6-Methylpurine (MeP) is a toxic adenine analog used as a bisubstrate inhibitor of enzymes that bind adenosyl moieties and which may become phosphorylated to levels that inhibit RNA and protein synthesis.
This work investigated impacts of iodide (I-) on the transformation of the widely used phenolic preservative methylparaben (MeP) as well as 11 other phenolic compounds by potassium permanganate (KMnO4). It was found that KMnO4 showed a low reactivity towards MeP
The nature of the injury and recovery of nitrate uptake (net uptake) from NaCl stress in young barley (Hordeum vulgare L, var CM 72) seedlings was investigated. Nitrate uptake was inhibited rapidly by NaCl, within 1 minute after exposure to

The formation of O6-methyldeoxyguanosine (O6-MedGuo) was determined by an immuno-slot-blot assay in DNA of various tissues of F344 rats exposed to N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) in the drinking water at 400 ppm for 2 weeks. Although the pyloric region of the glandular
Parabens and sorbic acid are commonly used as food preservatives due to their antimicrobial effect. However, their use in foods for infants and young children is not permitted in the European Union. Previous studies found these compounds in some gel-filled
