Reaction of methyl bromopropiolate with diamines as a method of synthesis of imidazolidine derivatives

A convenient method of synthesis of 2-(methoxycarbonylmethylene)-substituted imidazolidines and imidazolidinium bromides, and also of bicyclic diazo compounds has been developed starting from methyl bromopropiolate and ethylenediamine and its derivatives.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 9, pp. 1205–1208, September, 1991.     

A differential-geometric criterion of the kinematic integrability of nonlinear differential equations

A theorem on the existence of a G-representation and a differential-geometric criterion of the kinematic integrability for nonlinear differential equations from the Λ²-G-classes is proved. Examples of zero-curvature representations and metrics for some equations of mathematical physics are presented. __________ Translated from Fundamental’naya i Prikladnaya Matematika (Fundamental and Applied Mathematics), Vol. 11, No. 1, Geometry, 2005.

Interaction between indigo and adsorbed protein as a major factor causing backstaining during cellulase treatment of cotton fabrics

A model microassay system was developed to measure indigo backstaining on cotton fabrics in the presence of enzymes on a small laboratory scale. Backstaining indexes for 11 cellulase samples were measured, and the enzymes were ranked from lower to higher backstaining. Two multienzyme cellulase preparations were separated into fractions using chromatofocusing on a Mono P column. Adsorption ability and backstaining properties of purified enzyme fractions were studied. Evidence was obtained that protein adsorption on cotton fabrics is a crucial parameter causing backstaining (both for crude cellulase samples and purified enzyme components).
