butyl alcohol/zea mays

The influence of the main fuel oxygenate methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and its key metabolite, tert-butyl alcohol (TBA), on the growth of a plant seedling was studied separately and in combination. The test plants were mung bean (Phaseolus radiatus), cucumber (Cucumis sativus), wheat (Triticum

tert-Butyl alcohol (TBA) is widely used in the manufacturing of certain perfumes, cosmetics, drugs, paint removers, methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), and industrial solvents. In both rodents and humans, TBA is a major metabolite of MTBE, an oxygenated fuel additive. Chronic TBA exposure causes protein

Studies of the toxicology of methyl tertiary butyl ether (MTBE) were reviewed as a possible information base for evaluating the health effects of evaporative emissions from reformulated gasoline (RFG). The major metabolites of the oxidative demethylation of MTBE in vivo were methanol and tertiary

The presence of the oxidized and reduced forms of ubiquinones Q(9) and Q(10) was determined in commercial extra virgin olive and seed oils, where the amounts of alpha- and gamma-tocopherols and beta-carotene were also quantitated. Very high concentrations of ubiquinones were found in soybean and
