The amide/imidic-acid unit with H proton communication might be the biological protein...

In acidic medium, Fe (III) can be reduced to Fe (II) by hydrosulfuryl (-SH) in acetylcysteine molecule, and then using sulfosalicylic acid as chromogenic reagent of Fe (III) to determinate the acetylcysteine indirectly by discoloration spectrophotometry.An accurate fast spectrophotometric method for...

This paper presents a model of detection age which quantifies the appearance changes of human skin at different stages of aging without traditional skeleton. We provide a novel method to extract age-related primitive features from skin surface images obtained by a digital camera, including skin surface...

Dementia is the most common onset of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The main neuropathological characteristics of AD are extracellular amyloid plaques and intracellular accumulation of hyperphosphorylated Tau protein. Because of the complexity of the pathogenesis, the most treatment options are not effective...
