Spectrophotometric determination of cyanide in aqueous samples after its conversion to thiocyanate and complexation to ferric-thiocyanate [PDF]
Journal of Applied Research in Water and Wastewater, 2019 A simple spectrophotometric method is developed for the determination of traces of cyanide ion in water samples. Toxic cyanide was reacted with sulfur (S8) dissolved in acetone and converted to non-toxic thiocyanate which is more stable than cyanide also.

Bacterial Cheaters Evade Punishment by Cyanide
iScience, 2019 Summary: In all domains of life, mechanisms exist that protect cooperating groups from exploitation by cheaters. Recent observations with the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa have suggested a paradigmatic cheater control mechanism in which cooperator ...

Identification of specific metabolic pathways as druggable targets regulating the sensitivity to cyanide poisoning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Cyanide is a potent toxic agent, and the few available antidotes are not amenable to rapid deployment in mass exposures. As a result, there are ongoing efforts to exploit different animal models to identify novel countermeasures.

Comparison of C═C bond hydrogenation in C-4 unsaturated nitriles over Pt/alumina [PDF]
, 2016 The hydrogenation of allyl cyanide (but-1-ene-4-nitrile, AC), trans- and cis-crotononitrile (E- and Z-but-2-ene nitrile, TCN and CCN), and methacrylonitrile (2-cyano-1-propene, MCN) were studied, both singly and competitively, over a Pt/alumina catalyst ...

The generation of latent-ion-transport capacity [PDF]
, 1959 Of the various hypotheses designed to explain the movement of ions from the environment into the plant cell, the most attractive suggests that ions traverse cell membranes in combination with an endogenously produced carrier substance.(1,2) The ...
