Simulation results are reported for the adsorption of pure pentane (C5) isomers and their ternary mixture in a series of open-ended armchair-type (m,m) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). Inverse-shape selective adsorption occurs in the order of nC5
The photochemistry of 1,1,4-triphenyl-1,4-pentadiene was investigated. Sensitized irradiation of this compound labeled at carbon 3 with (2)H led to a degenerate rearrangement wherein the diphenylvinyl moiety migrated 1,3, thus affording diene with (2)H substitution at carbon 5. In contrast, direct
Dehydrated chicken meat (a(w) = 0.20-0.35) made from mechanically deboned chicken necks can be protected against oxidative deterioration during storage by rosemary extract (at a sensory acceptable level of 1000 ppm, incorporated prior to drying). The efficiency of the rosemary extract was similar to
A series of bis metallacyclic compounds [M(THF)(x)UN*(CH(2)SiMe(2)N{SiMe(3)})(2)](n) [M = Na (2), Li (3), or K (4), N* = N(SiMe(3))(2)] were isolated from reactions of UCl(4) or [UN*(3)Cl] with MN* or by treatment of [UN*(2)(CH(2)SiMe(2)N{SiMe(3)})] (1) or [UN*(3)] with MN*, MH, or LiCH(2)SiMe(3) in
The quantitative determination of hydrocarbons exhaled by animals as an in vivo index of extensive lipid peroxidation is described. Advantages and limitations of this method are discussed. Acetaminophen-induced hepatic lipid peroxidation in mice is an example of oxidative stress, the extent of which
Measurement of the amount of fat in femoral bone marrow can provide a quantitative assessment of the nutritional status of an individual animal. An analytical method is presented for quantitating the percent fat in bone marrow from three domestic species: bovine, canine, and equine. In this
Oxidation of lipid, nucleic acids or protein has been suggested to be involved in the etiology of several chronic diseases including cancer, cardiovascular disease, cataract, age-related macular degeneration and aging in general. A large body of research has investigated the potential role of
