Sodium metabisulfite is used as a disinfectant, antioxidant, and preservative agent in the food, beverage, and drug industries. Neurons are highly sensitive to sulfite toxicity. Curcumin is the main part of turmeric and has neuroprotective effects on a variety of nervous system damages. The present study aimed to investigate the possible protective role of curcumin in learning and memory after ...

astewaters from all processes w are collected by gravity flow into acid-alkali (rinses), chromate, cyanide, spenttstripping acids, and cleaner sumps. The acid concentrates and cleaner concentrates are gradually fed into chromate and acid-alkali (rinse) sumps, respectively. Cyanide destruction is achieved by oxidation with sodium hypochlorite whereas hexavalent chrome is reduced to trivalent chr...

Background: Many health problems are related to lifestyle and dietary factors. Since ancient times, food additives such as sulfites have been used to preserve foods. Diverse effects of sulfites on multiple organs have been reported but its effect on female reproductive organ has not been fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sodium metabisulfite (SMB) on ovar...

Aryl N-aminosulfonamides could be easily produced via a palladium-catalyzed coupling of aryl halides, potassium metabisulfite, and hydrazines. Potassium metabisulfite is an excellent equivalent of sulfur dioxide in the reaction of palladium-catalyzed aminosulfonylation.

Improvements in methodologies for measuring concentrations of catecholamines (CA) have led to an increasing use of these compounds as markers in the screening of patients and in long-term clinical trials. Because of the associated logistical problems, we have investigated the unresolved question of optimal conditions for sample preparation and for storage of plasma and urine samples. Results sh...

Several bronchodilator drugs commonly used in respiratory therapy contain sodium metabisulfite as an antioxidant preservative. When aerosolized, these agents may release the irritant gas SO2 as a result of bisulfite decomposition. We found that agents that contain bisulfites generated SO2 concentrations of 2.0 ppm and greater, while bronchodilator solutions without bisulfite did not. Such level...
