The oil of Citrullus colocynthis was extracted from the seeds. The average yield was 20%. Physico-chemical characterization result show that the density of the oil was 0.9728 g/cm3, Iodine value ...

Docking And QSAR Studies Of Some Flouroquinolones Derivatives

Abstract In this study computational chemistry, drug design and docking tools were employed to discover a new class of fluoroquinolone derivatives. Fifty eight compounds were designed and made to dock into the active site of a selected receptor (4eru and 1jij); which was retrieved from protein data bank. It was found that modifications in the molecular structure of the core skeleton of fluoroquinolones structure highly affect at biological activity.It was clearly observed positions 2, 3 and 4...

Corrosion Of Copper And A Copper Alloy In Different Aqueous Media

Abstract In this research, the corrosion behavior of the copper and copper alloy in different conditions and environment were studied. The corrosion behaviour and mechanism for copper and copper alloy in( HNO3, H2SO4,HCl, NaCl)solutions were studied by chemical mass loss, kinetic of corrosion, half life time, inhibitor efficiency and corrosion rate of inhibitor efficiency methods at25oC.were also investigated. The chemical results revealed that copper and copper alloy corrodes in( HNO3, H...

Green Synthesis Of Capped Silver Nanoparticles And Their Hybrids: Antimicrobial And Optical Properties

ABSTRACT Unique properties of silver (Ag) and its allied nanoparticles are of great interest in the fields of chemistry and technology. However, the widespread applications of nanoparticles call for synthesis routes involving eco-friendly procedures. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) and their hybrids nanoparticles (Ag-Ni and Ag-Co) were synthesized using locally available biodiversity plants as alternative method to the expensive and toxic chemicals previously used. Fresh plants were collected ...

A Comparative Study Of Antioxidants Activities And Heavy Metals Content Of Some Medicinal Plants In Sudan
