MUNICH, GERMANY, March 13, 2012 (Press-News.org) InfoChem GmbH - a market leader in structure and reaction handling and retrieval - and Eidogen-Sertanty, Inc. - a pioneer in chemical applications for mobile devices - have released SPRESImobile a new, jointly developed application for Apple iPod, iPhone and iPad devices. The application, featuring an innovative user interface, provides researchers and students worldwide access to InfoChem's ChemReact: a database containing over 410,000 chemical reactions and related information. ChemReact is a representative subset of SPRESI, InfoChem's structure and reaction database which covers reactions published between 1974 and 2010.
"This is an exciting first: an app that puts InfoChem's leading technological expertise to use, allowing mobile access to a relevant subset of SPRESI," said Peter Loew, PhD, Managing Director, InfoChem GmbH. "It's the first time a smart, quick and easy-to-use app has been put to use in this field."
"SPRESImobile provides users with a very easy to use, interactive experience," said Steven M. Muskal, PhD, CEO, Eidogen-Sertanty. "This app is a must-have for scientists who search for molecules and reactions and need supporting reference information."
With SPRESImobile, users can search chemicals by name or structure, browse molecules, conditions, properties and references, and navigate through reactions where a specific chemical is participating either as Reactant or as Product. The commercial availability and journal article links take users to the main suppliers' or publishers' websites. In addition, SPRESImobile enables users to share structures and reactions via email or open them within other mobile applications that support standard .mol or .rxn formats. SPRESImobile uses MMDS by Molecular Materials Informatics for structure editing.

Orlando Car Accident Attorney Wins $116,000 for Accident Victim
2012-03-13
The experienced Orlando auto accident lawyers of Jaspon & Armas, P.A. obtained a jury verdict of $116,000 for a client in a case against State Farm Insurance.
Before filing a lawsuit, State's Farm's top offer was $3,5000 for our client. After being forced to file a lawsuit and just before trial, State Farm's top offer for our client was $25,000. State Farm turned down a counter settlement offer from the firm for $75,000.00, so the attorneys at Jaspon & Armas fought for their client in the Miami-Dade Court. The end result was an award by the jury for the client ...
Penn researchers find Epstein Barr-like virus infects and may cause cancer in dogs
2012-03-13
PHILADELPHIA -- More than 90 percent of humans have antibodies to the Epstein Barr virus. Best known for causing mononucleosis, or "the kissing disease," the virus has also been implicated in more serious conditions, including Hodgkin's, non-Hodgkin's and Burkitt's lymphomas. Yet little is known about exactly how EBV triggers these diseases.
Now a team of researchers from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine and Penn's Perelman School of Medicine has the first evidence that an Epstein Barr-like virus can infect and may also be responsible for ...
Narcissism impairs ethical judgment even among the highly religious, Baylor study finds
2012-03-13
Although high levels of narcissism can impair ethical judgment regardless of one's religious orientation or orthodox beliefs, narcissism is more harmful in those who might be expected to be more ethical, according to a Baylor University study published online in the Journal of Business Ethics.
Read the article using this link http://www.springerlink.com/content/u0k76hw8x37h7562/
"Devout people who are narcissistic and exercise poor ethical judgment would be committing acts that are, according to their own internalized value system, blatantly hypocritical," said Marjorie ...
New study examines how medical symptoms presented online makes a difference in health-care choices
2012-03-13
TEMPE (March 12, 2012) - Maybe you've had a reoccurring sore throat or frequent headaches. Perhaps the pain in your leg won't go away. In the past, you might have gone to a doctor's office to diagnose symptoms.
Today, people are more likely to go online to punch in their symptoms.
Details of a new study examining how symptoms presented online influence people's reactions to possible medical conditions will be presented in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science. Researchers found that identifying symptoms in "streaks" - sequences ...
Researcher uses medical imaging technology to better understand fish senses
2012-03-13
KINGSTON, R.I. – March 12, 2012 – University of Rhode Island marine biologist Jacqueline Webb gets an occasional strange look when she brings fish to the Orthopedics Research Lab at Rhode Island Hospital. While the facility's microCT scanner is typically used to study bone density and diseases like osteoporosis, it is also providing new insights into the skull structure and sensory systems of fish.
A professor of biological sciences and director of the marine biology program at URI, Webb studies the lateral line system, a sensory system in all fishes that enables them ...
Scientists document first consumption of abundant life form, Archaea
2012-03-13
CORVALLIS, Ore. – A team of scientists has documented for the first time that animals can and do consume Archaea – a type of single-celled microorganism thought to be among the most abundant life forms on Earth.
Archaea that consume the greenhouse gas methane were in turn eaten by worms living at deep-sea cold seeps off Costa Rica and the West Coast of the United States. Archaea perform many key ecosystem services including being involved with nitrogen cycling, and they are known to be the main mechanism by which marine methane is kept out of the atmosphere.
The finding ...
A new theory on the formation of the oldest continents
2012-03-13
The earth's structure can be compared to an orange: its crust is the peel supported by the earth's heavy mantle. That peel is made up of a continental crust 30 to 40 kilometers thick. It is much lighter than the thinner oceanic crust and protrudes from the earth's mantle because of its lower density, like an iceberg in the sea. "According to the current theory, the first continental crusts were formed when tectonic plates would collide, submerging oceanic crusts into the earth's mantle, where they would partially melt at a depth of approximately 100 kilometers. That molten ...
New study examines stair-related injuries among children in the US
2012-03-13
A new study by researchers at the Center for Injury Research and Policy of The Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital found that from 1999 through 2008, more than 93,000 children younger than 5 years of age were treated in U.S. emergency departments for stair-related injuries. On average, this equates to a child younger than 5 years of age being rushed to an emergency department for a stair-related injury every six minutes in the U.S.
The study, which is being released online March 12, 2012 and appearing in the April 2012 print issue of Pediatrics, noted ...
Preemies still receive inhaled nitric oxide despite lack of supporting evidence and standards
2012-03-13
Many premature infants throughout the United States continue to receive inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) during their NICU stay, despite the lack of evidence to support its use. Whether or not a preemie will receive iNO treatment, when and for how long, varies greatly throughout the country, as its use in premature infants appears to be unstandardized. These are the findings of a Nationwide Children's Hospital study appearing in the journal Pediatrics.
Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a selective pulmonary vasodilator approved for use in term and near-term infants with hypoxic ...
Network approach improves outcomes in IBD despite lack of new treatment options
2012-03-13
Many children with Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis who received treatment through ImproveCareNow, a national quality improvement and research network, ceased to have symptoms and no longer needed to take steroids for disease management. These are the findings from a study appearing in Pediatrics that examined the ImproveCareNow network's quality improvement efforts and their impact on outcomes. In this study, the proportion of children with Crohn's disease who were in remission increased from 55 percent to 68 percent, with a similar improvement in ulcerative colitis ...
