  • Applied and basic aspects of prerigor pressurization of bovine skeletal muscle

    Creator:
    Koohmaraie, Mohammad
    Abstract:
    Investigations were conducted to determine the effect of prerigor pressurization (15,000 psi, 37°C, 2 min.) of beef muscle on the subsequent retail/case-life characteristics of the treated meat. In addition, the activity of the calcium activated factor (CAF) of prerigor pressurized (PRP) muscle was also investigated. For fresh beef samples, PRP...

  • Total Synthesis of Tryptamine Alkaloids from the Arundo and Leuconotis Genera

    Creator:
    Ferreira, Andrew
    Abstract:
    The first part of this manuscript is about the total synthesis of the Arundo donax bis(indole) natural products. The A. donax alkaloids were prepared using the first example of an ynindole Diels–Alder reaction. Each were then separated, isolated, and determined to have stable enantiomeric conformations at room temperature (Chen, J.;...

  • Syntheses and evaluation of putative enzyme inhibitor of isoprenoid biosynthesis

    Creator:
    Phaosiri, Chanokporn
    Abstract:
    The discovery of the methylerythritol phosphate pathway (the MEP pathway) as an alternate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis in some organisms including most bacteria, malarial parasites and plants, but not in animals, has stimulated extensive studies in this area. Research has revealed the potential of finding novel antibacterials, antimalarial drugs, and...

  • Studies toward the total synthesis of (+)-providencin

    Creator:
    Jana, Somnath
    Abstract:
    Studies toward the total synthesis of (+)-providencin (1), a highly oxygenated cembranoid dipterpene with a unique bicyclo[12.2.0]hexadecane skeleton and pronounced biological activity, are described. These studies resulted in the synthesis of advanced intermediates 320 and 332 which contain all of the carbon atoms of 1. In a first generation approach...
