Methyl salicylate encapsulation in biodegradable polymer microcapsule

Detection of methyl salicylate using polymer-filled chemicapacitors.

Methyl salicylate (MeS) is used as a chemical warfare agent simulant to test chemical protective garments and other individual personal protective gear. The accurate and real-time detection of this analyte is advantageous for various testing regimes. This paper reports the results of MeS vapor exposures on polymer-filled capacitance-based sensors at temperatures ranging from 15 degrees C to 50 ...

Inwards buildup of concentric polymer layers: a method for biomolecule encapsulation and microcapsule encoding.

Reproductive toxicology. Methyl salicylate.

Although many of the regulators of actin assembly are known, we do not understand how these components act together to organize cell shape and movement. To address this question, we analyzed the spatial dynamics of a key actin regulator—the Scar/WAVE complex—which plays an important role in regulating cell shape in both metazoans and plants. We have recently discovered that the Hem-1/Nap1 compo...

Reproductive toxicology. Methyl salicylate.

Background: Missing data is a challenging problem in many prognostic studies. Multiple imputation (MI) accounts for imputation uncertainty that allows for adequate statistical testing. We developed and tested a methodology combining MI with bootstrapping techniques for studying prognostic variable selection. Method: In our prospective cohort study we merged data from three different randomized ...

Accidental methyl salicylate poisoning in two adults.

Methyl salicylate (MS) is widely available as a component in many over-the-counter brands of ointments, lotions, liniments and medicated oils intended for topical application [1]. Among the most potent forms of methyl salicylate is oil of wintergreen (98% MS). Salicylate ointment has a very high concentration of MS. One teaspoon contains 7000 mg MS, equivalent to 90 baby aspirin tablets.We repo...
