Poly(anthraquinonyl sulfide) is synthesized and investigated as a novel organic cathode material for rechargeable lithium batteries, which shows excellent reversibility and cyclabilty, and gives important insights into developing a new generation of organic cathode materials with higher performance.

Degradation products that could reasonably form upon storage of sulfur mustard have been synthesized and analyzed by GC/MS. Elucidation of the fragmentation pathways was accomplished by means of B3LYP/6-31+G(d) calculations.

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa microsoftinternetexplorer4 introduction : during iran-iraq war, iraqi troops used chemical weapons especially sulfur mustard (sm) gas against the iranian soldiers several times. results of previous studies and observations have all emphasized that chemical weapons pose hazardous effects on different human organs such as lungs, skin, hematopoietic ti...

Aims: Pigmentation disorders are one of the main skin problems due to mustard gas exposure in chemically-injured veterans. The aim of this study as part of the Sardasht cohort study was to investigate the association between IL-6 and IL-4 and pigment disorders in chemically-injured veterans exposed to mustard gas. Materials & Methods: In this study, 500 subjects including 372 people expose...

Mycosis fungoides (MF) is the most common form of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma. Persistent antigenic stimulation has been claimed to play a role in the development of this malignancy. We aimed to show the role of sulfur mustard in the pathogenesis of MF. A 45-year-old man with MF is introduced herein. He was a victim of chemical exposure in 1987 during the Iran–Iraq war. He developed skin lesions ...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate bronchial challenges using three different stimuli as screening tools for bronchial hyper-responsiveness in sulfur mustard gas-induced asthma. DESIGN Randomized, cross-over clinical study. SETTING University hospital. PATIENTS Eighteen veterans with mustard gas-induced asthma and 18 normal veterans as the control group. INTERVENTION Pulmonary function tests and inh...

Background: Sulfur mustard gas is a chemical agent that has been used in many wars, especially in Iran-Iraq war. This chemical agent affects many organs including lungs, eyes and skin, causing numerous acute and chronic lesions including erythema and hyperpigmentation, respectively. This study was conducted to evaluate erythema and melanin in subjects with a history of exposure to sulfur ...

gas is not destroyed but only dissolved, and care must be taken not to spread the contamination by allowing the solvent to run. lThorough washing with soap and water will complete the treatment. 3. T7horough washing with soap and water.-If some time has elapsed after contamination, the washing treatment should still be carried out at the first opportunity with the hopes of mitigating the degree...

AIM Nitrogen Mustard (NM) is an alkylating agent that damages cellular nuclear DNA after penetrating tissue. This results in cytostatic, mutagenic and cytotoxic effects. We used biochemical analyses to investigate the effect of NM gas administered through the dermal and respiratory routes, on the brain cortex of rats and also tried to show whether the antioxidant Proanthocyanidi...
