Application

  • Removal of GenX by APTES functionalized diepoxyoctane cross-linked chitosan beads: Cross-linked and aminated chitosan beads were synthesized using 1,2:7,8-diepoxyoctane and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane. These beads were studied for their efficiency in removing GenX, a problematic environmental pollutant, demonstrating a potential application in water treatment technologies (M Vakili, F Gholami, HM Zwain, W Wang… - Journal of …, 2023 - Elsevier).

The carcinogenicity of epoxide compounds has been attributed to covalent binding to DNA. Whereas monoepoxides form only monoadducts, diepoxides can form both monoadducts and interstrand cross-links. The latter are believed to be the more significant cytotoxic lesions as diepoxides are

The mutation e1662 is an allele of the Caenorhabditis elegans unc-54 gene induced with the difunctional alkylating agent 1,2,7,8-diepoxyoctane. unc-54 encodes the major myosin heavy chain isozyme of body wall muscle cells. Filter-transfer hybridization and DNA sequence analysis show that

Diepoxyalkanes form interstrand cross-links in DNA oligomers preferentially at 5'-GNC sites. We have examined cross-linking by 1,2,3,4-diepoxybutane (DEB) and 1,2,7,8-diepoxyoctane (DEO) within a fragment of the 5S RNA gene of Xenopus borealis in both the free and nucleosomal states. Sites

The sensitivity responses of seven pso mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae towards the mutagens N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA), 1,2:7,8-diepoxyoctane (DEO), and 8-hydroxyquinoline (8HQ) further substantiated their allocation into two distinct groups: genes PSO1 (allelic to REV3), PSO2 (SNM1), PSO4 (PRP19), and PSO5 (RAD16)

Hyaluronic acid (hyaluronan, HA) has many medical applications as a biomaterial. To enhance its biostability, a novel hydrogel of cross-linked hyaluronic acid was prepared using a double cross-linking process, which involves building cross-linkages between hydroxyl group pairs and carboxyl group
