Reaction between Nitrogen Monoxide and Carbon Monoxide over Superconducting Bi–Sr–Ca–Cu and Related Mixed Oxides

Exhaled Nitrogen Oxides and Carbon Monoxide in Asthma and Cystic Fibrosis: Markers of Inflammation?

Background: Exhaled markers of airway inflammation have attracted much interest as potential tools for monitoring the bronchial inflammation of respiratory disease. Exhaled nitric oxide (NO), its metabolites nitrite and nitrate in breath condensate (EBC), and exhaled carbon monoxide (CO), have been suggested for this purpose. However, their site of origin has not been fully investigated and the...

Biological signaling by carbon monoxide and carbon monoxide-releasing molecules.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is continuously produced in mammalian cells during the degradation of heme. It is a stable gaseous molecule that reacts selectively with transition metals in a specific redox state, and these characteristics restrict the interaction of CO with defined biological targets that transduce its signaling activity. Because of the high affinity of CO for ferrous heme, these targets...

Ignition Kinetics of Carbon Monoxide - Oxygen Reaction

Outdoor carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, and sudden infant death syndrome.

AIMS To investigate whether infants who died of SIDS were more likely to have higher acute and lifetime average exposures to outdoor carbon monoxide (CO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO2) than comparison healthy infants. METHODS A total of 169 case and 169 matched control infants born between 1988 and 1992, were studied. CO and NO2 concentrations, averaged for all days within the infant's lifespan, ...
