THE EFFECT OF ACETIC ACID ON THE STABILITY OF SERUM PROTEINS* BY GERTRUDE E. PERLMANNt

چکیده
Several investigators (1, 2) have shown that when horse serum is denatured a change in the relative distribution of electrophoretic components occurs. Van der Scheer, Wyckoff, and Clarke (1) found that heating of serum at 65” resulted in the formation of a single component, with the disappearance of the albumin and globulin peaks of the serum. This was confirmed by Davis, Hollaender, and Greenstein (2) who also demonstrated a similar phenomenon produced by ultraviolet radiation. In the present study the stability of serum and certain plasma protein fractions at acid pH values in the presence of acetatehas been investigated. To determine the stability of these proteins, electrophoretic analysis was carried out after removal of the acetate ions and the results are compared with those obtained with undenatured human serum.

Oxidative desulfurization of light fuel oil by using hydrogen peroxide in the presence of acetic acid catalyst
Hydrogen peroxide as an oxidant agent was used for desulfurization of a petroleum hydrocarbon fraction (C10-C22) with boiling range of 175-375 ℃, (light fuel oil) in the presence of acetic acid as catalyst. The oxidation was performed in an ultrasonic bath. It is found that increasing the amount of hydrogen peroxide lead to increase the oxidation rate and so desulfurizatio...
