Abstract:
... Yarns made from raw cotton, "purified" cotton, mercerized cotton, clothing wool, carpet wool, viscose rayon, cuprammonium rayon, cellulose acetate, and degummed silk were saturated with water and then exposed for periods of 1/2 to 6 hours in air having temperatures of 221° 257 °, and 302° F. and absolute humidities of approximately 1%, 55%, and 95%. After conditioning the dried yarns for at least ...

Abstract:
... For the determination of the degree of polymolecularity in acid-modified celluloses the nitrates of hydrocelluloses from native cotton, surgical cotton, and viscose rayon were frac tionated from dilute acetone solutions. The results indicate that a large proportion of the hydro celluloses are uniform in that almost 33% of the methanolyzed native cotton consists of mole cules with D.P. 252, about 7 ...

The active agency in the filtrates is here termed " S factor." Its action is measured by a previously described alkali-centrifuge test [12]. With the fungus Myrothecium verrucaria, S factor was produced du ...

Abstract:
... Dieldrin does not react with wool but, during treatment in aqueous emulsions, some of the insecticide penetrates the fibers. This small amount, sufficient to mothproof the wool, is not removed by the usual drycleaning solvents which do not cause swelling, but can be extracted completely by hot methanol or acetone. Dieldrin is gradually lost when treated wool is washed in soap solutions, but an ini ...

Seeds immersed in the solvents had normal germinability, whereas excised embryos and gin-damaged seeds were killed by immersion in the solvents, apparently due ...

toxicity; testing; chlorpyrifos; acetone; pH; aquatic environment
Abstract:
... Recycling aquatic microecosystems consisting of three subsystems with a total volume of 7.5 L were used to study the effects of the insecticide chlorpyrifos. The poorly soluble chlorpyrifos was dosed dissolved in 0.5 ml of acetone. Acetone was found to be responsible for some of the observed effects. It caused a decrease of the pH by approximately two units. The decrease started 2 weeks after the ...

Abstract:
... A study of the feasibility of utilizing palm oil waste as a substrate for acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation by Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum N1-4 and, hence, to reduce the biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) of waste disposal was carried out. Among the two types of palm oil waste tested, separator sludge was the better substrate and it was able to support production of solvents by C. sacch ...

Abstract:
... Colletotrichum gloeosporioides secretes a phytotoxic compound that causes anthracnose in Hevea brasiliensis: as a first step we attempted to follow mycelium growth, pH and toxin production by this fungus. The compound was isolated and partially purified by ultrafiltration, acetone precipitation and affinity and gel-permeation chromatography. Material purified was largely carbohydrate with a small ...

Abstract:
... 6-Benzoylaminopurine (BOAP) inhibits succinate oxidation at the level of complex II (succinate-ubiquinone reductase) in the respiratory chain of plant mitochondria. In order to identify its site of action, the effects of BOAP on mitochondrial membranes of potato tubers were studied using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and compared to those of thenoyltrifluoroacetone (TTFA), an inhibitor of ...

Abstract:
... Marked Glossina pallidipes Austen were released downwind of an odour source in the field in Zimbabwe and the percentage recaptured at the source on the same day was measured. In the absence of odour, 1.3% of the marked tsetse released from a box or refuge were recaptured, independent of the distance between release point and odour source. The distance was varied from 10 to 100 m. When natural ox o ...
