Sacrificial amphiphiles: Eco-friendly chemical herders as oil spill mitigation chemicals

Crude oil spills are a major threat to marine biota and the environment. When light crude oil spills on water, it forms a thin layer that is difficult to clean by any methods of oil spill response. Under these circumstances, a special type of amphiphile termed as "chemical herder" is sprayed onto the water surrounding the spilled oil. The amphiphile forms a monomolecular layer on the water surf...

Development of Eco-Friendly Biodegradable Biolubricant Based on Jatropha Oil

Eco-Friendly Prepared Chemical Toner with Mixed Polyester Resin

Mixed polyester resins are fascinating materials in toner development because of the possibility to tune the toner properties by the simple mixing of different resin components. But the miscibility of two different components with quite different properties is still a challenge in both pulverized and chemical toners. For chemical toners, one alternative is to use organic media to dissolve both ...

Ozone-friendly chemicals.

-Monoclonal antibody against an osteogenic-sarcoma cell line (791T) was prepared by production and cloning of a somatic-cell hybrid between the mouse myeloma P3-NS1 and spleen cells from 791T-immunized mice. Three clones of a hybridoma producing antibody against 791T, as detected by 1251-labelled Protein A binding, were tested against a range of normal and tumour cell targets to determine the p...
