Analysis of volatile organic compounds released from the decay of surrogate human models simulating victims of collapsed buildings by thermal desorption-comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography-time of flight mass spectrometry
(2015)
Field experiments were devised to mimic the entrapment conditions under the rubble of collapsed buildings aiming to investigate the evolution of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) during the early dead body decomposition ...
Development and evaluation of a QSPR model for the prediction of diamagnetic susceptibility
(2008)
A novel QSPR model is developed and evaluated for the prediction of diamagnetic susceptibility. The model was produced using the Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) technique on a database that consists of 406 organic compounds ...
Thorium determination in water samples by liquid scintillation counting after its separation by cloud point extraction
(2011)
The aim of this study is the separation and pre-concentration of thorium from aqueous solutions by cloud point extraction (CPE) and its the radiometric determination by liquid scintillation counting (LSC). For CPE, tributyl ...
A magnetostructural investigation of an abrupt spin transition for 1-phenyl-3-trifluoromethyl-1,4-dihydrobenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-4-yl
(2014)
1-Phenyl-3-trifluoromethyl-1,4-dihydrobenzo[e][1,2,4]triazin-4-yl is the first example of a hydrazyl radical that shows a reversible sharp spin transition fully completed within 5(1) K. The nominally first-order transition ...
Uranium determination in water samples by liquid scintillation counting after cloud point extraction
(2010)
The aim of this study is the radiometric determination of uranium in waters by liquid scintillation counting (LSC) after pre-concentration of the element by cloud point extraction (CPE). For CPE, tributyl phosphate (TBP) ...
Vanadium chemistry and biochemistry of relevance for use of vanadium compounds as antidiabetic agents
(1995)
The stability of 11 vanadium compounds is tested under physiological conditions and in administration fluids. Several compounds including those currently used as insulin-mimetic agents in animal and human studies are stable ...
Adsorption of hexavalent chromium on dunite
(2011)
The paper presents and discusses the effect of various physicochemical parameters (e.g. pH, ionic strength, Cr(VI) initial concentration, amount of the adsorbent, temperature and contact time between metal ion and adsorbent) ...
Insulin-mimetic action of vanadium compounds on osteoblast-like cells in culture
(1997)
Vanadium compounds mimic insulin actions in different cell types. The present study concerns the insulin-like effects of three vanadium(V) derivatives and one vanadium(IV) complex on osteoblast-like (UMR106 and MC3T3E1) ...
Identification of a potent activator of Akt phosphorylation from a novel series of phenolic, picolinic, pyridino, and hydroxamic zinc(II) complexes
(2011)
The discovery of small-molecule modulators of signaling pathways is currently a particularly active area of research. We aimed at developing unprecedented metal-based activators of Akt signaling which can potentially find ...
Novel approach to fast determination of cholesterol oxidation products in Cypriot foodstuffs using ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry
(2016)
This paper reports the development and validation of a new method based on ultra-performance LC coupled to MS/MS for the simultaneous determination of four cholesterol oxidation products (COPs) in foodstuffs in only 4.1 ...
