Solutions of sodium fluoride at pH 3 to 4 inactivated enteroviruses, whereas other sodium salts had little or no effect on virus infectivity. Solutions of potassium fluoride also inactivated viruses under similar conditions. Light, temperature, and the presence of organic compounds such as detergents and fecal matter did not affect inactivation of virus by 0.4 M solutions of sodium fluoride at ...

the high temperature oxidation behaviour of nimonic-115 industrial alloy has been investigated in presence of  nano3, na2co3 and na2o2 at 850oc in flowing air. the oxidation kinetics and effect of salt deposition for the period of 48 h were studied. the scale morphologies were determined on the basis of x-ray diffraction analysis and scanning electron microscopic techniques. it has been shown t...

The appropriate esters 1-3 were synthesized by the alkylation of unsubstituted pyrimidin-8-on[2,1-f]theophylline I with ethyl-chloroacetate, ethyl-acrylate and ethyl-4-bromobutyrate. The acids 4-6 were obtained by hydrolysis of the esters 1-3, and transformed into Na salts 4a-6a. Amidation of the ester 1 with 25% ammonia and hydroxylamine led to amide 7 and N-hydroxyamide 8. The bromination of ...

Paraoxonase 1 (PON1), contained in plasma high-density lipoproteins, plays an important role in the protection of plasma lipoproteins and cell membranes from oxidative damage. Previous studies indicate that human PON1 is stimulated by high NaCl concentrations. The aim of this study was to characterize in more detail the effect of salts on serum PON1. Paraoxon-hydrolyzing activity of human serum...
