Some plant secondary metabolites are classified as phytoanticipins. When plant tissue in
which they are present is disrupted, the phytoanticipins are bio-activated by the action of β …

Thioureas and their derivatives are organosulfur compounds having excellent biological and
non-biological applications. These compounds contain S-and N-, which are nucleophilic …

Cyanide causes intracellular hypoxia by reversibly binding to mitochondrial cytochrome
oxidase a 3. Signs and symptoms of cyanide poisoning usually occur less than 1 minute …

Disability adjusted life year (DALY) has been widely used since 1990s for evaluating global
and/or regional burden of diseases. As many environmental pollutants are hazardous to …

Objective: The aim of this systematic review was to identify isolated acute cyanide poison
cases and to identify reported signs, symptoms, and laboratory findings. Methods: We …

Since mid-1970s, the proton-centric proposal of 'chemiosmosis' became the acclaimed
explanation for aerobic respiration. Recently, significant theoretical and experimental …

Simultaneous poisoning by carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen cyanide is the major
cause of mortality in fire gas accidents. Here, we report on the invention of an injectable …

Cyanide-resistant non-phosphorylating respiration is known in mitochondria from plants,
fungi, and microorganisms but is absent in mammals. It results from the activity of an …

A fluorescence “turn-off” probe has been designed and successfully applied to detect
cyanide (CN–) based on a Michael-type nucleophilic addition reaction and intramolecular …

Sequential recognition of Cu2+ and CN− by a new benzimidazole-containing quinazoline
based probe (1) has been achieved. Probe 1 exhibits highly selective and sensitive …
