volatile constituents of the seed kernel and leaf of cultivated moringa peregrina (forssk.) fiori, agricolt collected after hydrolysis were analyzed by gc and gc/ms. five glucosinolate degradation products which constituted almost the whole isolated oil of the seed kernel were identified to be: isobutyl isothiocyanate (94.0%), isopropyl isothiocyanate (4.9%), sec-butyl isothiocyanate (0.5%), n-...

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE), and isopropyl tert-butyl ether (IPTBE) have been synthesized for the first time over a non-acid ionic liquid as catalyst and dehydrator with high conversion (> 90%) and selectivity (> 90%) under mild conditions.

The fatty crystals in three previously published cases of sclerema neonatorum were identified by means of x-ray diffraction as sodium stearate and palmitic acid. A composite view of the pathogenesis of both sclerema neonatorum and adiponecrosis cutis neonatorum is discussed.

4-Aminopyridine (4-AP) blocks voltage gated potassium channels, restoring conduction to demyelinated axons and improving function in demyelinating conditions, but its use is associated with adverse effects and benefit in spinal cord injury is limited. Derivatives of 4-AP have been developed to improve clinical efficacy while reducing toxicity. We compared the therapeutic effects of orally admin...
