Cytochrome P450(BM3)-F87G catalyzed the oxidative defluorination of 4-fluorophenol, followed by reduction of the resulting benzoquinone to hydroquinone via the NADPH P450-reductase activity of the enzyme. The k (cat) and K (m) for this reaction were 71 ± 5 min(-1) and

The present study shows that MP8 in the presence of H2O2 is able to catalyze the rupture of the stable carbon-fluorine bond of 4-fluorophenol, used as a model substrate for the oxidative dehalogenation reaction. 1,4-Benzoquinone was shown to be the

Peroxynitric acid (O2NOOH) nitrates L-tyrosine and related compounds at pH 2-5. During reaction with O2(15)NOOH in the probe of a 15N NMR spectrometer, the NMR signals of the nitration products of L-tyrosine, N-acetyl-L-tyrosine, 4-fluorophenol and 4-methoxyphenylacetic acid appear in emission

A spectrophotometric method for the quantitative determination of an enzyme activity resulting in the accumulation of 4-substituted phenols is described in this article. Toluene-4-monooxygenase (T4MO) activity in whole cells of Pseudomonas mendocina KR1 is used to demonstrate this method. This

Escherichia coli cells, expressing 4-hydroxyphenylacetate 3-hydroxylase, fully transformed 4-halogenated phenols to their equivalent catechols as single products in shaken flasks. 4-Fluorophenol was transformed at a rate 1.6, 1.8, and 3.4-fold higher than the biotransformation of 4-chloro-, 4-bromo-, and 4-iodo-phenol, respectively.

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf

  2. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
