Reduction of the formaldehyde content in leathers treated with formaldehyde resins by means of plant polyphenols [PDF]
, 2017 Formaldehyde has applications in many industrial processes, including synthesis of resins and syntans to be used in the retanning process of leather. When resins are employed, they can hydrolyse, releasing formaldehyde.

Mutations in pathways depending on BRCA1 and BRCA2 may increase cancer risks from an environmental carcinogen [PDF]
, 2011 Recently, the President’s Cancer Panel [2008-2009] protested that preventive action is not taken when uncertainty exists about potential harm from a chemical, because the US regulatory approach demands that a hazard be incontrovertibly ...

Equations of motion method: Excitation energies and intensities in formaldehyde [PDF]
, 1974 We have used the equations of motion method to study the excitation energies and intensities of electronic transitions in formaldehyde. The calculated excitation energies and oscillator strengths agree well with experiment and suggest explanations for ...

Detection of Formaldehyde Towards the Extreme Carbon Star IRC+10216
, 2004 We report the detection of H2CO (formaldehyde) around the carbon-rich AGB star, IRC+10216. We find a fractional abundance with respect to molecular hydrogen of x(H2CO)= (1.3 {+1.5}{-0.8}) x 10^{-8}.

Visualization of the homogeneous charge compression ignition/controlled autoignition combustion process using two-dimensional planar laser-induced fluorescence imaging of formaldehyde [PDF]
, 2003 The paper reports an investigation into the HCCI/CAI combustion process using the two-dimensional PLIF technique. The PLIF of formaldehyde formed during the low-temperature reactions of HCCI/CAI combustion was exciting by a tunable dye laser at 355nm ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The enzyme 5‐lipoxygenase (5‐LOX) catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes (LTs) involved in inflammatory pathophysiology. After cellular stimulation, 5‐LOX translocates to the nucleus, interacting with the 5‐LOX‐activating protein (FLAP) to form LTA4 from arachidonic acid (AA).
