In title compound, [Ni(C(9)H(5)NO(4)S)(H(2)O)(2)](n), the Ni(II) atom is coordinated by one N atom and two bridging O atoms from two 8-oxidoquinoline-5-sulfonate ligands, one sulfonate O atom from a third ligand, and two water mol-ecules in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The two Ni(II) atoms are linked to each other through the bridging O atoms, forming a dimer. Adjacent dimers are connected...

The influence of 0.05% sodium polyanethol sulfonate on the growth of 24 strains of Neisseria meningitidis in broth medium was examined; several of the strains were markedly inhibited. A paper disk method was evolved for screening the sensitivity of various bacteria to sodium polyanethol sulfonate on solid medium; the highest sensitivity was observed in N. meningitidis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae....

A series of perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) including perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) and perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) have been recently measured in a variety of environmental samples and biological matrices. In order to better understand the human exposure routes of these chemicals, levels of PFOS, PFOA, perfluorobutane sulfonate (PFBS), perfluorohexane sulfonate (PFHS) and perfluorooctane ...

In the title sulfonate derivative, C(24)H(26)O(9)S(3), all atoms apart from those of one of the 4-methyl-benzene-sulfonate residues lie approximately in a disc; the dihedral angles between the approximately orthogonal benzene ring and those in the plane are 74.53 (9) and 67.79 (11)°. In the crystal, mol-ecules are consolidated into the three-dimensional architecture by C-H⋯O inter-actions. One ...

The title compound, C4H12N+·C6H6NO3S-·C6H7NO3S, consists of an ion pair and a zwitterionic neutral mol-ecule. The cation adopts an extended conformation [C-C-N-C torsion angles = 177.1 (3) and -178.4 (3)°]. In the crystal, the components are linked by N-H⋯O and N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, generating a three-dimensional network, which is consolidated by weak C-H⋯O inter-actions.

BACKGROUND Perfluoroalkyl chemicals, including perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctane sulfonate, are man-made chemicals that have been detected in the blood of over 98% of the US population. Serum uric acid is a novel biomarker, even mild elevations of which has been implicated in the development of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disease, and chronic kidney disease. We exam...

Perfluorinated compounds have raised concern due to their potential 16 association with detrimental postnatal outcomes in animals and humans. We tested the effects 17 of perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) on a human pluripotent teratocarcinoma (known as 18 NCCIT) cells as an in vitro prototype for developmental toxicity in mammals. NCCIT 19 contains stem-cells able to differentiate into endoderm,...

The unexpected interaction between thiazole orange (TO) and calix[4]arene sulfonate is reported herein. H-Aggregates of TO switching on their fluorescence in solution are observed. Surprisingly, fluorescence enhancement is not linked to host-guest inclusion, but rather to calix[4]arene sulfonate serving as a template for several TO molecules.

Cation-exchange resins are used in the management of hyperkalemia, particularly in patients with end-stage renal disease. These resins were associated with gastrointestinal tract lesions, especially sodium polystyrene sulfonate (Kayexalate) mixed with sorbitol. We present a case of colonic necrosis after the administration of calcium polystyrene sulfonate (Kalimate) not suspended in sorbitol.
