We have studied details of the molecular origin of slow secondary relaxation near T(g) in a series of neat polyalcohols by means of dielectric spectroscopy and (2)H NMR. From glycerol to threitol, xylitol, and sorbitol the appearance of the secondary

Invariant NKT cells (iNKT cells) recognize CD1d/glycolipid complexes. We demonstrate that the nonglycosidic compound threitolceramide efficiently activates iNKT cells, resulting in dendritic cell (DC) maturation and the priming of Ag-specific T and B cells. Threitolceramide-pulsed DCs are more resistant to
A supported liquid membrane (SLM) containing a resorcinarene carrier has been used for the selective transport of erythritol, threitol, ribitol and xylitol from concentrated (1.0-0.01 M) aqueous solutions. The membrane is made of a microporous polytetrafluoroethylene film impregnated with a
Some newly designed surface-active phosphates were investigated with respect to their capacity to inhibit caries lesion formation in vitro. On the labial or buccal surfaces of sound human third molars, windows were prepared for investigation. One half of each window
PM2.5 samples were collected from June to December 2005 in Potsdam, New York and analyzed for polar organic compounds by GC/MS. The major compounds that were identified in the samples included 2-methyltetrols (2-methylthreitol and 2-methylerythritol), levoglucosan, cispinonic acid, and mannitol.
