This study was conducted to assess whether healthy adults compared with those with Metabolic Syndrome (MetS) have different mean oxidative-reductive potentials. Static oxidation-reduction potentials and capacity oxidation reduction potentials (sORP and cORP, respectively) were measured in plasma samples. The RedoxSYS® measures sORP in millivolts (mV), which is proportional to the...
Nitroaromatic compounds have important chemical applications and can be found in nature as pollution sources. Synthetic nitroaromatic compounds have been used in a variety of materials including explosives, pharmaceuticals, dyes, plastics, and pesticides. These compounds can find their way into the environment through normal or improper disposal methods.
Poly-aromatic compounds...
Major and minor minerals have been separated from
three L-6 chondritic meteorites (Alfianello, Colby (Wisconsin),
and Leedey). Olivine, hypersthene, diopside, feldspar,
troilite, chromite, phosphate minerals, and metallic
minerals were analyzed for major, minor and trace elements
using instrumental neutron activation analysis and radiochemical
neutron activation analysis techniques. Concentrations
df the...
Neptunium, with its rich redox chemistry, has a special position in the chemistry of actinides. With a decades-long history of development of aqueous separation methods for used nuclear fuel (UNF), management of neptunium remains an unresolved issue because of its not clearly defined redox speciation. Neptunium is present in two,...
The reaction between 4- chloro- 6- methoxy- 5-nitropyrimidine
and methylamine was investigated. The reaction product was identified
as 4-methoxy-6-methylamino-5-nitropyrimidine from synthesis
of the product via 4-chloro-6-methylamino-5-nitropyrimidine.
The product was the result of displacement of chloro substituent with methylamine. The reaction occured under mild condition (e. g. 15-20
C. in dioxane)....
