Terms modified by Fumaric Acid Selected AbstractsUSE OF CLARIFYING AGENTS AND ULTRA FILTER TO DECREASE FUMARIC ACID, HMF AND INCREASE CLARITY OF APPLE JUICEJOURNAL OF FOOD QUALITY, Issue 3 2006YAHYA TULEK ABSTRACT In this study, the effects of eight different processing treatments of apple juice (AJ) production (Process 1: Ultra filtration [UF], Process 2: Activated charcoal [AC], Process 3: polyvinylpolypyrolidone [PVPP], Process 4: Gelatine [G] + Bentonite [B], Process 5: [G + B] + UF, Process 6: [G + B] + AC, Process 7: [G + B] + PVPP and Process 8: [G + B] + Kieselguhr [K]) on the fumaric acid (FA), hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), color and clearness values of AJ were investigated. With the exception of Processes 1 and 5, AC, K, PVPP, G and B were used at various doses in other processes. FA, HMF, color and clearness values of control sample were determined as 3.24 mg/L, 3.84 mg/L, 48.5 (%T) and 94.1 (%T), respectively. The highest proportional decrement in FA and HMF values of the samples were observed with Process 6 at the level of 5. The fifth level of Process 6 resulted in 35.8% (3.24,2.08 mg/L) and 35.9% (3.84 to 2.46 mg/L) reductions in FA and HMF values, respectively. On the other hand, the best improvement in clearness of AJ was obtained with Process 6 at the fourth level and obtained as 98.9 (%T). [source] Shoe contact dermatitis from dimethyl fumarate: clinical manifestations, patch test results, chemical analysis, and source of exposureCONTACT DERMATITIS, Issue 5 2009Ana Giménez-Arnau Background: The methyl ester form of fumaric acid named dimethyl fumarate (DMF) is an effective mould-growth inhibitor. Its irritating and sensitizing properties were demonstrated in animal models. Recently, DMF has been identified as responsible for furniture contact dermatitis in Europe. Objective: To describe the clinical manifestations, patch test results, shoe chemical analysis, and source of exposure to DMF-induced shoe contact dermatitis. Patients, Materials, and Methods: Patients with suspected shoe contact dermatitis were studied in compliance with the Declaration of Helsinki. Patch test results obtained with their own shoe and the European baseline series, acrylates and fumaric acid esters (FAE), were recorded according to international guidelines. The content of DMF in shoes was analysed with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Results: Acute, immediate irritant contact dermatitis and non-immunological contact urticaria were observed in eight adults and two children, respectively. All the adult patients studied developed a delayed sensitization demonstrated by a positive patch testing to DMF , 0.1% in pet. Cross-reactivity with other FAEs and acrylates was observed. At least 12 different shoe brands were investigated. The chemical analysis from the available shoes showed the presence of DMF. Conclusion: DMF in shoes was responsible for severe contact dermatitis. Global preventive measures for avoiding contact with DMF are necessary. [source] Novel Metallosupramolecular Networks Constructed from CuII, NiII, and CdII with Mixed Ligands: Crystal Structures, Fluorescence, and MagnetismEUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INORGANIC CHEMISTRY, Issue 6 2006Miao Du Abstract Reactions of mixed ligands succinic acid (H2suc) and bent dipyridines, such as 2,5-bis(3-pyridyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole (3-bpo) and its 4- N -donor analog (4-bpo), with inorganic CuII, NiII, and CdII salts yield three new metal-organic coordination frameworks {[Cu(suc)(3-bpo)(H2O)2]·(H2O)1.75}n (1), {[Ni(suc)(4-bpo)(H2O)2]·(H2O)5}n (3), and {[Cd2(suc)2(3-bpo)2(H2O)2]·(H2O)6.75}n (4), in which the metal centers are linked by bridging ligands 3-bpo/4-bpo and suc2, along two directions to form 2D infinite networks. The corrugated 2D nets of 1 and 4, obtained under hydrothermal conditions, align in an interdigitated manner with the presence of significant aromatic-stacking interactions to result in similar 3D architectures. The 2D sheets in 3 are extended by interlayer hydrogen bonds to afford a 3D structure. However, when succinic acid is replaced by fumaric acid (H2fum) in the reaction with 3-bpo and CuII salt, a metallacyclophane [Cu(Hfum)2(3-bpo)(H2O)]2·(3-bpo)2·(H2O)6 (2) is generated. The binuclear coordinated motifs are hydrogen-bonded to the lattice water chains to furnish a unique 3D channel-like framework, in which the guest 3-bpo molecules are accommodated. The thermal stabilities of these new materials were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of mass loss. The magnetic coupling in complexes 1,3 is antiferromagnetic and very small, which is as expected considering the long organic bridges between the paramagnetic centers. The solid-state luminescence properties of 4 reveal an intense fluorescence emission at 378 nm. (© Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

These organic acids are synthesized and accumulated in the medium to very high concentrations by filamentous fungi such as Aspergillus spp. and Rhizopus sp. This article reviews basic research on the unusual acid production capability and the associated metabolic pathways operating under defined stress conditions in these specific fungi. In particular, we describe and discuss the importance of the cytosolic reductive TCA pathway, which includes the cytosolic activities of pyruvate carboxylase, malate dehydrogenase and fumarase, for production of fumaric and L -malic acids. This article also describes the differences between fumaric acid, L -malic acid and citric acid production by different organisms (filamentous fungi, yeast, and higher eukaryotes), and the possible application of novel technologies (genetic engineering and bioinformatics) to fungal systems which may offer new industrial potential of filamentous fungi for the production of valuable metabolites.

After centrifugation and filtration, the samples were passed through to an anion exchange resin and the organic acids were released using 0.1 N HCl. The chromatographic separation was achieved with isocratic analysis in a 20-min run. The method was reliable and sensitive. The coefficient of determination of the standard calibration curve is 0.9925 , r2 , 0.9999 and the limit of detection ranged from 0.08 to 6.00 mg/kg for trans -aconitic acid and acetic acid, respectively. The limit of quantification ranged from 0.19 to 15.18 mg/kg for trans-aconitic and acetic acid, respectively. To establish the efficiency of the anion resin the procedure was applied to a standard solution of a mixture of organic acids. The organic acids recovery ranged from 87.0% ± 1.9 for citramalic acid to 109.9% ± 5.2 for fumaric acid.

[source] Impurities in a morphine sulfate drug product identified as 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furfural, 10-hydroxymorphine and 10-oxomorphineJOURNAL OF PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES, Issue 3 2003Seán S. Kelly Abstract Stability testing of morphine sulfate formulated with nonpareil sugar seeds (consisting of sucrose and starch) and fumaric acid revealed the formation of the three impurities 5-(hydroxymethyl)-2-furfural, 10-hydroxymorphine and 10-oxomorphine. 5-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-furfural was isolated via semipreparative HPLC utilizing volatile mobile phase constituents and was identified by analysis of its HRMS and NMR spectra. 10-Hydroxymorphine and 10-oxomorphine were obtained via semipreparative HPLC and subsequent removal of ion-pair reagents using an anion exchange resin, or by solid phase extraction, and identified by spectroscopic analysis followed by comparison with authentic materials. 5-(Hydroxymethyl)-2-furfural is a degradation product of hexose sugars, and its formation in the presence of morphine sulfate formulated with fumaric acid suggests that caution should be exercised when including nonpareil seeds in formulations that contain acidic drug salts and/or acid excipients. The preliminary results of tests on the interaction of acidic salts of some other drugs with nonpareil seeds are presented. © 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc. and the American Pharmaceutical Association J Pharm Sci 92:485,493, 2003 [source] Influence of branch bending on sugar, organic acid and phenolic content in fruits of ,Williams' pears (Pyrus communis L.)JOURNAL OF THE SCIENCE OF FOOD AND AGRICULTURE, Issue 14 2006Mateja Colaric Abstract Selected sugars, organic acids and phenolic compounds were analysed in mature fruits of ,Williams' pears using high-performance liquid chromatography. Fruits were harvested from the branches of trees tested in three treatments: branches were bent in summer 2003 (1 September), in spring 2004 (15 May) and control (branches were not bent). Pears contained up to 73.54 g kg,1 fresh weight (FW) of fructose, 9.42 g kg,1 FW of glucose, 7.94 g kg,1 FW of sucrose and 24.59 g kg,1 FW of sorbitol. Major organic acids were (in order of descending quantity) citric, malic, shikimic and fumaric acid (up to 3.05 g kg,1 FW, 2.24 g kg,1 FW, 71.79 mg kg,1 FW and 0.49 mg kg,1 FW, respectively). Chlorogenic acid (280.86,357.34 mg kg,1 FW) was the predominant phenolic acid, followed in concentration (mg kg,1 FW) by syringic acid (95.46,131.32), epicatechin (46.55,83.09), catechin (25.67,44.81), vanillic acid (1.87,3.48), sinapic acid (0.83,1.72) and caffeic acid (0.72,1.04). Significant differences in content of fructose, sorbitol, total sugars, catechin, epicatechin, sinapic acid, syringic acid, and a sum of determined phenolic compounds were observed among the treatments. Fruits from summer bending branches had the lowest content of individual sugars, citric acid and phenolic compounds and the highest content of malic, shikimic and fumaric acid. The highest content of fructose, sorbitol, sucrose, total sugars, caffeic acid, catechin, epicatechin and syringic acid were determined in the fruits from the spring treatment. In the control treatment the highest content of glucose, citric acid, chlorogenic acid, sinapic acid, vanillic acid, as well a sum of determined phenolics, were observed. The lowest content of fumaric acid was in the spring treatment and of malic and shikimic acid in the control.

In both compounds, protonation of the ring N atom of the 2-amino-1,3-thiazole and deprotonation of one of the carboxyl groups are observed. The asymmetric unit of 2ATHF contains three independent ion pairs. The hydrogen maleate ion of 2ATHM shows a short intramolecular O,H...O hydrogen bond with an O...O distance of 2.4663,(19),Å. An extensive hydrogen-bonded network is observed in both compounds, involving N,H...O and O,H...O hydrogen bonds. 2ATHM forms two-dimensional sheets parallel to the ab plane, extending as independent parallel sheets along the c axis, whereas 2ATHF forms two-dimensional zigzag layers parallel to the bc plane, extending as independent parallel layers along the a axis. [source] Hydrogen-bonded networks in 5-chloropyridin-2-amine,fumaric acid (2/1) and 2-aminopyridinium dl -malateACTA CRYSTALLOGRAPHICA SECTION C, Issue 4 2010Genivaldo Julio Perpétuo Crystals of 5-chloropyridin-2-amine,(2E)-but-2-enedioate (2/1), 2C5H5ClN2·C4H4O4, (I), and 2-aminopyridinium dl -3-carboxy-2-hydroxypropanoate, C5H7N2+·C4H5O5,, (II), are built from the neutral 5-chloropyridin-2-amine molecule and fumaric acid in the case of (I) and from ring-N-protonated 2-aminopyridinium cations and malate anions in (II). The fumaric acid molecule lies on an inversion centre. In (I), the neutral 5-chloropyridin-2-amine and fumaric acid molecules interact via hydrogen bonds, forming two-dimensional layers parallel to the (100) plane, whereas in (II), oppositely charged units interact via ionic and hydrogen bonds, forming a three-dimensional network.

Franklin Both maleic and fumaric acid readily form adducts or complexes with other organic molecules. The 1:1 adduct formed by quinolin-8-ol (oxine) with maleic and fumaric acid are salts, namely 8-hydroxyquinolinium hydrogen maleate, C9H8NO+·C4H3O4,, (I), and 8-hydroxyquinolinium hydrogen fumarate, C9H8NO+·C4H3O4,, (II). The cations and anions of both salts are linked by ionic N+,H...O, hydrogen bonds. The maleate salt crystallizes in the space group P212121, while the fumarate salt crystallizes in P. The maleic and fumaric acids in their complex forms exist as semimaleate and semifumarate ions (mono-ionized state), respectively. Classical N,H...O and O,H...O hydrogen bonds, together with short C,H...O contacts, generate an extensive hydrogen-bonding network. The crystal structures of the maleate and fumarate salts of oxine have been elucidated to study the importance of noncovalent interactions in the aggregation and interaction patterns of biological molecules. The structures of the salts of the Z and E isomers of butenedioic acid (maleic and fumaric acid, respectively) with quinolin-8-ol are compared. [source] Synthesis and Characterization of Three Diverse Coordination Frameworks under Co-ligand InterventionCHINESE JOURNAL OF CHEMISTRY, Issue 2 2009Ping LIU Abstract The chelating organic ligands of 2,2,-bipyridine (2,2,-bipy), di(pyrid-2-yl)amine (dpa) and 2,6-di(pyrid-2-ylamino)pyridine (dpap) were respectively applied to react with H2fum (fumaric acid) and copper salts, affording three different complexes [Cu2(fum)(2,2,-bipy)4]·2ClO4 (1), [Cu2(µ-OH)2(fum)(dpa)2]·2H2O (2) and [Cu(SO4)(H2O)(dpap)]·H2O (3). These complexes were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Each penta-coordinated Cu(II) ion exhibits a distorted trigonal bipyramidal geometry in 1. The fum ligand links copper ions to form a dinuclear copper unit. While in 2, the fum ligands connect [Cu2(µ-OH)2(dpa)2] unit to construct a 1D zigzag chain. Unexpectedly, when dpap instead of dpa was used under the same conditions, only one mononuclear complex 3 was formed. Crystal packings show that 1,3 form 3D supramolecular architectures through non-covalent interactions (multiple hydrogen bonds and C,H··· ,/,-, interactions). In addition, the study of the magnetic property reveals dominating ferromagnetic interactions between Cu(II) atoms in 1. [source] Comparison between photocatalytic ozonation and other oxidation processes for the removal of phenols from waterJOURNAL OF CHEMICAL TECHNOLOGY & BIOTECHNOLOGY, Issue 9 2005Fernando J Beltrán Abstract Photocatalytic ozonation (1O3 + VUV + TiO2), ozonation (O3), catalytic ozonation (O3 + TiO2), ozone photolysis (O3 + VUV), photocatalysis (TiO2 + VUV) and photolysis (VUV) have been compared in terms of formation of intermediates, extent of, mineralization (TOC, COD, chloride, nitrate) and kinetics in the aqueous treatment of three phenols (phenol, p -chlorophenol and p -nitrophenol). In all cases, photocatalytic ozonation led to lower degradation times for chemical oxygen demand and total organic carbon removal. Intermediates formed were similar in the different oxidation systems with some exceptions. They can be classified into three different types: polyphenols (resorcinol, catechol, hydroquinone), unsaturated carboxylic acids (maleic and fumaric acids) and saturated carboxylic acids (glyoxylic, formic and oxalic acids). First order kinetic equations have been checked for the oxidation processes studied in the case of the parent compound. Rate constants of these systems have also been calculated.
