Two new compounds 1-(4-tert-butyl-benzenesulfonyl)-4-[5-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-yl]-piperazine ( I ) and 1-[5-(4-methoxyphenyl)-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-yl]-4-[(4- bromo ) benzene sulfonyl ]-piperazine ( II ) of 1-[5-(4-methoxy-phenyl)-[1,3,4]oxadiazol-2-yl]- piperazine derivatives have been synthesized and the structures were confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction studies. The computational density functional theory (DFT) calculations have been carried out to shed light on reactive sites for electrophilic and nucleophilic nature of the molecules. Both the compounds were crystallized in the monocliniccrystal system, in P 2 1 /n space group wherein the piperazine ring in both the structures adopts a chair conformation. Both the compounds I and II exhibit intermolecular hydrogen bonds of the type c—H…O and contribute to the crystal packing. Further, the molecular Hirshfeld surface analysis was carried out which reveals the nature of intermolecular contacts, the fingerprint plot provides the information about the percentage contribution and revealed that the H…H (54.7% for compound I and 40.2% for compound II ) interactions has the major contribution.

Liver fibrosis is the center of diagnosis and management of essentially all chronic liver diseases. While liver biopsy examination still has a role in diagnosis and drug development, it is replaced by non-invasive assessments of liver biopsy in majority of the clinical scenarios. Radiological approaches, namely transient elastography, acoustic radiation force impulse imaging, shear wave elastography, magnetic resonance elastography provide accurate diagnosis of advanced fibrosis and cirrhosis. Serum test formulae based on common laboratory parameters or more specialized parameters including those commercially available panels FibroTest?, FibroMeter? and Enhanced Liver Fibrosis are also available. combining different modalities may further improve the accuracy. The role of all these non-invasive assessments has been further expanded from diagnostic to prognostic, e.g. risk prediction of hepatocellular carcinoma (Hcc) by LSM-Hcc score. Treatment of liver fibrosis can be achieved by controlling the underlying diseases, with chronic viral hepatitis as the most established disease model. currently there are multiple clinical trials evaluating different treatment options to improve fibrosis in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Specific anti-fibrotic treatment targets e.g. direct downregulation of hepatic stellate cell, collagen synthesis inhibitors and transforming growth factor-βantagonists have been tested in laboratory and pending further studies in clinical settings.

We have developed deposition of vertically aligned graphene sheets on cu foils by surface wave microwave plasma cVD and the transfer from cu foil to quartz substrate to evaluate optical reflectances and transmittances of the inherent vertical aligned phene sheets. Both reflectance and transmittance spectra are almost independent of incident angles in the range between 300 and 800nm. The reflectance is lower than 0.067%, which is lower than those of the commercial black alumite plate. The transmittances are less than the detection limit of the system. It is considered that the obtained low reflectance is attributed to the unique structure of the vertically aligned graphene sheets.

This research presented a mathematical model to calculate the consumption of diesel oil and the respective emissions of cO2from 41 agricultural crops (38 permanent and 3 temporary) in Brazil. It contains data obtained between 2000 and 2012, from accreditedbibliographic sources. In addition to spreadsheets containing diesel consumption, resulting from the analysis of the productive processes,this research presents data on energy conversion and forest development used to subsidize cO2 emissions and mitigation *** for c sequestration of the atmosphere, four options of forest projects were systematized: (1) reforestation with fast growingspecies; (2) forest protection projects, with enrichment plantations; (3) implementation of agroforestry systems (1 st cycle); and (4) urbanafforestation projects (streets and parks). Such alternatives are in line with the proposals of the "sectorial plan for mitigation andadaptation to climate change for the consolidation of a low c emission in agriculture", of the Brazilian Agricultural Researchcorporation (EMBRAPA). The results show that three temporary products (soybean, sugarcane and cotton) are responsible, for at least,85% of all cO2 emissions, comparatively the low consumption of diesel oil verified in the management of the 38 permanent productsstudied in this research. Therefore, in order to contribute to the reduction of the release of cO2 into the atmosphere, perennial crops andecologically rational extractivism should be more encouraged and more supported by the public authorities.

To classify the chemical form of stable carbon released from unirradiated stainless steel, which is the material used to simulate irradiated stainless steel, under highly alkaline and low-oxygen conditions, type 304 and 316 stainless-steel powders were immersed in 0.005 M NaOH solution. Gas and liquid samples were analyzed to identify the chemical form of carbon released from the stainless steel. The liquid samples were divided into unfiltered and filtered samples. In the gaseous phase, hydrocarbons such as methane and ethane were not detected. In the liquid phase, carboxylic acids (formic and acetic acids) were detected. However, the sum of the carbon concentrations of the carboxylic acids was significantly lower than the total organiccarbon (TOc) concentration in the unfiltered samples. In the filtered samples, the TOcconcentration was closer to the sum of the carbon concentrations than that for the unfiltered samples. In addition, the concentrations of the metallic elements (particularly Fe and cr), which are the main constituents of the stainless steels, tended to decrease upon ultrafiltration. This suggests that the sorption of carbon on metalliccompounds (e.g., colloidal iron hydroxide) may have occurred.

Pyrolysis temperature and feedstock type used to produce biochar influence the physicochemical properties of the obtained product, which in turn display a range of results when used as soil amendment. From soil carbon (c) sequestration strategy to nutrient source, biochar is used to enhance soil properties and to improve agricultural production. However, contrasting effects are observed from biochar application to soil results from a wide range of biochar’s properties in combination with specific environmental conditions. Therefore, elucidation on the effect of pyrolysis conditions and feedstock type on biochar properties may provide basic information to the understanding of soil and biochar interactions. In this study, biochar was produced from four different agricultural organic residues: Poultry litter, sugarcane straw, rice hull and sawdust pyrolysed at final temperatures of 350°c, 450°c, 550°c and 650°c. The effect of temperature and feedstock type on the variability of physicochemical properties of biochars was evaluated through measurements of pH, electrical conductivity, cation exchange capacity, macronutrient content, proximate and elemental analyses, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and thermogravimetric analyses. Additionally, an incubation trial was carried under controlled conditions to determine the effect of biochar stability on cO2-eq emissions. Results showed that increasing pyrolysis temperature supported biochar stability regardless of feedstock, however, agricultural properties varied widely both as an effect of temperature and feedstock. Animal manure biochar showed higher potential as nutrient source rather than a c sequestration strategy. Improving the knowledge on the influence of pyrolysis temperature and feedstock type on the final properties of biochar will enable the use of better tailored materials that correspond to the expected results while considering its interactions with environmental conditions.

Selective hydrogenation of benzophenone to benzhydrol is industrially relevant. In the current work, selective hydrogenation of 3,4-dimethoxybenzophenone (3,4-DMBP) to 3,4-dimethoxybenzhydrol (3,4-DMBH) was investigated over 5% w/w Pd/c and 5% w/w Pt/c as catalysts in a slurry reactor. The effects of hydrogen partial pressure (0.2-1MPa), catalyst loading (2.0x10(-4) to 8.0x10(-4)g/cm(3)), initial concentration of 3,4-dimethoxybenzophenone (5.0x10(-6) to 1.5x10(-4)mol/cm(3)) and temperature (40-70 degrees c) on rate of reaction and selectivity were studied. Effect of solvent such as methanol, ethanol, 2-propanol and tetrahydrofuran (THF) was also investigated. 5% w/w Pd/c was the better catalyst with THF as the best solvent, which gave 100 % conversion and 80 % selectivity in 1h for 0.5MPa hydrogen pressure at 60 degrees c. The Langmuir-Hinshelwood-Hougen-Watson model was fitted. The intrinsic kinetics and mechanism of hydrogenation were established.

Background/purpose: Noninvasive assessment of esophageal varices (EVs), their size and bleeding stigmata may reduce endoscopic burden, cost and drawbacks. We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of noninvasive fibrosis scores (AAR, APRI, FIB-4, King and VITRO scores) in predicting the presence of EVs and high risk varices needing treatment (VNT) in HcV-related cirrhosis of Egyptian patients. Methods: This prospective study included 154 HcV-related advanced compensated cirrhotic patients with no history of bleeding who underwent screening endoscopy for EVs. AAR, APRI, FIB-4, King and VITRO scores were assessed. Results: Esophageal varices were found in 120 patients (77.9%) and VNT in 92 patients (59.7%). Apart from AAR, all scores demonstrated statistically significant correlations with the presence and the size of EVs. Using area under receiver operating characteristiccurve (AUc), these scores were good predictors for the presence of EVs and VNT, where VITRO score had the highest AUc (0.920 and 0.900) and accuracy (97.1% and 87%), sensitivity (75, 82.6%), specificity (100, 93.5%), PPV (100, 95%) and NPV (53.2, 78.4%) with cutoffs >1.3 and >1.8 respectively. conclusion: Noninvasive fibrosis scores can predict the presence of EVs and VNT. VITRO score was the best predictor with higher accuracy for clinical applicability than studied scores.
