33. Almost like lesults were obtained by partially asphyxiating a clog as explained in the following experiment. The animal had been anaesthetised and its left carotid artery connected with both a Fick-Manometer and a Ludwio-'d spring-kymograph. It was arranged previously, that on eacli occasion on which a signal would be given, the chloroform cap was to be held closely over the mouth and nose,...

Hydrogen bonds formed between C-H and various hydrogen bond acceptors play important roles in the structure of proteins and organic crystals, and the mechanisms of C-H bond cleavage reactions. Chloroform, a C-H hydrogen bond donor, can form weak hydrogen-bonded complexes with acetone and with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). When chloroform is dissolved in a mixed solvent consisting of acetone and DMS...

Chloroform is carcinogenic in rats, mice, and probably in dogs. Chloroform induced carcinomas of the liver and kidney and malignant tumors in other organs in rats and mice. Liver neoplasms have been described in three strains of mice. Carcinomas of the kidney were found in a first study in mice and in the repeat of that study. Dogs given chloroform developed neoplasms of the liver as well as in...

The aerial parts of Artemisia vulgaris were subjected for successive extraction in solvents methanol, hexane and chloroform, respectively, compounds present extract analysed by GC-MS analysis 12 different found chloroform which Germacrene was most abundantly (33.84%). Chloroform showed strong antibacterial activity, examined against 6 bacteria using the disc diffusion method. IC50 value accounted...
