Salama2 1The Stephan Angeloff Institute of Microbiology, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia, Bulgaria; 2Siogen Biotech SDN BHD, Berlin, Germany Abstract Forty-three organosilicon class of compounds were tested for antiviral activity using a wide scope screening program in vitro (in cell cultures) including eight model strains of viruses belonging to seven tax- onomic groups including causative agents of infections in which applications of chemotherapy is indicated. The results obtained demonstrated a marked activity of di(hexadecanoyloxy)diphenylsilan (compound 27) only against human cytomegalovirus (SI = 30.9). A marked activity toward this virus at a low m.o.i. was recorded also by 1-o-dimethyl(octadecyl)silyl-(2,3,4,6-o-tetraacetyl-β-D-glucopyranosid) (compound 20). Small to borderline effect against this virus was found by silanes 2, 7, 15, 19 and 34, at silanes 2, 3 and 25 toward influenza virus A(H3N2) and at silane 9 versus vaccinia virus. As concerns the cytotoxicity it was established a strong variation towards different cell cultures used, the higher susceptibility of the HEp-2 cells been recorded. Keywords: silanes, antiviral testing, in vitro, cytotoxicity Резюме Четиридесет и три съединения от класа органосиликони бяха изпитани за антивирусна активност чрез широко-спектърна скринингова програма in vitro, състояща се от осем моделни щамове на вируси, принадлежащи към седем таксономични групи, включващи причинители на инфекции, при които е показано приложение на химиотерапия. Получените резултати показаха отчетлива активност на ди(хексаноилокси)дифенилсилан (съединение 27) само срещу човешкия цитомегаловирус (SI = 30.9). Отчетлива активност спрямо този вирус при ниска множественост на инфекцията бе отчетена също от 1-о-диметил(октадецил)силил-(2,3,4,6-о-β-D-глюкопиранозид) (съ- единение 20). Слаб до граничен ефект спрямо този вирус бе намерена при силани 2, 7, 15, 19 и 34, при силани 2, 3 и 25 срещу грипен вирус А(H3N2) и при силан 9 срещу вирус вакциние. Що се касае до цитотоксичността, установено бе силно вариране спрямо различните използвани клетъчни кул- тури, като най-висока чувствителност бе отчетена при клетки НЕр-2.

  • NEWSLETTER No
    pre_blau.jpg Postgraduate Programme neu_carl.pdf RENEWABLE ENERGY NEWSLETTER No. 1/2002 – Vol 21 EDITORIAL Dear Reader—spring has finally arrived and sunlight is filtering through the first leaves of some bushes at the Wechloy Campus here in Olden- burg. This newsletter was intended to be published in fall 2001. Edu Knagge’s many duties (see last newsletter!) prevented him from work- ing on this issue, so I took over and started work on the collection of e-mails and articles collected by our friend and colleague only after the Winter Term 2002 was finished. This explains the delay and I learned (by doing) what time and effort it requires to complete an issue of the PPRE Newsletter and only after some weeks of sifting thorough quite a few e-mails and some MB of attached files things got into place. So, what do you have to expect from this issue? Well, we will try and present some News from Oldenburg, keep you informed about messages that arrived from the PPRE Alumni and then you might like some articles sent from some of your former colleagues. An overview on publications and useful web sites will complete the newsletter – at the end like always an updated list of alumni and their e-mail addresses. In 2002 PPRE will pass 15 years of programme and the number of ab- solvents will pass the 0 mark. The curriculum will be changed due to changes in the field of renewable energy. Happy reading and good wishes from Oldenburg signa_kb.jpg CONTENTS EDITORIAL . 1 NEWS FROM OLDENBURG .

India 1977 Preface With an increased emphasis on research on the important grain legume crop of chickpea, there is a need for a comprehensive listing of chickpea literature. Bibliographies prepared by the ICAR (I960), Regional Pulse Improvement Project of USDA (1966-1970), and L.J.G. van der Maesen (1972) have been the basic resource works on chickpea; this effort was undertaken to update the available bibliographic works and to provide wider coverage of the world literature. Assistance was obtained from the U.S.D.A. Library, Commonwealth Bureau of Plant Breeding, Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Publications and Information Directorate (Wealth of India Section), Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (New Delhi), and the ICRISAT Library in compiling and checking the references. This bibliography covers the years 1930- 1974. Also included is all traceable literature prior to this period. The coverage includes 22 languages. Foreign titles are presented only in the English translation. Where titles are of common knowledge in a particular field, the original language was kept in order to avoid confusion, for example some taxonomical works in Latin. A complete list of all languages used has been given at the end. A list of periodical abbreviations along with language and country of publication precedes the bibliography for identification of periodicals used in the citations.
