2,4,6-Tribromoaniline. Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). 2,4,6-Tribromoaniline is a brominated derivative of aniline with the formula C 6 H 4 Br 3 N. It is used in organic synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and fire-extinguishing agents.
Infobox references. 2,4,6-Tribromoanisole (TBA) is a chemical compound that is a brominated derivative of anisole. It is one of the chemicals responsible for cork taint. [2] Tribromoanisole is a fungal metabolite of 2,4,6-tribromophenol, which is used as a fungicide. It can be found in minute traces on packaging materials stored in the presence ...
Nitrifying bacteria are chemolithotrophic organisms that include species of genera such as Nitrosomonas, Nitrosococcus, Nitrobacter, Nitrospina, Nitrospira and Nitrococcus. These bacteria get their energy from the oxidation of inorganic nitrogen compounds. [1] Types include ammonia-oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and nitrite-oxidizing bacteria (NOB ...
Bacterial microcompartment. The structure of the Bacterial Microcompartment shell. The first structure of a BMC shell, determined by X-ray crystallography and cryo-electron microscopy, [1] contains representatives of each of the shell protein types: BMC-P, BMC-H and BMC-T, in both its trimer (upper right) and dimer of trimer (lower right), forms.
The red-coloured bacterium Deinococcus radiodurans can resist 1.5 million rads of gamma radiation, about 3,000 times the amount that would kill a human. The bacteria was first isolated from cans of meat that were subjected to supposedly sterilising doses of radiation in the megarad range.
Bacteria function and reproduce as individual cells, but they can often aggregate in multicellular colonies. [54] Some species such as myxobacteria can aggregate into complex swarming structures, operating as multicellular groups as part of their life cycle , [ 55 ] or form clusters in bacterial colonies such as E.coli .
Brominating aniline with elemental bromine gives 2,4,6-tribromoaniline. This is then diazotized, then reacted with ethanol to replace the diazonium group with hydrogen, forming 1,3,5-tribromobenzene. [3] It has also been prepared by these methods: [3] replacement of the amino group of 3,5-dibromoaniline with bromine
Staphylococcus aureus. Colorized scanning electron micrograph of a human neutrophil ingesting MRSA. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a group of gram-positive bacteria that are genetically distinct from other strains of Staphylococcus aureus. MRSA is responsible for several difficult-to-treat infections in humans.
