Synopsis A high pressure liquid chromatographic method is described for the determination of thioglycolic acid in hair waving fluids and depilatories. Prior to chromatography the acid is converted into a yellow-coloured nitrobenzooxadioazole (NBD) derivative to permit HPLC detection at 464 nm. Optimum derivatization conditions could be obtained when 0.01% aqueous solutions of thioglycolic acid were heated with NBD-C1 at pH 7. Hair waving fluids and depilatories are simply diluted with an aqueous buffer of pH 7 and, if necessary, clarified and filtered, before the derivatization procedure. To the mixture an internal standard Sunset Yellow FCF, Colour Index nr. 15985, is added before performing ion-pair reverse phase HPLC. A reverse phase C18 column is used. The mobile phase is aqueous methanol, to which the counter ion, tetrabutyl-ammonium phosphate, is added. Recoveries ranged from 97.8 to 100.7%. The proposed method permits a resolution of other possible mercaptocompounds such as thiolactic acid and thioglycerol. Sixty market samples of cold wave fluids and depilatories have been analysed by the proposed method, and the results compared with data obtained by iodometric titration.

Metal polyphenolic networks (MPNs) are becoming more and more attractive for nontoxic hair dyeing, but their coloring effect is not satisfactory because of the limited interfacial deposition and the absence of internal deposition. Moreover, there is a lack of understanding of the driving factors of the interfacial deposition of MPNs on hair. Herein, we develop a simple yet efficient strategy that transforms disulfide bonds of the hair into thiol groups by thioglycolic acid (TGA) to highly enhance the coloring effect of MPNs at a low temperature.

Detrimental effects of terminal heat stress could be mitigated by exogenous application of synthetic compounds by preserving cell membrane integrity and protecting against oxidative damage. A field experiment was conducted to test the application of seven synthetic compounds on wheat growth traits: (1) thiourea (20 mM and 40mM); (2) potassium nitrate (1% and 2%); (3) sodium nitroprusside (400 μg mL-1 and 800μg mL-1 ); (4) dithiothreitol (25 ppm and 50ppm); (5) salicylic acid (100 ppm and 200ppm); (6) thioglycolic acid (200 ppm and 500ppm); and (7) putrescine (4 mM and 6mM). These compounds were applied at the anthesis and grain-filling stages to enhance physio-biochemical traits and yield attributes of wheat (Triticum aestivum ) cvs GW-11 and GW-496 under terminal heat stress.

The immune system is essential for the defense against infections and is critically implicated in various disorders, including immunodeficiency, autoimmunity, inflammation and cancer. The current study includes a new design of palmitoylated derivatives of thioglycolic acids (PTGAs) capable of triggering innate immune responses. The new series were accessible through a three-step synthetic route, including N-palmitoylation, Claisen-Schmidt condensation and thia-Michael addition.

Due to its simple process and adaptability to large-area deposition, chemical bath deposition (CBD) is one of the preparation methods for the SnO layer in highly efficient "n-i-p" structured perovskite solar cells (PSCs). However, the residual thioglycolic acid (TGA) on the CBD-SnO surface affects the stability of PSCs and the carrier transport at the CBD-SnO/perovskite interface, hindering the further development of this method. This work demonstrates a method for the reutilization of surface groups to construct molecular bridges.
