Electrochemical Determination of Hydrogen Peroxide and Bicarbonate Using Peroxidase Activity of Copper, Zinc Superoxide Dismutase on Carbon Nanotube, Polypyrrole Nanocomposite Modified Pt Electrode (2015)
Journal Article

Measurement of hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2) and bicarbonate (HCO– 3) are essential in human pathology and pathophysiology as it provides valuable information with regard to signalling and prognostic of various diseases viz. oxidative stress and cardiova...

Heterogeneous photocatalytic C–C coupling: mechanism of plasmon-mediated reductive dimerization of benzyl bromides by supported gold nanoparticles (2015)
Journal Article

The use of gold nanoparticles supported on TiO2 (Au@TiO2) as photocatalysts was extended to include photoinduced reductive C–C coupling. Surface plasmon excitation of supported AuNPs in the presence of an amine leads to the C–C coupling of a variety...

Synthesis and Intracellular Redox Cycling of Natural Quinones and Their Analogues and Identification of Indoleamine-2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) as Potential Target for Anticancer Activity (2015)
Journal Article

Natural quinones, often linked with cellular oxidation processes, also exhibit pronounced biological activity. In particular, the structurally unique isothiazolo-naphthoquinone, aulosirazole, isolated from blue-green alga, possesses selective antitum...

Stereoselective synthesis of highly substituted tetrahydrofurans by diverted carbene O–H insertion reaction (2015)
Journal Article

Copper or rhodium catalyzed reaction of diazocarbonyl compounds with β-hydroxyketones gives highly substituted tetrahydrofurans with excellent diastereoselectivity, under mild conditions, in a single step process that starts as a carbene O–H insertio...

Recruitment and Immobilization of a Fluorinated Biomarker Across an Interfacial Phospholipid Film using a Fluorocarbon Gas (2015)
Journal Article

Perfluorohexane gas when introduced in the air atmosphere above a film of phospholipid self-supported on an aqueous solution of C2F5-labeled compounds causes the recruitment and immobilization of the latter in the interfacial film. When the phospholi... Read More about Recruitment and Immobilization of a Fluorinated Biomarker Across an Interfacial Phospholipid Film using a Fluorocarbon Gas.

Acupuncture or low frequency infrared treatment for low back pain in Chinese patients: a discrete choice experiment (2015)
Journal Article

Acupuncture is a popular but controversial treatment option for low back pain. In China, it is practised as traditional Chinese medicine; other treatment strategies for low back pain are commonly practised as Western medicine. Research on patient pre...

High-pressure rheological analysis of CO2-induced melting point depression and viscosity reduction of poly(?-caprolactone) (2015)
Journal Article

High-pressure rheology has been used to assess the effects of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) on the melting point (Tm) and viscosity of poly (?-caprolactone) (PCL) over a range of temperatures and pressures up to 300 bar over a wide range of sh...

Preparation of iron-enriched baker's yeast and its efficiency in recovery of rats from dietary iron deficiency (2015)
Journal Article

OBJECTIVES Iron is an important mineral, essential for the health and function of mammalian cells. Despite its key role, iron deficiency in humans is common worldwide, often leading to significant health issues within the population. The aim of th...

Direct Synthesis of 5-Aryl Barbituric Acids by Rhodium(II)-Catalyzed Reactions of Arenes with Diazo Compounds (2015)
Journal Article

A commercially available rhodium(II) complex catalyzes the direct arylation of 5?diazobarbituric acids with arenes, allowing straightforward access to 5?aryl barbituric acids. Free N--H groups are tolerated on the barbituric acid, with no complicatio...

Calculating singlet excited states: comparison with fast time-resolved infrared spectroscopy of coumarins (2015)
Journal Article

In contrast to the ground state, the calculation of the infrared (IR) spectroscopy of molecular singlet excited states represents a substantial challenge. Here we use the structural IR fingerprint of the singlet excited states of a range of coumarin...
