A selective and permanent destruction of sympathetic ganglia was achieved by injecting 6-hydroxydopamine in newborn animals. A lifelong chemical sympathectomy may thus be obtained. The process of cell damage and destruction is substantially different from that produced with an antiserum to a specific nerve growth factor.

We report a case of acute renal failure as a result of obstructive uropathy as a consequence of instillation of phenol used for chemical sympathectomy in Beurger's disease of the lower limbs. Extensive bilateral ureteral necrosis occurred as a result of phenol instillation that. Such practices are still common among the general surgeons and such a complication has not been described before.

This data article reports the chemical properties (moisture, pH, salinity, and soluble solid content) and colors of fermenting materials in salmon fish sauce products. The fish sauce was produced by mixing salt with differing proportions of raw salmon materials and fermenting for three months; the salmon materials comprised flesh, viscera, an inedible portion, and soft roe. Chemical properties ...

Chemical industry parks in China are considered high-risk areas because they present numerous risks that can damage the environment, such as pollution incidents. In order to identify the environmental risks and the principal risk factors in these areas, we have developed a simple physical model of a regional environmental risk field (ERF) using existing dispersal patterns and migration models. ...

The kinetics of a detailed chemically reacting system can potentially be ®ery complex. Although the chemist may be interested in only a few species, the reaction model almost always in®ol®es a much larger number of species. Some of those species are radicals, which are ®ery reacti®e species and can be important intermediaries in the reaction scheme. A large number of elementary reactions can oc...

Chemical kinetics plays an important role in controlling the atmospheric composition of all planetary atmospheres, including those of extrasolar planets. For the hottest exoplanets, the composition can closely follow thermochemical-equilibrium predictions, at least in the visible and infrared photosphere at dayside (eclipse) conditions. However, for atmospheric temperatures approximately <2000K...

and it is equally certain that it will be fought with gas, | unless some other and more effective form of frightfulness has been discovered in the meantime. Hence the importance of this very complete, authoritative and wonderfully-illustrated exposition of the subject. In brief, the book is one which is essential to all military medical officers. Whatever may be the popular belief as to the bar...

The only truie basis on whiPh the independence of ouir country can rest is agriculture and manufactures. To the promotion of these nothing tends in a higher degree than chemistry. It is this scienee which teaches ian lhow to correct the bad qualities of the land he cultivates bv a proper application of the variouis species of manure, and it is by means of a knowledge of this science that lhe is...
