
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 (ALDH1A1) catalyzes the oxidation of toxic aldehydes to carboxylic acids. Physiologic levels of Mg(2+) ions decrease ALDH1 activity in part by increasing NADH binding affinity to the enzyme. By using time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, we have resolved the
Genetically encoded probes show great promise in permitting functional imaging of specified neuronal populations in the intact nervous system, yet their in vivo application has been limited. Here, we have targeted expression of synapto-pHluorin, a pH-sensitive protein that reports synaptic
