Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are restricted by the non-polymorphic MHC class I-like protein, CD1d, and activated following presentation of lipid antigens bound to CD1d molecules. The prototypical iNKT cell agonist is α-galactosyl ceramide (α-GalCer). CD1d-mediated activation of iNKT

Recently, it has been proposed (M. Claeys et al., Science 2004; 303: 1173) that the atmospheric OH-radical-mediated photooxidation of isoprene is a source of two major secondary organic aerosol (SOA) components, that is, 2-methylthreitol and 2-methylerythritol. These diastereoisomeric tetrols, which

PM2.5 samples were collected from June to December 2005 in Potsdam, New York and analyzed for polar organic compounds by GC/MS. The major compounds that were identified in the samples included 2-methyltetrols (2-methylthreitol and 2-methylerythritol), levoglucosan, cispinonic acid, and mannitol.

A supported liquid membrane (SLM) containing a resorcinarene carrier has been used for the selective transport of erythritol, threitol, ribitol and xylitol from concentrated (1.0-0.01 M) aqueous solutions. The membrane is made of a microporous polytetrafluoroethylene film impregnated with a

Differently protected erythro and threo furanoid glycals were synthesized by selenoxide elimination when phenyl 1-selenoglycosides were treated in oxidizing conditions (tBuOOH, Ti(O(i)Pr)(4), Et(2)(i)PrN). The phenyl 1-selenoglycosides were obtained from methyl 2-deoxy-D-erythro-pentofuranoside by protection of the primary hydroxyl or both hydroxyls
