1. Denatured tobacco mosaic virus has a number of SH groups corresponding to its total sulfur content of 0.2 per cent. The SH groups were estimated by titration with ferricyanide, tetrathionate, and p-chloromercuribenzoate in guanidine hydrochloride solution and by reduction of the uric acid reagent in urea solution. 2. The SH groups of tobacco mosaic virus or their precursors can be abolished ...

RATIONALE Povidone-iodine is a broad-spectrum antiseptic applied topically to treat wounds and prevent their infection. There have been several case reports of acute kidney injury (AKI) in burn patients after povidone-iodine irrigation and in patients receiving the substance as a sclerotherapy agent for management of lymphocele after renal transplantation. However, biopsy-confirmed AKI after in...

To the Editor: When video-assisted thoracoscopy (VATS) is used to treat spontaneous pneumothorax (SP), the goal is to eliminate the lesions that caused the air leak and to perform pleurodesis to minimize recurrence. In our facility, iodine in hydroalcoholic solution has been used to treat primary SP since 1993. The only important postoperative complication has been the recurrence of pneumothora...

Iodine fortification of plants is a means improving the nutritional iodine status for humans. However, knowledge regarding absorption and accumulation in remains limited. Hence, we used nutrient culture isotope tracking methods, radioactivity 125I was measured by using multi-channel spectrometer to study characteristics an eggplant. The results showed that detected stems leaves after 20 min inc...

^Search has been carried out with the object of throwing %ht upon the mechanisms involved. A few general remarks will first be made with reference to hese phenomena before entering into a more specialised ^scussion, and as a typical example of adsorption may be Clted the action of various types of carbon upon solutions iodine in different solvents. Under favourable conditions colour of the iodi...

Due to their low cost, proven effectiveness, and lack of withholding time for milk and meat products, iodine solutions have been a popular choice in the treatment of dairy cow uterine abnormalities for over 50 years. This study was aimed at determining the quantity of iodine appearing in milk following the intrauterine administration of 60 mL of a 10% Lugol’s solution. Two groups of 6 cycling, ...

I then started the use of salol locally, arid tincture iodine injections intravenously in alternate cases. The results were most gratifying; but with far-reaching, quicker, and greater beneficial action with the iodine injections than the salol dusting. I invariably start with an injection of tincture iodine m. v. in 1 c.c. normal saline solution, and go up to m. xx. in 10 c.c.'s. The injection...

The chemical oxygen iodine laser (COIL) is the only chemical laser based on the electronic transitions. It emits at 1315 nm on the transition between the spin-orbit levels of the ground state configuration of the iodine atom. Here near resonant energy transfer takes place from a singlet delta oxygen [O 2 (a 1 Δ)] molecule to an atomic iodine atom. The singlet delta oxygen molecules O 2 (a 1 Δ) ...

The iodine value (iodine number) and hydroxyl are important analytical characteristics of fats oils. (I2) required saturating the fatty acids present in 100 grams oil or fat. Iodine is a measure total number double bonds (-C=C-) Unsaturated compounds contain molecules with triple which very reactive towards iodine. has been determined according to Hanus monobromide glacial acetic acid, then amo...
