Interleukin (IL)-5 is a chemotactic factor of eosinophils, and promotes the growth and survival of eosinophils, which plays an important role in the eosinophilia-associated allergic inflammation. In this study, luteolin 4'-O-glucopyranoside was identified as the IL-5 inhibitor from Kummerowia striata Thunb. (Leguminos…

A precursor for Y 3 Al 5 O 12 was synthesized as a YAG sol by simply dissolving Y 2 O 3 powder in an alumina sol. Phase‐pure Y 3 Al 5 O 12 powder was obtained by precipitating the YAG sol with an aqueous dilute ammonia solution followed by calcination at 1100°C. TG/DTA analysis showed an exotherm at 938°C attributed t…

Abstract Otavite-calcite solid solutions have been synthesized to investigate the factors which control the patterns of compositional zoning. The equilibrium partitioning of otavite between the aqueous and the solid phase can be described by means of a function X CdCO 3 ( X Cd,aq ) eq , which relates the solid mole fr…

A new type of functionalized discotic oligomer system has been realized whose molecular architecture consists of a trisubstituted benzene as central core and three nitro-functionalized triphenylenes as regional cores. These regional cores are linked to the central core via ether linkages through an alkyl chain spacer.…

The transient deformation of a viscous drop attached to a plane wall and subjected to an overpassing simple shear flow is studied in the limit of a vanishing Reynolds number. The buoyancy force is negligible, the contact line has and retains a prescribed circular shape, and the interface is either devoid of surfactant…

Time- and wavelength-resolved observation of a laser ablation plume from a strontium titanate target was performed under a dipole magnetic field applied from the substrate side. In contrast to the conventional method, the present method gave rise to increasing ionization of the growth species in the plume in the vicin…

Growth of Sr 2 Nb 2 O 7 particle size in KCl melts occurs by reaction on insoluble Nb 2 O 5 particles in the melt. Thus, Sr 2 Nb 2 O 7 size is controlled by the initial size of the reactants. By altering the reactant composition to include larger Nb‐rich reactants such as SrNb 2 O 6 , 5‐30 µm, anisotropic Sr 2 Nb 2 O…
