1. Oxidation of tissues with performic acid gives rise to histochemically detectable reaction products particularly in two classes of material. These are keratin and lipoids of the phosphatide class. 2. Three methods have been evolved for visualizing the effect of performic acid on cystine-containing structures; two of these (performic acid/Schiff and perfoi-mic acid/cobalt nitrate) also record...

This study was designed to investigate therapeutic effects of hyperbaric oxygen on experimentally induced colitis in rats by assessing oxidative tissue damage, neutrophil accumulation and histological changes. Six groups of animals were used. No procedures were done in the sham group. In the vehicle group, 50% ethanol-induced colitis, and in four other groups, 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulphonic ac...

A study of the antimicrobial compounds from Moneses uniflora resulted in the isolation of a novel compound, 8-chloro-2,7-dimethyl-1,4-naphthoquinone (8-chlorochimaphilin) (1), together with chimaphilin (2) and 3-hydroxychimaphilin (3) as the antimicrobial components. 2,7-Dimethyl-1,3-dihydroxynaphthyl 4-O-alpha-L-rhamnopyranoside (4) and 2,7-dimethoxy-1,4,8-trihydroxynaphthalene (6) were also i...

Three sulphonic acid-doped polyanilines were synthesized through chemical oxidation at low temperature (0-5 C) and potential of these polymers as sensing agent for O2 gas detection in terms of fluorescence quenching was studied. Sulphuric acid, dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid (DBSA) and camphor sulphonic acid (CSA) were used as doping agents. All polymers obtained were dark green powder. Polymers...

2NP is among the priority pollutants for environmental ecosystem and poses a threat to health of living things by mixing in wastewater. Therefore, determination important. In this study, glassy carbon (GC) electrode surface was modified with 1-amino-2-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid (ANSA). The electrochemical behavior voltammetric 2-nitrophenol (2NP) on (ANSA-GC) performed. Firstly, it decided that s...
