The synthesis of furanic derivatives (5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), furfural . . . ) from carbohydrates is of high interest for a wide range of applications. These reactions are carried out in the presence of various solvents, and among them choline chloride can be used. It is a salt that can form a low melting mixture with a carbohydrate (fructose, glucose . . . ) or a deep eutectic mixture w...

2-Amino-2-methylpropanol-1 and LY ,a-dimethyltriethylcholine have been found to be competitive inhibitors of choline utilization in 40 to 50 gm. male albino rats (1). The former substance apparently only antagonized the utilization of choline in the kidney’ while the latter was an antimetabelite both in the liver and kidney. The quantitative relationships between these inhibitors and choline in...

Abstract Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have been considered as novel and economic alternatives to traditional lubricants because of their similar physicochemical performance. In this study, choline chloride (ChCl) DESs were successfully synthesized via hydrogen-bonding networks urea thiourea the hydrogen bond donors (HBDs). The as-synthesized ChCl-urea ChCl-thiourea had excellent thermal stabil...

The maximum choline esterase activity of the superior cervical ganglion of the cat was measured and found to be, on the average, equivalent to the splitting of 0.10gamma of acetyl choline chloride per second per milligram of fresh tissue at a pH of 7.4 and 38 degrees . The least possible time required for destruction of the ester liberated by one nerve impulse was calculated to be 0.015sigma. T...

Choline chloride produced a dose-dependent induction of alkaline phosphatase activity in HeLa cells. At the highest concentration tested, 40 mM, there was a 5- to 7-fold increase in alkaline phosphatase activity, a significantly greater induction than that produced by equiosmolar additions of either NaCl or sucrose. Enzyme activity was higher than control values by 24 hr after the addition of t...

Four trials were conducted with a total of 188 crossbred sows to determine the effect of feeding diets supplemented with tallow (0 or 8%) and choline chloride (220 or 770 mg/kg diet) prior to parturition and during lactation on preweaning pig performance. On d 100 of gestation, sows were allotted to four factorially arranged dietary treatments: 0% tallow-220 mg/kg choline chloride, 0% tallow-77...

Female Sprague-Dawley rats received approximately 300 mg/kg per day of choline chloride through their drinking water on days 11 of pregnancy through birth and the level of nerve growth factor (NGF) in the hippocampus and frontal cortex of their male offspring was measured at 20 and 90 days of age. Prenatal choline supplementation caused significant increases in hippocampal NGF levels at 20 and ...

This work used a literature search to select the most suitable system for delignification process of annual plants. was evaluated in terms lignin removal from plant biomass. Based on previous experiments, low transition temperature mixture (LTTM) used, which choline chloride and lactic acid molar ratio 1:2. Samples hemp fibers were examined. The biomass monitored by changing content main compon...
