[source] Aluminum induces chromosome aberrations, micronuclei, and cell cycle dysfunction in root cells of Vicia fabaENVIRONMENTAL TOXICOLOGY, Issue 2 2010Min Yi Abstract Aluminum (Al) exists naturally in air, water, and soil, and also in our diet. Al can be absorbed into the human body and accumulates in different tissues, which has been linked to the occurrence of Alzheimer's disease and various neurological disorders. By using Vicia cytogenetic tests, which are commonly used to monitor the genotoxicity of environmental pollutants, cytogenetic effects of aluminum (AlCl3) were investigated in this study. Present results showed that Al caused significant increases in the frequencies of micronuclei (MN) and anaphase chromosome aberrations in Vicia faba root tips exposed to Al over a concentration-tested range of 0.01,10 mM for 12 h. The frequency of micronucleated cells was higher in Al-treated groups at pH 4.5 than that at pH 5.8. Similarly, AlCl3 treatment caused a decrease in the number of mitotic cells in a dose- and pH-dependent manner. The number of cells in each mitotic phase changed in Al-treated samples. Mitotic indices (MI) decreased with the increases of pycnotic cells. Our results demonstrate that aluminum chloride is a clear clastogenic/genotoxic and cytotoxic agent in Vicia root cells. The V. faba cytogenetic test could be used for the genotoxicity monitoring of aluminum water contamination. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Environ Toxicol, 2010. [source] Synthesis, characterization, and antimicrobial activity of some novel poly(ether ketone)sJOURNAL OF POLYMER SCIENCE (IN TWO SECTIONS), Issue 15 2003Samir A. Patel Abstract Low molecular weight poly(ether ketone)s were synthesized from phenol, 1,4-phenylenedioxy diacetylchloride, chloroacetylchloride, and dichloroalkanes [1,2-dichloroethane and dichloromethane] by a Friedel,Crafts reaction with anhydrous aluminum chloride as a catalyst and carbon disulfide as a solvent. The conditions for the preparation of the poly(ether ketone)s and the chlorine contents obtained with the Carius method were examined, and a reaction scheme for each resin was established. The molecular weights and polydispersities of the resins were obtained by gel permeation chromatography. The polyketones were characterized by IR spectroscopy. The characteristic frequencies due to different functional groups were assigned. The thermal properties of the resins were studied with thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry. The characteristic temperatures of thermal degradation for the poly(ether ketone)s were evaluated with thermogravimetric analysis. The kinetic parameters for the decomposition reactions of the resins were obtained with Broido and Doyle's method, and the heats of fusion were obtained from differential scanning calorimetry thermograms. The polyketones were thermally stable up to 200 °C. All the polyketones were tested for their microbial properties against bacteria, fungi, and yeast. The effect of poly(ether ketone)s on the growth of these microorganisms was investigated, and the polyketones were found to inhibit the growth of the microorganisms to a considerable extent. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

When the , -irradiation dose was 19 kGy or more, and the concentration of PGA in water was 2 wt.-% or more, transparent hydrogels could be produced. For the 19 kGy dose, the produced hydrogel was very weak, however, the specific water content (wt. of absorbed water/wt. of dry hydrogel) of this PGA hydrogel was approximately 3,500. The specific water content decreased to 200, increasing when the , -irradiation dose was over 100 kGy. Under acid conditions or upon the addition of electrolytes, the PGA hydrogels shrunk. The PGA hydrogel was pH-sensitive and the change in the volume of the hydrogel depended on the pH value outside the hydrogel in the swelling medium. This PGA hydrogel was hydrodegradable and biodegradable. A new novel purifier reagent (coagulant), made from the PGA hydrogels, for contaminated turbid water has been found and developed by Japanese companies. A very small amount of this coagulant (only 2 ppm in turbid water) with poly(aluminum chloride) can be used for the purification of turbid water. A PL aqueous solution also can change into a hydrogel by , -irradiation. The specific water content of the PL hyrdogel ranged from 20 to 160 depending on the preparation conditions. Under acid conditions, the PL hydrogel swelled because of the ionic repulsion of the protonated amino groups in the PL molecules. The rate of enzymatic degradation of the respective PL hydrogels by a neutral protease was much faster than the rate of simple hydrolytic degradation. [source] Propylene polymerization in a semibatch reactor.POLYMER ENGINEERING & SCIENCE, Issue 12 2001Analysis of soluble metallocene catalyst behavior through reactor modeling We study the process involved in metallocene activation and further propylene polymerization. In this paper, we begin by analyzing the behavior of soluble metallocene in propylene polymerization before advancing to the study of the heterogeneous polymerization. Experimental data obtained in a semibatch laboratory polymerization reactor using ethylenbisindenylzirconium dichloride (EtInd2ZrCl2)/ methylaluminoxane (MAO) are combined with a mathermatical model providing useful information such as number of active sites and their activation patterns. We present a mathematical model for the reactor that predicts not only reactor productivity but also the molecular properties of the product. We apply the model to soluble systems in order to find the optimal parameters for the catalyst itself and in the presence of different types of additives such as aluminum chloride (AlCl3) and ethyl benzoate (E.B.). [source] Synthesis of poly(aryl ether ketone)s containing diphenyl moieties by electrophilic Friedel,Crafts solution polycondensationPOLYMERS FOR ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES, Issue 12 2009Mingzhong Cai Abstract A new monomer, 4,4,-bis(4-phenoxybenzoyl)diphenyl (BPOBDP), was prepared by Friedel,Crafts reaction of 4-bromobenzoyl chloride and diphenyl, followed by condensation with potassium phenoxide. Novel poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK)/poly(ether ketone diphenyl ketone ether ketone ketone) (PEKDKEKK) copolymers were synthesized by electrophilic Friedel,Crafts solution copolycondensation of isophthaloyl chloride (IPC) with a mixture of diphenyl ether (DPE) and BPOBDP, in the presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride and N -methyl-pyrrolidone (NMP) in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE). The copolymers obtained were characterized by various analytical techniques such as FT-IR, DSC, TGA, and wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD). The results showed that the resulting copolymers exhibited excellent thermal stability due to the existence of diphenyl moieties in the main chain. The glass transition temperatures are above 152°C, the melting temperatures are above 276°C, and the temperatures at a 5% weight loss are above 548°C in nitrogen. The copolymers with 50,70,mol% BPOBDP had tensile strengths of 101.5,102.7,MPa, Young's moduli of 3.23,3.41,GPa, and elongations at break of 12,17%. All these copolymers were semicrystalline and insoluble in organic solvents. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source] Preparation of [5,6]- and [6,6]-Oxahomofullerene Derivatives and Their Interconversion by Lewis Acid Assisted Reactions of Fullerene Mixed PeroxidesCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 18 2005Shaohua Huang Abstract [60]Fullerene mixed peroxides C60(O)(OOtBu)4 exhibit chemo- and regioselective reactions under mild conditions. The epoxy moiety is opened by ferric chloride to form vicinal hydroxy chloride C60Cl(OH)(OOtBu)4. BF3 is also effective in opening the epoxy moiety. The OO bond of the fullerene mixed peroxide is cleaved by aluminum chloride to form both [5,6]- and [6,6]-fullerene hemiketals (oxohomo[60]fullerenes). A Hock-type rearrangement is proposed for the formation of the hemiketals, in which a fullerene CC bond is cleaved. Lewis acids and/or visible light can initiate isomerization of the hemiketal isomers. Single-crystal X-ray analysis and theoretical calculations confirmed the results. [source] |
