A freshwater aquatic food web. The blue arrows show a complete food chain (algae → daphnia → gizzard shad → largemouth bass → great blue heron). A food web is the natural interconnection of food chains and a graphical representation of what-eats-what in an ecological community.
Oleylamine is an organic compound with a molecular formula C 18 H 35 NH 2. [1] It is an unsaturated fatty amine related to the fatty acid oleic acid . The pure compound is a clear and colorless liquid.
Fatty amines are commonly prepared from fatty acids; which are themselves obtained from natural sources, typically seed-oils.The overall reaction is sometimes referred to as the Nitrile Process [3] and begins with a reaction between the fatty acid and ammonia at high temperature (>250 °C) and in the presence of a metal oxide catalyst (e.g., alumina or zinc oxide) to give the fatty nitrile.
A community matrix model is a type of interaction web that uses differential equations to describe every link in the topological web. Using Lotka–Volterra equations, that describe predator-prey interactions, and food web energetics data such as biomass and feeding rate, the strength of interactions between groups is calculated.

Examples are N‑tert‑butylhydroxylamine or the glycosidic bond in calicheamicin. N,O‑Dimethylhydroxylamine is a precursor to Weinreb amides. Similarly to amines, one can distinguish hydroxylamines by their degree of substitution: primary, secondary and tertiary.
New research links omega-6 fatty acids, commonly found in seed oils, and colon cancer growth. But there’s more to the story—and study if you read it carefully.
The original toilet cleaner was invented by Harry Pickup (hence the origin of the name Harpic [2]), who was based in Roscoe Street, Scarborough, in North Yorkshire.He also invented Oxypic, which was a sealant used in cast iron heating systems, and patented the Lock & Lift circular manhole covers, which were used initially by the British Military.
