Density functional theory calculations on two glycosides, namely, n-octyl-β-D-glucopyranoside (C(8)O-β-Glc) and n-octyl-β-D-galactopyranoside (C(8)O-β-Gal) were performed for geometry optimization at the B3LYP/6-31G level. Both molecules are stereoisomers (epimers) differing only in the orientation of the hydroxyl group at the C4 position.

The manner of interaction of the coat peptide of the Pf3 phage (Pf3 peptide) with lipid bilayers has been extensively studied. Presently, we designed a derivative of the Pf3 peptide, referred to as the DDRK peptide, and subjected it to

When mixed with water, n-octyl β-D-glucoside forms self-assembled nanostructures, several of which are liquid crystalline and all of which depend on the water/glucoside ratio and temperature. For practical use of these phases, a detailed understanding of the conditions under which

The synergism between low-frequency sonophoresis (LFS) and chemical penetration enhancers (CPEs), especially surfactants, in transdermal enhancement has been investigated extensively since this phenomenon was first observed over a decade ago. In spite of the identifying that the origin of this

The use of extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from decellularized tissue is increasingly frequent in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. However, it is recognized that currently used decellularization procedures have negative effects on ECM integrity. The objective of this study was
