Application

  • Employing UV/H2O2 process for degradation of 2, 4-Diaminotoluene in synthetic wastewater: This study explores the degradation of carcinogenic Toluene-2, 4-diamine in synthetic wastewater using the UV/H2O2 process, highlighting its potential for improving water treatment methods (J Hosseini, A Shokri, 2017).
  • Development of magnetic, ferrite supported palladium catalysts for 2, 4-dinitrotoluene hydrogenation: The paper discusses the use of Pd/NiFe2O4 catalyst for efficient hydrogenation of 2,4-dinitrotoluene to 2,4-diaminotoluene, demonstrating a high yield and potential for industrial applications (V Hajdu, M Varga, G Muránszky, G Karacs, 2021).
  • Synthesis, characterisation and energetic performance of insensitive energetic salts formed between picric acid and 2, 3-diaminotoluene, 2, 4-diaminotoluene: This paper presents the synthesis and characterization of new energetic materials, which could be significant for the development of safer explosives and pyrotechnic devices (N Şen, H Nazir, N Atҫeken, KS Hope, N Acar, 2020).

This study examined the response of the Eker rat to nephrotoxic compounds and to genotoxic nonrenal carcinogens. Groups of male Eker rats received either no treatment; a vehicle treatment; treatment with a noncarcinogenic nephrotoxin (aluminum nitrilotriacetate, 2 mg/kg/day of aluminum

An important trend in current toxicology is the replacement, reduction, and refinement of the use of experimental animals (the 3R principle). We propose a model in which in vivo genotoxicity and short-term carcinogenicity assays are integrated with F344 gpt delta

Toluene diisocyanate (TDI) is used in industry in the production of flexible polyurethane foam, commonly a mixture of the 2,4- and 2,6- isomers. The production process may lead to exposure to diisocyanates which are associated with respiratory disease. A method

To improve the biological monitoring method for 2,6- and 2,4-toluenediisocyanate (TDI) exposure, we developed a simple and rapid method for analysis of the corresponding urinary metabolites, 2,6- and 2,4-toluenediamine (TDA) using liquid chromatograph-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). One ml of urine was
