Synthesis of Surface Active Agents. I.

Surfactants - Surface Active Agents

The definition for a detergent is a cleaning agent. The main cleaning agent used in earlier days was soap. This term means a compound formed from the reaction of a fatty acid with a base such as caustic soda, forming the sodium soap of the acid. The more commonly used cleaning agent in this day and age is the synthetic detergent (SYNDET) which is a formulation such as TIDE or FAB. The essential...

synthesis and characterization of potentially biological active cyclometallated organoplatinum(ii) complexes

this work is presented in five parts. in the first part preparation of the starting complex [pt(c^n)cl(dmso)], 1, in which c^n = n(1),c(2?)-chelated, deprotonated 2-phenylpyridine, and dmso = dimethylsulfoxide, and its reaction with 1 equiv of the biphosphine ligands bis(diphenylphosphino)amine, dppa, or bis(diphenylphosphino)methane, dppm, to give the complex [pt(c^n)cl(dppa)], 2, or [pt(c^n)c...

Heterogeneous Active Agents, I: Semantics

Over the years, many different agent programming languages have been proposed. In this paper, we propose a concept called Agent Programs using which, the way an agent should act in various situations can be declaratively specified by the creator of that agent. Agent Programs may be built on top of arbitrary pieces of software code and may be used to specify what an agent is obliged to do, what ...

Surface active agents as tumor promoters.

*TUC Centenary Institute of Occupational Health London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, Keppel St., London WC1E-7HT, England. the types of promoter listed have not been demonstrated as such by animal experiments, but if a substance is a carcinogenic but not mutagenic, then it is most probably a tumor promoter. This assumes that mutagens are initiators and that promoters can induce cance...
