Sulfur mustard is one of the major potent chemical warfare agents. It was widely used against not only military personnel but also civilian people ofIranduring the last years (1984–1988) of the Iraq–Iran war. A number of studies were performed regarding the acute and long-term consequences of sulfur mustard on respiratory system. Currently, many aspects of leading respiratory disorder that was ...

introduction: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (copd) secondary to sulfur mustard gas poisoning, known as mustard lung, is a major late pulmonary complications in chemical warfare patients. serious comorbidities like dyslipidemia are frequently encountered in copd. the aim of this study was to measure the serum lipid profile and evaluate the relation of lipid parameters with the severity o...

A new indene-based ligand featuring pendant phosphine sulfide and amine donor fragments has been developed; Rh(I) coordinates to the neutral form of the ligand in a kappa2-[N,S] fashion, while the anionic form of the ligand binds Rh(I) and Mn(I) in kappa2-[C,S] and eta5 modes, respectively.

In previous studies (1, 2, 3) one of us (L.) has reported experiments which are concerned with the oxidation of sulfur in the cystine molecule. It was demonstrated that if deamination of cystine be prevented by “blocking” the amino group (as in phenyluraminocystine (1) or dibenzoylcystine (3) ), the sulfur of the molecule was not oxidized normally and was excreted in the urine in large part in ...
