Currently, detection in microarray bioanalysis is based mainly on the use of organic dyes. To overcome photobleaching and spectral overlaps we applied a new type of fluorophore, crystalline europium-doped gadolinium oxide (Eu:Gd2O3) nanoparticles, as labels in immunoassay microarrays. The Eu:Gd2O3
4-(4-Phenoxybenzoyl)benzoic acid derivatives (PBADs) were found to inhibit rat and human alpha-reductase isozymes 1 and 2 in vitro. Chemiluminescence (CL), electron spin resonance, spin trapping techniques, and spectrophotometry were used to examine the effect of PBADs on reactive oxygen species
In order to investigate structure-activity relationships of azasugar series toward metalloproteinases, we synthesized and evaluated several azasugar-based compounds. As a result, it was found that 4-phenoxybenzene derivative 3 having 2R,3R,4R,5S-configurations exhibited most potent inhibitory activities against matrix metalloproteinase-1, -3 and

The soil bacterium Bacillus cereus Tim-r01 efficiently transformed polyaromatic carboxylic acids (PACA) such as 4-biphenylcarboxylic acid (4-BPCA), 4-biphenylacetic acid, and 4-phenoxybenzoic acid into their corresponding amides. The amidation activity was expressed at 37 degrees C (pH 7-8) in the presence
A bacterial strain, Pseudomonas sp. POB 310, was enriched with 4-carboxy biphenyl ether as sole source of carbon and energy. Resting cells of POB 310 co-oxidize a substrate analogue, 4-carboxybenzophenone, yielding 1,2-dihydro-1,2-dihydroxy-4-carboxy-benzophenone. The ether bond of 3- and 4-carboxy biphenyl
