Furfural is used to make other furan derivatives, such as furoic acid, via oxidation, [30] and furan itself via palladium catalyzed vapor phase decarbonylation. [ 4 ] There is a good market for value added chemicals that can be obtained from furfural.
Plants can cause reactions ranging from laminitis (found in horses bedded on shavings from black walnut trees), anemia, kidney disease and kidney failure (from eating the wilted leaves of red maples), to cyanide poisoning (from the ingestion of plant matter from members of the genus Prunus) and other symptoms.
Furan fatty acids in animals are based on the uptake and accumulation of furan fatty acids from plant constituents. [6] In human blood, the total furan fatty acid content is about 50 ng/ml. Per day, a person separates between 0.5 and 3 mg of urofuran acids - the metabolic product of the furans acids.
Methoxymethylfurfural (MMF or 5-methoxymethylfuran-2-carbaldehyde) is an organic compound derived from dehydration of sugars and subsequent etherification with methanol. [1] This colorless liquid is soluble in a wide range of solvents including lower alcohols.
Mohler, John R., Dourine of horses – its cause and suppression (1911) Covering sickness, or dourine (French, from the Arabic darina, meaning mangy (said of a female camel), feminine of darin, meaning dirty), [1] is a disease of horses and other members of the family Equidae.
Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), also known as 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural, is an organic compound formed by the dehydration of reducing sugars. [4] [5] It is a white low-melting solid (although commercial samples are often yellow) which is highly soluble in both water and organic solvents.
An adult horse has an average rate of respiration at rest of 12 to 24 breaths per minute. [3] Young foals have higher resting respiratory rates than adult horses, usually 36 to 40 breaths per minute. [3] Heat and humidity can raise the respiration rate considerably, especially if the horse has a dark coat and is in the sun.
A horse may be returned to work if symptoms have ceased and is no longer on NSAIDs or other prescribed drugs related to treatment of ER, this can otherwise can hide signs of another bout of ER. If NSAIDs or other treatment drugs are needed to keep the horse comfortable, or if the horse is reluctant to continue work, the animal is not yet ready ...
