Neuroprotein changes in the spinal cord of rodents with aliphatic gamma-diketone axonopathy induced by 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) are compared with those reported previously in aromatic gamma-diketone-like axonopathy induced by 1,2-diacetylbenzene (1,2-DAB). Sprague-Dawley rats were treated intraperitoneally with 500 mg/kg/day 2,5-HD, equimolar doses of 2,3-hexanedione (negative control), or an e...

Divinylbenzene (DVB) is produced by catalytic dehydrogenation of DEB at high temperature and atmospheric pressure. Ethylvinylbenzene (EVB) is produced as a useful chemical during dehydrogenation of DEB. Also some other liquid and gaseous by products is produced during dehydrogenation. A set-up has been developed to conduct the DEB dehydrogenation reactions experiments to prepare DVB at differen...

In this study, we identify 11 mouse pup volatiles putatively involved in maternal care induction adult females. For purpose, have adapted the dynamic headspace methodology to extract volatolome of whole alive animals. Untargeted metabolomic was used compare neonatal (4–6 days) with elder pups until age weaning (21–23 days old). Pup analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) coupled single quadrupole m...

The aim of this study was to analyze gaseous organic chemicals (GOCs) of high traffic (Nishinomiya City: 979,987 vehicles/day) and low traffic areas (Miki City: 29,338 vehicles/day) by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and to evaluate general environment exposure by PAHs in GOCs. After air sampling using an OMNIPORE membrane filter (< 0.45 microm) and Porapak-QS, sorbents were extrac...
