ACETIC ACID AS A COUNTER-IRRITANT.

Acetic Acid as a Soil Disinfectant '

Acetic acid, in vinegar, is one of the most anciently used preservatives. Its toxicity to bacteria and to fungi has been recognized. Wolf and Shunk (^6) ^ found that it was more toxic to the six species of bacteria investigated by them than was hydrochloric, sulphuric, citric, tartaric, malic^ or formic acids. In the experiments of Bitting (4) acetic acid was as toxic to fungi as benzoic, boric...

Acetic acid Separation as a Function of Temperature Using Commercial Pervaporation Membrane

Acetic acid was separated from a dilute mixture using a commercial polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) membrane.  Intrinsic separation characteristics of the membrane were studied as a function of temperature.  The degree of membrane swelling decreased marginally with increase in feed temperature. At 25oC the maximum degree of swelling was found out to be 46.3%, which reduced to 39.5%...

Acetic Acid in Cholera

The treatment of cholera by acetic acid, suggested by Dr. Greene in the September number of the Indian Medical Gazette, deserves, I think, to be put to the test by the profession. When I perused Dr. Greene's article, it struck me that, from its strong antiseptic property, acetic acid may do good by counteracting the morbific influence of the cholera miasm in the blood. Besides, being a stimulan...

Cytenamide acetic acid solvate

IN THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE TITLE COMPOUND (SYSTEMATIC NAME: 5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclo-hepta-triene-5-carboxamide ethanoic acid solvate), C(16)H(13)NO·C(2)H(4)O(2), the cytenamide and solvent mol-ecules form a hydrogen-bonded R(2) (2)(8) dimer motif, which is further connected to form a centrosymmetric double ring motif arrangement. The cycloheptene ring adopts a boat conformation and the dihedr...
