Um dos principais empecilhos para o controle da doença é o desenvolvimento de resistência do parasito aos fármacos comumente usados, o que torna urgente a pesquisa por novos antimaláricos. Nesse contexto, análogos de cloroquina acoplados a 6-mercaptopurina e a alquil aminas e complexos de platina foram avaliados quanto a atividade antimalárica utilizando o teste supressivo descrito por Peters em modelo murino de infecção por Plasmodium berghei NK65. Tais análogos exibiram altos valores de supressão da parasitemia, entre 60% e 94% em comparação com o controle não tradado. Considerando o papel imunossupressor de derivados de purina, o análogo de cloroquina acoplado a 6-mercaptopurina MPQUI foi avaliado quanto a aspectos imunológicos (contagem de leucócitos específicos, dosagem de TNF-α e IL-10), não interferindo na resposta imune tendo como base os parâmetros analisados. Portanto, esses análogos devem ser objetos de futuras pesquisas, podendo fornecer novos antimaláricos, já que apresentaram-se promissores e não influenciaram a resposta imune nos parâmetros analisados. / Malaria is caused by protozoan parasites of the genus Plasmodium and is responsible for 250 million cases and 1 million deaths annually. One of the main obstacles for the disease control is the development of resistance by the parasite to the commonly used antimalarials, what makes the research for new ones urgent. In this context, chloroquine analogs attached to 6-mercaptopurine and to alkyl-amines and platinum complexes were evaluated for their antimalarial activity using the 4-day suppressive test described by Peters which was carried out in mice infected with Plasmodium berghei NK65. These analogs exhibited high values of parasitemia suppression, which ranged from 60% to 94% in comparison to untreated control. Considering the immune suppressor role of purine derivates, the chloroquine analog attached to 6-mercaptopurine MPQUI was evaluated for immunological aspects (specific leukocytes count, TNF-α and IL-10 measurements in sera of mice), revealing no interference in the immune response considering these parameters. Therefore, these analogs may be objects of further research, aiming at new antimalarials, since they were shown to be promising and did not influence the immune response in the parameters analyzed.

194	Valorisation enzymatique des huiles végétales Severac, Etienne 21 October 2010 (has links) Cette étude a porté sur le développement de procédés continus performants de production d’esters à partir de l’huile de tournesol hautement oléique vierge ou raffinée en réacteurs enzymatiques à lit fixe, très productifs et stables dans le temps. Un procédé de transestérification continue en réacteur à lit fixe utilisant Novozyme 435 (lipase B de candida antarctica immobilisée sur Lewatit VP OC 1600), biocatalyseur non régio-spécifique, a été optimisé pour transformer de l’huile vierge de tournesol hautement oléique en esters butyliques. Les phénomènes de partition des composés polaires (phospholipides présents initialement dans l’huile, du glycérol co-produits etc.) entre milieu réactionnel et support enzymatique ont été gérés grâce à l’utilisation de tert-butanol, un solvant polaire. Les conditions assurant le meilleur compromis entre stabilité, productivité et rendements de production d’esters ont été obtenues pour une concentration initiale en huile de 500mM et un rapport molaire entre substrats de 5. De telles conditions permettent une productivité de 13,8 tonnes.an-1.kg de Novozyme 435-1. Le réacteur ainsi dimensionné s’est avéré stable pendant 50 jours consécutifs sans aucune perte d’activité, permettant de minimiser le coût élevé de l’enzyme. L’originalité du procédé est l’utilisation d’huiles vierges contenant des antioxydants naturels (phospholipides, tocophérols etc.). Nous avons démontré que ces composés mineurs sont préservés au cours du procédé de transestérification. Cela confère aux esters formés de remarquables propriétés de résistances à l’oxydation.La pertinence économique du procédé a été améliorée grâce au développement d’un nouveau biocatalyseur sur support hydrophobe (l’Accurel MP) permettant d’éviter toute adsorption de composés polaires. Une analyse économique du procédé (maximisation de la valeur nette actualisée) a permis de rationaliser les conditions optimales d’immobilisation. Une économie de l’ordre de 50% sur les coûts générés tout au long du temps de vie du procédé a pu ainsi être obtenue. En conditions de transestérification continue, aucune différence dans le profil de produits par rapport à Novozyme 435 n’a été observée. Finalement, une alternative à la transestérification directe de l‘huile a été envisagée. Une première phase d’hydrolyse de l’huile est suivie d’un procédé de récupération des acides gras qui sont dans un second temps estérifiés enzymatiquement. Pour réaliser cette dernière étape, le meilleur système réactionnel s’est avéré être le milieu sans solvant. Un réacteur continu d’estérification de l’acide oléique avec l’isobutanol a été optimisé. Cela a permis un réacteur stable pendant 54 jours consécutifs et respectant les critères des biotechnologies blanches. Une productivité annuelle de 126 tonnes.kg de Novozyme 435-1 a été atteinte. Cela représente une amélioration de la productivité d’un facteur 9,2 par rapport au procédé de transestérification développée précédemment / This work focused on the development of efficient continuous processes for the production of esters from crude or refined high oleic sunflower oil with enzymatic packed bed reactor presenting high levels of productivity and stability. A process of continuous transesterification in packed bed reactor using Novozyme 435 (lipase B from Candida antarctica immobilized onto Lewatit VP OC 1600), a non-specific biocatalyst, was optimized to transformation of high-oleic sunflower oil into butylic esters. The phenomena of partition of polar compounds (phospholipids found in crude oils, produced glycerol etc.) between the reaction medium and the enzymatic support were managed using tert-butanol, a polar solvent. The conditions that enabled the best compromise between stability, productivity and production yields were obtained with an initial oil concentration of 500 mM and a molar ratio between co-substrates of 5. Such conditions enabled a productivity of 13.8 tons.kg-1.kg of Novozyme 435-1 to be reached. The reactor exhibited great stability for 50 consecutive days without any loss of activity. That enabled to minimize the high costs of the enzyme. The novelty of the process was the use of crude oils, containing high levels of natural antioxidants (phospholipids, tocopherols etc.). We demonstrated that these minor components of oils were preserved during the transesterification process. It conferred the synthesized esters some remarkable properties of oxidative resistance.The economic relevance of the process was improved thanks to the development of a new biocatalyst onto a very hydrophobic support (Accurel MP) in order to avoid any adsorptions of polar compounds. An economic analysis (maximisation of the net present value) enabled to rationalize the optimal immobilisation conditions. Over the whole process, it enabled a 50% saving on the global expenses.__ In continuous transesterification conditions, no difference in the product profile was noticed between the new biocatalyst and Novozyme 435.Finally, an alternative to direct transesterification of oil was considered. A first stage of oil hydrolysis is followed by a process of fatty acid recovery and a stage of enzymatic esterification into esters. In order to realize/complete this last stage, the best reaction system was a solvent-free medium. A continuous reactor for the esterification of oleic acid with isobutanol was optimized. It enabled a reactor stable/a stable reactor for 54 consecutive days, respecting the conditions of white biotechnologies. An annual productivity of 126 tons.year-1.kg of Novozyme 435-1 was reached. That represented a productivity improvement by a factor of 9.2 in comparison with the transesterification process.

195	Towards Selective Ethylene Tetramerization Shaikh, Yacoob January 2012 (has links) There is an increasing trend towards advancing the understanding and development of ethylene oligomerization catalysts, both in academia and industry. The metal of choice in this chemistry is invariably chromium, which has shown great versatility in selective trimerization/tetramerization, non-selective oligomerization and polymerization of ethylene. While much success has been achieved in ethylene trimerization, the same con not be said about tetramerization catalysis. Aminophosphine based ligands have demonstrated their ability towards selective 1-octene production, however, the popular PNP catalyst is able to achieve only 70% selectivity. In order to explore the possibility of developing and enhancing the selectivity of chromium based ethylene tetramerization catalyst, this thesis work was undertaken. The ligand systems we chose for our work were bidentate aminophosphine based (PN(CH2)nNP), which has yielded interesting selective oligomerization. Subtle modifications were found to result in drastic changes in selectivity, from tetramerization (PN(CH2)3NP) to trimerization (PN(CH2)2NP). We managed to successfully develop the first truly selective (over 90%) 1-octene catalyst with polymer-free behavior. Further modifications on the ligand framework, where one atom of Si was used to link the two NP units, resulted in non-selective oligomerization, in which case we determined that the oxidation-state of chromium is a key player. We explored other modifications on our selective ligands in which one of the arms on the bidentate ligand was replaced with a base-donor amine, phosphine or pyridine, and resulted in interesting selectivity changes. The final modification that we tested was a novel N(CH2)2P ligand and found it to be a highly active, non-selective oligomerization catalyst.

197	Pulsformdiskrimination und Lichtausbeutemessungen von LAB-basierten Flüssigszintillatoren Kögler, Toni 28 February 2011 (has links) Die Grundlage vieler zukünftiger Flüssigszintillator-Neutrinoexperimente (SNO+, Daya Bay, LENA) ist das Lösungsmittel Lineare-Alkyl-Benzene (LAB, C6H5CnH2n+1, n = 10 - 13). Zusammen mit dem weit verbreiteten Szintillator 2,5-Diphenyloxazole (PPO) ist es ein farb- und geruchsloses Detektormaterial mit hohem Flammpunkt. Im Vergleich zu toluol- oder xylolbasierten Szintillatoren ist LAB+PPO preiswert und nicht gesundheitsschädlich. Die Eigenschaften von LAB machen es ebenfalls interessant für die Anwendung an nELBE, die Neutronenfugzeitanlage im Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden - Rossendorf. Ein neuer Ansatz zur Bestimmung der Lichtausbeute im niederenergetischen Bereich (bis 2 MeV) wird vorgestellt. Kombiniert wurden Messungen mit (quasi) monoenergetischen Gammastrahlungs-Prüfstrahlern und einem in dieser Arbeit aufgebauten Compton-Spektrometer. Letzteres ermöglicht die Bestimmung der Lichtausbeute bis zu 5 keVee. Der Birks-Parameter wurde für eine Lösung von LAB + 3 g/l PPO sowie für den Flüssigszintillator NE-213 bestimmt. Die relative Lichtausbeute in Bezug auf letzteren konnte mit diesen Messmethoden ebenfalls ermittelt werden. Zur spektralen Analyse des Lumineszenzlichtes wurden Messungen an Fluoreszenz- und UV/VIS- Spektrometern durchgeführt. Die Pulsformdiskriminationsfähigkeit auf LAB basierenden Szintillatoren wurde während eines Flugzeitexperiments in einem gemischten n-gamma-Feld eines Cf(252)-Prüfstrahlers ermittelt. Dabei kamen unterschiedliche Algorithmen der semi-analogen und digitalen Pulsformdiskrimination zum Einsatz. / Linear alkyl benzene (LAB, C6H5CnH2n+1, n = 10 - 13) is the proposed solvent for the SNO+, the Daya Bay Neutrino and LENA experiment. In solution with the commonly used scintillator PPO it is a colourless, odourless and cheap liquid scintillator with a high fash point and low health hazard compared to toluene based ones. The properties of LAB make this scintillator interesting also for nELBE, the neutron time-of-fight facility at Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden - Rossendorf. A new approach to measure the light yield in the low-energy range using a combination of quasi-monoenergetic photon sources and a Compton-spectrometer is described. The latter allows the measurement of the light yield down to 5 keVee (electron equivalent). The Birks- Parameter was determined for a homemade solution (LAB + 3 g/l PPO) and for NE-213. The light yield (relative to this standard scintillator) was confrmed by measurements using a fuorescence spectrometer. The ability of pulse-shape-discrimination in a mixed n-gamma- field of a Cf(252) source was tested using different digital and semi-analogue techniques. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/530 ddc:530
198	Viridiofungins and xeniolide F: target oriented synthesis using different rearrangement reactions of a common substrate class Pollex, Annett 22 September 2006 (has links) The present dissertation covers the total synthesis of viridiofungin triesters and studies toward the total synthesis of xeniolide F. In both cases, sigmatropic rearrangements of α-allyloxy substituted α,β-unsaturated esters are employed: for the viridiofungin ester synthesis a [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement and for the xeniolide F synthesis a catalytic asymmetric Claisen rearrangement CAC. For both rearrangement reactions the historical development, main characteristic and important variations are discussed. The viridiofungin triester synthesis represents a convergent and highly flexible route toward these natural products. The [2,3]-Wittig rearrangement allowed the diastereoselective synthesis of the polar head group with two adjacent stereogenic centers. The E-configured double bond was formed by a Julia-Kocienski olefination. During the studies toward the total synthesis of xeniolide F a new, diastereoselective strategy for the generation of allyl vinyl ethers with E-configured vinyl ether double bond was established employing rhodium catalyzed OH-insertion and an E-selective Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons olefination. Under the conditions of the catalytic asymmetric Claisen rearrangement (CAC) this highly substituted allyl vinyl ether rearranged diastero- and enantioselectively to the corresponding a-keto ester. This example clearly illustrates the high potential of the CAC as synthetic tool for natural product synthesis. / In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird die Totalsynthese von Tirestern der Viridiofungine A, A2 und A4 sowie die Synthese eines Schlüsselintermediates für die Totalsynthese von Xeniolid F dargestellt. In beiden Fällen wird ausgehend von einem α-allyloxysubstituierten α,β-ungesättigten Ester eine Umlagerungsreaktion als Schlüsselschritt eingesetzt: im Falle der Viridiofunginester eine diastereoselektive [2,3]-Wittig-Umlagerung, bei den Arbeiten zur Totalsynthese von Xeniolid F eine diastero- und enantioselektive, katalytische Claisenumlagerung. Für beide Umlagerungsreaktionen werden ausführlich die theoretischen Hintergründe sowie die historische Entwicklung und wichtige Varianten besprochen. Mit der Viridiofungintriestersynthese wird eine konvergente und bezüglich der lipophilen Seitenkette sehr flexible Syntheseroute vorgestellt. Die [2,3]-Wittig-Umlagerung konnte dabei erfolgreich für die diastereoselektive Synthese der hochsubstituierten, polaren Kopfgruppe der Viridiofunginester mit zwei benachbarten stereogenen Zentren (davon eines quartär) eingesetzt werden. Zur Bildung der E-konfigurierten Doppelbindung wurde die Julia-Kocienskie-Olefinierung ausgenutzt. Bei den Arbeiten zur Totalsynthese von Xeniolid F wurde eine neuartige Strategie zur diastereoselektiven Synthese eines Allylvinylethers mit E-konfigurierter Vinyletherdoppelbindung eingesetzt. Die Horner-Wadsworth-Emmons-Olefinierung (HWE-Olefinierung) generierte dabei E-selektiv die Vinyletherdoppelbindung. Das für die HWE-Olefinierung benötigte Phosphonat wurde durch rhodiumkatalysierte OH-Insertion aus einem Allylalkohol und einem Diazaphosphonoacetat hergestellt. Der hochsubstituierte Allylvinylether wurde unter den Bedingungen der katalytisch asymmetrischen Claisenumlagerung umgesetzt und führte mit exzellenter Diastereo- und Enantioselektivität zum entsprechenden α-Ketoester. Anhand dieses Beispiels konnte das Potential der katalytisch asymmetrischen Claisenumlagerung zum Aufbau von hochfunktionalisierten Bausteinen für die Naturstoffsynthese verdeutlicht werden. info:eu-repo/classification/ddc/540 ddc:540
199	Methods for protein analysis by capillary electrophoresis and mass spectrometry Romson, Joakim January 2018 (has links) Protein analysis is important to understanding biological systems, but sample diversity necessitates a multitude of analysis techniques and methods. Challenges that are addressed include analysis of low abundance samples, fractionation to reduce sample complexity, and automation to reduce time and cost. Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) is an important technique for protein characterization. In Paper I, the sensitivity of MALDI-MS was enhanced through the fabrication of a hydrophobic coating for the MALDI target plate, yielding analyte concentration. The plate outperformed a commercial concentration plate. Capillary electrophoresis (CE) separation offers low sample consumption and high efficiency, and in Paper II, offline CE-MALDI-MS fractionation was employed. A robot system for automation was constructed and used in analysis of spermatophore proteins from the butterfly Pieris napi. The robot was also used in automated on-target trypsin digestion under a lid of liquid fluorocarbons, a simpler and cheaper alternative to controlled humidity chambers. An indication of indigenous proteolysis of the sample was seen. Electrospray ionization (ESI) is the other technique for protein analysis in MS. In Paper III, the biomarker protein osteopontin (OPN) was analyzed by ESI-MS in order to find suitable conditions for its detection. A preliminary optimization of solvents and ionization conditions was done, and tandem MS (MSn) performed to increase the reliability of identification. / Proteinanalys är viktigt för att förstå biologiska system, men mångfalden av prov kräver en mängd olika analystekniker och metoder. Utmaningar som tas upp inkluderar analys av små provmängder, fraktionering för att minska provkomplexiteten, och automatisering för att minska tidsåtgång och kostnad. Matris-assisterad laserjoniserings-masspektrometri (MALDI-MS) är en viktig teknik för proteinkarakterisering. I Artikel I förbättrades känsligheten i MALDI-MS genom tillverkning av en hydrofob beläggning på MALDI-provplattan, vilket gav en koncentration av provet. Provplattan gav bättre resultat än en kommersiell koncentrationsprovplatta. Kapillärelektroforesseparation (CE) har låg provåtgång och hög separationseffektivitet och i Artikel II användes offline CE-MALDI-MS-fraktionering. Ett robotsystem för automatisering konstruerades och användes för analys av spermatoforproteiner från fjärilen Pieris napi. Roboten användes även i automatiserad trypsinklyvning under en yta av en flytande fluorkolförening, ett billigare alternativ tilli nkubationskammare med kontrollerad luftfuktighet. En indikation på naturlig enzymatisk proteinklyvning i provet hittades. Elektrospray jonisering (ESI) är den andra tekniken för proteinanalys i MS. I Artikel III analyserades biomarkören osteopontin (OPN) med ESI-MS för att hitta lämpliga förhållanden för dess detektion. En preliminär optimering av lösningsmedel och jonisationsförhållanden gjordes, och tandem-MS (MSn) utfördes för att öka identifikationens tillförlitlighet. / <p>Full text will not be uploaded due to unpublished results.

200	Investigations into cyclopropanation and ethylene polymerization via salicylaldiminato copper (II) complexes Boyd, Ramon Cornell 23 January 2007 Two distinct overall research objectives are in this Masters thesis. Very little relates the two chapters apart from the ligands. The first chapter addresses diastereoselective homogeneous copper catalyzed cyclopropanation reactions. Cyclopropanation of styrene and ethyl diazoacetate (EDA) is a standard test reaction for homogeneous catalysts. Sterically bulky salicylaldimine (SAL) ligands should select for the ethyl trans-2-phenylcyclopropanecarboxylate diastereomer. Steric bulk poorly influences trans:cis ratios. Salicylaldiminine ligands do not posses the correct symmetry to affect diastereoselectivity. The SAL ligand belongs to the Cs point group in the solid state. Other ligand motifs are more effective at altering the trans:cis ratios. The second chapter addresses the general route toward successful copper(II) ethylene polymerization catalysts. Catalytic activity of the copper(II) complexes is very low. Polymer chain growth from a copper catalyst is very unlikely. Copper-carbon bonds decompose by homolytic cleavage or C-H activation. Copper-alkyls and aryls readily decompose into brown colored oils and salts with different colors. Ligand transfer to trimethylaluminum (TMA) appears to explain low yield ethylene polymerization. bulky migratory insertion mechanism coordination/insertion methodology d-block metal late transition metal phenolic ring coordination number ketimine precatalysts ketimine nitrogen bis(salicylaldiminato)copper(II) ratio cyclopropane steric bulk salicylaldiminato TMA salt trimethylaluminum aryl oil alkyl copper-aryls copper-alkyls C-H activation homolytic homolytic cleavage copper(II) polymerization ethylene cis trans symmetry diastereomer salicylaldimine SAL EDA ethyl diazoacetate styrene cyclopropanation copper diastereoselective steric protection stable CH(SiMe3)2 intermediate catalytic activity associated TMA free TMA vacant coordination site hydrolysis Lewis acid halogen anionic anionic ligand donor ligand monodentate anionic ligand aluminum(III) monodentate polymer chain polymer chain aluminum-carbon bond bulky SAL ligand open coordination site first row transition metal PE paramagnetic high molecular weight polyethylene alkylate methylaluminoxane MAO anionic ligands arylate aluminum carbon aluminum carbon bond beta-hydrogen elimination beta hydrogen elimination Aufbau reaction Aufbau neutral dialkyl aluminum aluminum-alkyl aluminum alkyl copper(0)
