Sulphur dyeing using non - sulphide reducing agents
نویسنده
چکیده
Cotton hanks were dyed with three different sulphur dyes using non-sulphide reducing agents such as glucose, fructose, invert sugar and molasses. The alkalies employed for reduction were sodium carbonate and sodium hydroxide. Invert sugar as a reducing agent and sodium carbonate as alkali proved to be better as this combination gave results comparable to those obtained with the conventional sodium sulphide dyeing with respect to depth and tone of dyeing. The fastness properties were also found to be comparable.

The availability of sulphur for Clostridium perfringens and an examination of hydrogen sulphide production.
The utilization of several inorganic and organic sulphur compounds by three strains of Clostridium perfringens and the production of hydrogen sulphide from these compounds was investigated. Sulphate, sulphite, thiosulphate and sulphide cannot supply sulphur to the organism, neither do they have any effect, when added in non-toxic concentrations, on the growth in media containing utilizable orga...
متن کاملThe production of free sulphur from l-cystine by a soil bacterium.
IN the ordinary putrefaction of protein material the protein-sulphur is liberated mainly as hydrogen sulphide accompanied in a few cases by relatively small amounts of mercaptans. The present paper is an account of an organism which is capable of the aerobic degradation of l-cystine with the direct liberation of free sulphur. In earlier work on the bacterial decomposition of cystine the medium ...
متن کاملDynamics of anoxygenic photosynthesis in an experimental green sulphur bacteria biofilm.
The dynamics of sulphide oxidation in an experimental biofilm of the green sulphur bacterium, Prosthecochloris aestuarii, were studied using a newly developed light-dark cycling procedure. The biofilm was grown for 6 weeks in a benthic gradient chamber, in which gradients of light, sulphide and oxygen were imposed experimentally. The H2S concentrations and pH were measured with microsensors as ...
متن کاملIdentification of gases responsible for the odour of human flatus and evaluation of a device purported to reduce this odour.
BACKGROUND/AIMS While the social significance of flatus derives mainly from its odour, previous studies have focused on the non-odoriferous components of rectal gas. The aims of the present study were to determine the role of sulphur-containing gases in flatus odour and test the efficacy of a device purported to reduce this odour. METHODS Flatus was quantitatively collected via rectal tube fr...
متن کاملSulphite as Intermediate Sulphur Compound in Anaerobic Sulphide Oxidation to Thiosulphate by Marine Cyanobacteria
Anaerobic sulphide oxidation in the light was studied with seven cyanobacterial strains isolated from the southern Baltic Sea. All strains oxidized sulphide (1.2-3.5 mM) stoichiometrically to thiosulphate. No elemental sulphur could be detected as end product of anoxygenic photosynthesis. Sulphite as intermediate sulphur compound was released into the growth medium during anaerobic sulphide oxi...
