A Review of the Surface Modification of Cellulose and Nanocellulose Using Aliphatic and Aromatic Mono- and Di-Isocyanates

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Nanocellulose has been subjected to a wide range of chemical modifications towards increasing its potential in certain fields of interest. These modifications either modulated the chemistry of the nanocellulose itself or introduced certain functional ...

First detection of C2H5NCO in the ISM and search of other isocyanates towards the G+0.693-0.027 molecular cloud [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics, 2021
Context. Little is known about the chemistry of isocyanates (compounds with the functional group R-N=C=O) in the interstellar medium (ISM), as only four of them have been detected so far: isocyanate radical (NCO), isocyanic acid (HNCO), N-protonated ...

Synthesis, Molecular Docking, and Bioactivity Study of Novel Hybrid Benzimidazole Urea Derivatives: A Promising α-Amylase and α-Glucosidase Inhibitor Candidate with Antioxidant Activity

open access: yesPharmaceutics, 2023
A novel series of benzimidazole ureas 3a–h were elaborated using 2-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl) aniline 1 and the appropriate isocyanates 2a–h. The antioxidant and possible antidiabetic activities of the target benzimidazole-ureas 3a–h were evaluated.

Epigenetic Markers Are Associated With Differences in Isocyanate Biomarker Levels in Exposed Spray-Painters

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Isocyanates are respiratory and skin sensitizers that are one of the main causes of occupational asthma globally. Genetic and epigenetic markers are associated with isocyanate-induced asthma and, before asthma develops, we have shown that genetic ...

Increase of Exhaled Nitric Oxide (eNO) after Methylene Diphenyl Diisocyanate (MDI) Exposure in Isocyanate Workers with Bronchial Hyperresponsiveness

open access: yesAllergology International, 2005
Background: : Isocyanates have become one of the most important causes of occupational asthma in industrialized countries. Increased exhaled nitric oxide (eNO) levels have been shown to be associated with allergic airway inflammation.
