General description

EMPLURA® is our low-cost alternative to high-purity qualities. With EMPLURA we offer a range of solvents for a plurality of basic applications in non-regulated industries and for less demanding applications, preparative laboratory work and cleaning purposes. EMPLURA solvents provide adequate specifications with the most important parameters.

Application


  • Multi-omics analysis of nitrifying sludge under carbon disulfide stress: Nitrification performance and molecular mechanisms.: This study presents a multi-omics analysis of nitrifying sludge under carbon disulfide stress, detailing impacts on nitrification performance and molecular mechanisms, providing insights into environmental and industrial applications of carbon disulfide in waste management and biological treatment processes (Liu et al., 2024).

  • Design and synthesis of novel 1,3,4-thiadiazole thioglycosides as promising antimicrobial potent structures.: Highlights the synthesis of 1,3,4-thiadiazole thioglycosides using carbon disulfide, exploring their antimicrobial potential, which may contribute to the development of new treatments for bacterial infections, particularly in resistance scenarios (Abu-Zaied et al., 2024).

  • New Insights on Solvent-Induced Changes in Refractivity and Specific Rotation of Poly(propylene oxide) Systems Extracted from Channeled Spectra.: Discusses findings on how solvents influence the optical properties of polymeric systems involving carbon disulfide, relevant to materials science and chemical engineering research (Zara et al., 2024).
