1.SymbolAsA highly poisonous metallic element having several allotropic forms of which the brittle, crystalline gray metallic form is the most common. The less stable yellow allotrope has a molecular structure, As4. Arsenic and its compounds are used in insecticides, weed killers, semiconductor dopan...

Spraying of Agent Blue on 100,000 ha of mangrove forests and about 300,000 ha of rice paddies just before rice harvest time resulted in the destruction of the standing crop and rendered the land contaminated with arsenic (As). Six Rainbow herbicides, commonly called Agent Orange, Agent Green...
Therefore, in the current study, FIS was administered as a protective agent to attenuate the arsenic-induced reprotoxicity in male rats. Arsenic administration adversely affected the antioxidant enzymes of rats by decreasing the activity of CAT, SOD, GPx, GSR, and GSH level. CAT is involved in...
Orpiment, As2S3, deep orange crystals to over 1 cm in a small group Chemical Properties Arsenic trisulfide is a noncombustible, odorless, yellow or orange powder or red needles (changes to a different “red” form @ 170 C). Physical properties ...
Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is characterized by hyperexpression and/or gain-of-function mutations of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), resulting in an elevated overall kinase activity. Gefitinib is remarkably effective in patients with the L858R or ΔE746-A750-mutated of EGFR....
During the Vietnam War, the United States used a mixture of cacodylic acid (dimethylarsenic acid, DMA) and sodium cacodylate as one of the six Rainbow herbicides (specifically, Agent Blue, along with the other five: Agent Orange, Agent Green, Agent Pink, Agent Purple and Agent White) and ...
Arsenic disulfide is also known as ruby arsenic because it is a reddish-orange powder. It is used as a depilatory agent, a paint pigment, and a rat poison and to make red glass and fireworks. ARSENIC (II) SULFIDE Preparation Products And Raw materials ...
The NaOH 0.1 M solution achieved the highest arsenic removal rate from saturated media; however, it was aggressive to the adsorbent structure, as reflected in high TOC values found in the eluate, higher iron leaching from the adsorbent, and degradation of cork cellular structure. The Elovich ...
