Ranhand, Jon M. (University of Cincinnati, Cincinnati, Ohio), and Herman C. Lichstein. Periodate inhibition of transformation and competence development in Haemophilus influenzae. J. Bacteriol. 92:956-959. 1966.-Periodate treatment of competent cells reduced the frequency of transformation to streptomycin resistance about 90% while reducing cell viability about 30% or less. Moreover, when perio...

Chemicals: Thallium (I) nitrate (TlNO3, 99.9%), tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI, 99%), tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBABr, 98%), 1-octadecene (ODE, tech. 90%), oleylamine (OLA, tech. 70%), oleic acid (OA, tech. 90%), potassium bromide (KBr, 99%) and fluorescein sodium salt (98.5-100.5%) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Hexane (98%), toluene (99.5%), 1-butanol (99.5%) and acetonitrile (99.8%) w...

Vapor-liquid equilibrium and density measurements have been performed on 1.00-5.89 m tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) in mixtures of 2-propanoland water. The VLE experiments were performed using a modified Othmer still a t ambient pressure. The effect of salt on the relative volatility of 2-propanol was evaluated at molalities of 1.00,1.79, and 5.89 over the full range of solvent composition. ...

This study investigated the effects of four structurally different quaternary ammonium salts (QASs), i.e., tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate [TBA][BF4], tetrahexylammonium tetrafluoroborate [THA][BF4], tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate [TBA][PF6], and tetrahexylammonium hexafluorophosphate [THA][PF6], on the growth and development of three weed species: gallant soldier (Galinsoga parvif...

1 The structures of sialo-oligosaccharide alditols as determined by H-NMR spectrometry together with methylation analysis did not correspond with those derived previously from quantitative periodate oxidation data alone. Possible causes of the discrepancy were explored in the periodate oxidation methodology. No free sialic acid was released by the acidity of the periodate in the course of oxida...

Periodate oxidation is one of the most important reaction in structural study of non-ionic polysaccharide. Periodate oxidation was done using sodium metaperiodate as oxidant proposed by Fluery & Lange’s method. It consumed 1.16 moles of periodate and liberated 0.23 moles of formic acid per mole of anhydrohexose unit after 50 hrs. The isolated water soluble seeds extract yielded sugars as D-gala...

Tetraethyl-, tetrapropyl-, and tetrabutylammonium ions are capillary-active on the interface water-mercury. In the adsorbed state they increase Brdicka and presodium currents. These currents drop sharply at potentials where tetrabutylammonium ions are desorbed, these potentials being -1.60, -1.66, -1.72, and -1.79 V versus the saturated calomel electrode (SCE) at tetrabutylammonium concentratio...
