On the Carbon Dioxide Capture by Quaternary Ammonium-Based and Phosphonium-Based Ionic Liquids. The Role of Steric Hindrances and Transition States [PDF]
Global warming is seen as a drastic environmental problem nowadays. Carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentration in the Earth's atmosphere is linked to the average temperature on the surface of the planet. Carbon capture and storage is an important technological endeavor aiming to improve the ecology.

The entry of diphtheria toxin into the mammalian cell cytoplasm: evidence for lysosomal involvement [PDF]
Lysosomotropic amines, such as ammonium chloride, are known to protect cells from the cytotoxic effects of diphtheria toxin. These drugs are believed to inhibit the transport of the toxin from a receptor at the cell exterior into the cytoplasm where a ...
