3-Methyl-4-nitrophenol is one of the major breakdown products of fenitrothion [O,O-dimethyl O-(3-methyl-4-nitrophenyl) thiophosphate], a recalcitrant organophosphate insecticide used in agriculture. Being the non-polar methylated aromatic compound, 3-methyl-4-nitrophenol is highly toxic and, therefore, a complete degradation of this compound is important for environmental decontamination/biorem...

The relationship between alveolar PO2 and the rate of O-demethylation of p-nitroanisole, a model substrate for cytochrome P-450 -linked mixed-function oxidation, was evaluated in the isolated rabbit lung perfused with Krebs-Ringer bicarbonate buffer. The appearance of the product, p-nitrophenol, in the pulmonary perfusate was measured spectrophotometrically, The PO2 of the ventilating gas was v...

 In this paper, a novel ternary nanocomposite namely reduced graphene oxide/hydroxyapatite/silver (rGO/HAP/Ag) was prepared by a simple hydrothermal method using graphene oxide nanosheets, Ca(NO3)2, (NH4)2HPO4, and AgNO3 as starting materials. The as-prepared nanocomposite was characterized by using various photophysical techniqu...

Resonance Raman spectra were obtained for 2-nitrophenol in cyclohexane solution with excitation wavelengths in resonance with the charge-transfer (CT) proton transfer band absorption. These spectra indicate that the Franck-Condon region photodissociation dynamics have multidimensional character with motion along more than 15 normal modes: the nominal CCH bend+CC stretch nu(12) (1326 cm(-1)), th...

Mixed ligand complexes of transition metal ions such as Mn(II), Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) have been synthesized using 4-(Benzeneazo)salicylaldehyde, 2-amino-4-nitrophenol and nitrates of respective metal ions. The synthesized complexes have been characterized with infra red (IR), electronic, and H-NMR Spectra, molar conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements at room t...

Rabbit liver UDP-glucuronyltransferase activity was resolved into two separate fractions on DEAE-cellulose, one containing most of the transferase activity toward oestrone and the other most of the activity toward p-nitrophenol. These two activities were completely separated by rechromatography of each fraction on a second DEAE-cellulose column.

The reaction of recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator with the inverse substrate 4-amidino-2-nitrophenyl 4'-anisate results in the rapid release of the chromogen 4-amidino-2-nitrophenol and the accumulation of the relatively stable 4-anisoyl-enzyme. Spectrophotometric monitoring of the reaction enables the operational molarity of the enzyme to be determined.

attracted considerable interest in recent years, especially in relation to homeostases of lifeforms. Among such recognitions, hydrogen bonding is the most frequently evaluated, since it is indispensable for nucleic acid derivatives to hybridize and function. The key components in hydrogen-bond formations of biomolecules are defined as amide (or lactam) structures. Previously, on the acylation o...
