TL;DR: The 70% acetone extract of Monochasma savatierii FRANCH showed very strong inhibition of rabbit lens aldose reductase (AR), and five iridoid glucosides along with the two phenolic glycosides, acteoside and dehydroacteosides, have been isolated.

TL;DR: In this article, an irreversible magnetic-field-induced antiferromagentic to ferromagnetic transition has been found below T t =26 K in rare earth intermetallic compound Nd 5 Ge 3 using a single crystal.

TL;DR: In this paper, copolymers composed of optically active depsipeptides (3,6-dimethyl-2,5-morphorinedione) and L-lactide were examined in an effort to improve the biodegradability and physical properties of homopoly(L-latide), and sufficient results were obtained with an approximate ratio of 3/11/86.

TL;DR: In this article, the exchange energy under applied magnetic fields based on the proposed magnetic structure assuming an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction in the a − a plane and a ferromagnetic one along the c -axis was calculated.

TL;DR: In this article, the magnetic phase transition in rare earth intermetallic compound Nd 7 Rh 3 has been investigated using a single crystal, and measurements of magnetization, magnetic susceptibility, specific heat, and electrical resistivity reveal that the compound has two magnetic phase transitions at T N = 34 K, T t 2 = 9.1 K and a change of the magnetic feature at T t 1 = 6.8 K in the absence of an external magnetic field.
