Zinc flake coating The material can be applied using the following application techniques: Prior to coating, the parts' surface needs to be pre-treated. Pickling with acids (e.g. sulfuric or hydrochloric acid) produces atomic hydrogen and can penetrate into the steel structure and make it brittle. In order to avoid pic...

Aciculitin Aciculitins are antifungal cyclic peptides isolated from a marine sponge. There are 3 Aciculitins that are isolated from the Lithistid sponge "Aciculites orientalis" that differ by their homologous lipid residues. "Antimicrobial peptides from marine invertebrates as a new frontier for microbial infection con...

Retrometabolic drug design In the field of drug discovery, retrometabolic drug design is a strategy for the design of safer drugs either using predictable metabolism to an inactive moiety or using targeted drug delivery approaches. The phrase retrometabolic drug design was coined by Nicholas Bodor. The method is analog...

Retrometabolic drug design CDSs are biologically inert molecules intended to enhance drug delivery to a particular organ or site and requiring several conversion steps before releasing the active drug. Although both retrometabolic design approaches involve chemical modifications of the molecular structure and both requ...

Retrometabolic drug design There are several rationally designed soft drugs that have either already reached the market, such as or are in late-stage development (remimazolam, budiodarone, celivarone, AZD3043, tecafarin). There are also compounds that can be considered as soft chemicals (e.g., malathion) or soft drugs ...

Retrometabolic drug design After enzymatic oxidation of the NADH type drug conjugate to its corresponding NAD- drug, the still inactive precursor, "locks-in" behind the BBB to provide targeted and sustained CNS-delivery of the compound of interest. The second example involves eye-specific delivery of betaxoxime, the ox...
