NOBS is the main bleach activator used in the U.S.A. and Japan. [4] Compared to TAED, which is the predominant bleach activator used in Europe, NOBS is efficient at much lower temperatures. At 20 °C NOBS is 100 times more soluble than TAED in water. [5]
The overall reaction of TAED (1) with 2 equivalents of hydrogen peroxide gives diacetylethylenediamine (2) and 2 equivalents of peracetic acid (3): Only the perhydroxyl anion, and not the hydrogen peroxide molecule, reacts with the bleach activator. [4]
Powdered TAED is stabilized by granulation with the aid of the sodium salt of carboxymethylcellulose (Na-CMC), [10] which are sometimes additionally coated blue or green. . Despite the relatively low solubility of TAED in cool water, (1 g/L at 20 °C), the granulate dissolves rapidly in the washing l
Sirtuin-activating compounds (STAC) are chemical compounds having an effect on sirtuins, a group of enzymes that use NAD+ to remove acetyl groups from proteins. They are caloric restriction mimetic compounds that may be helpful in treating various aging -related diseases.
The energy of activation [1] specifies the amount of free energy the reactants must possess (in addition to their rest energy) in order to initiate their conversion into corresponding products—that is, in order to reach the transition state for the reaction. The energy needed for activation can be quite small, and often it is provided by the ...
Aspartate carbamoyltransferase (also known as aspartate transcarbamoylase or ATCase) catalyzes the first step in the pyrimidine biosynthetic pathway (EC 2.1.3.2). [1]In E. coli, the enzyme is a multi-subunit protein complex composed of 12 subunits (300 kDa in total). [2]
By inhibiting PAI-1, it increases activity of the enzymes tissue plasminogen activator and urokinase, which are involved in the blood clotting cascade. It has been researched for conditions such as hepatic steatosis and diabetic nephropathy, and while it has not been developed for medical use, it is widely used in scientific research. [1] [2 ...
Signal transducer and activator of transcription 5 (STAT5) refers to two highly related proteins, STAT5A and STAT5B, which are part of the seven-membered STAT family of proteins. Though STAT5A and STAT5B are encoded by separate genes , the proteins are 90% identical at the amino acid level. [ 1 ]
