Potassium permanganate, a strong oxidizing agent, is used to bleach organic compound such as melanin in analytical procedures such as immunostaining protocols and Feulgen-DNA microdensitometry.
We posit that the same mononuclear phagocytes (MP) that serve as target cells and vehicles for a host of microbial infections can be used to improve diagnostics and drug delivery. We also theorize that physical and biological processes such as
In this study, the impacts of three preoxidation strategies [i.e., using potassium permanganate (KMnO(4)), chlorine dioxide (ClO(2)), or hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))] before preformed monochloramine (NH(2)Cl) addition on the formation and speciation of iodinated trihalomethanes (I-THMs) were evaluated at the Br(-)/I(-)
To evaluate a novel method to quantify the density of nerve fibers innervating sweat glands in healthy control and diabetic subjects, to compare the results to an unbiased stereologic technique, and to identify the relationship to standardized physical examination and

Open complex formation precedes initiation of transcription by RNA polymerases. In the analysis of transcription initiation from eukaryotic class II promoters, we have used promoter DNA structures that represent intermediates in open complex formation. We describe the preparation and isolation
We have explored the chemiluminescence response of amino acids and related compounds (including the tripeptide glutathione, and disulfides: cystine, homocystine and glutathione disulfide) with several new adaptations of the permanganate and tris(2,2'-bipyridine)ruthenium(III) ([Ru(bipy)(3)](3+)) reagents and a recently developed colloidal manganese(IV)
Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
