Comparison of 40 and 60 milliliters of contrast in assessment of the carotid artery by computed tomography angiography.

30 Oct 2008 BACKGROUND: Although fast acquisition of multidetector-row computed tomography (MDCT) can make it possible to acquire sufficient early vascular enhancement using small volumes and high concentrations of contrast material (CM), there are still some ... Read more...

One-pot synthesis of antiviral acyclovir and other nucleosides derivatives using doped natural phosphate as lewis acid catalyst.

29 Sep 2008 Natural phosphate doped with iodine or potassium iodide is an active catalyst for the one-pot synthesis of acyclonucleosides. To demonstrate the utility of the new catalyst system, the highly important antiviral drug acyclovir was directly and ... Read more...

Flow-injection method for the determination of iodide/iodine using Ru(bpy)(3)(3+)-NADH chemiluminescence detection.

30 Aug 2008 A two-channel flow-injection (FI) method is reported for the determination of iodide and iodine by its enhancement effect on the Ru(bpy)(3)(3+)-NADH chemiluminescence (CL) system. The limit of detection (3 s of blank) was 1.0 x 10(-9) mol/L ... Read more...
