Several cis

If the vitamin A activity of cis
isomers of β - carotene is estimated to be one - half that of β - carotene, the total vitamin A activity would be ≈ 426 μg RE (≈ 213 RAE) in a serving of Indian spinach and ≈ 415 μg RE (≈ 208 RAE) in a serving of sweet potatoes.
The vitamin A activity of cis
isomers of β - carotene was not included in the determination of portion sizes because of uncertainty about the bioavailability of cis - β - carotene relative to all - trans - β - carotene.
It directly produces the L -
isomer of Carnitine, the form found in nature.
Herzon and his colleagues discovered they could prepare
an isomer of pleuromutilin — a compound that has the same connectivity, but with a different arrangement of atoms — and rearrange it in the final steps of the synthesis to pleuromutilin.
During the 2006 Tour de France, Floyd Landis's ratio of testosterone to epitestosterone (an inactive steroid
isomer of testosterone), the so - called T / E ratio, was higher than 4 to 1, the limit considered by the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) as proof of steroid use.
These are simulated crystal structures of virgin - DEB and T4H - DEB (chemically known as 1,4 - distyrylbenzene, a trans -
isomer of DEB intermediate product after the capture of first 4 atomic hydrogen with 2 CH bonds on opposing sides of the carbon chain).
Glucosepane contains a rare
isomer of imidazole, which has never before been observed in natural molecules, other than those in the glucosepane family.
It is trans
isomer of oleic acid and can be found in some meats and vegetable oils.
Not exact matches
But the atomic structures
of the clusters fluctuated under the heat treatment, switching back and forth between two main atom - configurations («
isomers»): these were a face - centred cubic structure, similar to a small piece
of bulk gold, and a decahedral arrangement with a symmetry forbidden in an extended crystal.
Moreover, these
isomers have better antibacterial properties than pleuromutilin itself, opening the door to the preparation
of improved compounds.
For example, only the right - handed form
of glucose gives you energy — the left - handed
isomer can not be metabolized, even though it tastes the same.
«As the observed NMR signal is proportional to the amount
of ortho - water in the sample (para-water «NMR silent»), we can track the percentages
of ortho and para
isomers at any time and any temperature,» Mamone explained.
«Because the molecules are kept separate by the cages, there is a large rotational freedom that makes observation
of the ortho and para
isomers possible.»
Water molecules can exist as one
of two
isomers, depending on how the spins
of their two hydrogen atoms are orientated: ortho, where the nuclear spins are parallel to one another, and para, where the spins are antiparallel.
The research team now plans to study the roles
of isomer concentrations and temperature in the conversion process, the conversion
of para-water to ortho («back conversion»), how to detect single ortho - and para-water molecules on surfaces, and spin
isomers in other fullerene - caged molecules.
By trapping water molecules in carbon spheres and cooling them, scientists at the universities
of Southampton, Nottingham and Columbia University in New York, have been able to follow the change in form (or
isomer)
of the molecules.
«Currently, mechanisms for this conversion are not completely understood, nor how long it takes the molecules to transform from one spin
isomer to the other,» said Salvatore Mamone, a post-doctoral physicist at the University
of Southampton and lead author on the JCP paper.
E-strain females make mostly the E
isomer with traces
of the Z
isomer, which is highly attractive to E-strain males.
Mirror - image
isomers (enantiomers) can have substantially different biological properties, so the selective synthesis
of just one enantiomer is desirable.
These so - called partially modified retro - inverso -
isomers are new, potent, topochemical analogs
of the enkephalins.
Researchers led by Ludwig - Maximilians - Universitaet (LMU) in Munich physicists Peter Thirolf, Lars von der Wense and Benedict Seiferle have now experimentally identified a long - sought excitation state, a nuclear
isomer in an isotope
of the element thorium (Th), which could enhance this level
of accuracy by a factor
of about ten.
However, direct detection
of the thorium
isomer Th - 229m has never been achieved.
So the team then used another magnetic resonance technique which showed them which
isomers were produced by the fungus (Journal
of the American Chemical Society, vol 116, p 12097).
«Most tomato lycopene that we eat exists as the all - trans
isomer, a rigid and straight form, but in the bodies
of regular tomato consumers, most lycopene exists as cis
isomers, which tend to be bent and flexible.
The

of a nitrogen - hydrogen bond in respect to the nickel center.
Testing for anti-HIV activity showed that the cis analogue 76a (anti-HIV IC50 = 35 nM), comparable with bicyclic tetrahydroquinoline derivative 75, was the most potent among the
isomers, while the activities
of the cis

Disappointments with outcomes - based studies investigating α - tocopherol are, in large part, the result
of abstracting this single compound from the vitamin E family and ignoring the interplay among the eight
isomers that constitute natural vitamin E. Best clinical outcomes will be achieved with vitamin E supplementation providing mixed tocopherols and tocotrienols in ratios similar to those found in nature.
Part II
of this article reviews recent research on both the unique and interactive nature
of the vitamin E
isomers» therapeutic actions, and the ratios in which the tocopherols and tocotrienols have been found to be most bioavailable and effective.
All natural vitamin E compounds have antioxidant activity, but evolution has tasked this 8 -
isomer family
of inter-related tocopherols and tocotrienols with significantly more than just serving as chain - breaking inhibitors
of lipid peroxidation.
Current research investigating the potential therapeutic actions
of the other vitamin E
isomers, however, clearly indicates that these compounds both potentiate and balance the actions
of α - tocopherol, which, in high doses, might otherwise be detrimental.
In other research, additional vitamin E
isomers have also been found to inhibit COX -2-catalyzed formation
of PGE2, e.g., in one study, δ - tocopherol was an even stronger COX - 2 inhibitor than γ - tocopherol.

of total lipid) rather than 11t - 18:1 (TVA)(0.77 %
