The study was conducted as a part of research work "Biochemical mechanisms of the development of dismetabolic processes under the influence of chemical environmental factors". The purpose of the present work was to study the effects produced by sodium salts of carboxymethylates of oxyethylated isononylphenols on the state of the microsomal monooxygenase system of hepatocyte detoxification and on the conjugation reaction in conditions of a subacute experiment and to reveal a potential danger for homoitherms and human beings. The object of the study were the white rats of WAG population. The effects produced by sodium salts of carboxymethylates of oxyethylated isononylphenols of such brands as AFS 9-4 КМ, AFS 9-6 КМ, AFS 9-10 КМ on the state of the microsomal monooxygenase system of hepatocyte detoxification and on the conjugation reaction in conditions of a subacute experiment were studied. It was set that studied compounds during their subacute influence in a toxicological experiment stimulated the hydroxyling microsomal monooxygenase system of hepatocytes and inhibited reactions of the formation of glucuronid and glutathione conjugations against a background of more active processes of the formation of acetyl conjugation, higher levels in the content of CoA-SH, acetyl-CoA and ketone bodies.

Evaporation or freezing of water-rich fluids with dilute concentrations of dissolved salts can produce brines, as observed in closed basins on Earth and detected by remote sensing on icy bodies in the outer Solar System. The mineralogical evolution of these brines is well understood in regard to terrestrial environments, but poorly constrained for extraterrestrial systems owing to a lack of direct sampling. Here we report the occurrence of salt minerals in samples of the asteroid (101955) Bennu returned by the OSIRIS-REx mission.

Despite extensive research on the use of salts to enhance micellar growth, numerous questions remain regarding the impact of ionic exchange and molecular structure on charge neutralization. This study looks into how certain cations (Na, Ca, and Mg) affect the structure of a cocamidopropyl betaine CAPB and sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate SDBS surfactant mixture, aiming toward applications in targeted delivery systems. The mixture consists of a zwitterionic surfactant, cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), and an anionic surfactant, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate (SDBS), combined in varying molar ratios at a total concentration of 200 mM.

Unlabelled: Low-sodium salt has a protective effect on BMD and also reduces the risk of osteopenia due to elevated blood glucose. This provides a direct and effective way to improve bone health in patients with hyperglycemia.
Objective: There is no consensus on the relationship between salt type and bone mineral density (BMD).

Biodiesel presents a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, yet traditional homogeneous catalysts like sodium and potassium hydroxide face challenges with separation and reuse. Calcium oxide (CaO) is an effective heterogeneous catalyst for biodiesel production, but its chemical instability under reaction conditions restricts its long-term performance. This study introduces MOF-mediated synthesis (MOFMS) of heterogeneous catalysts, specifically CaO@ZnO and ZnO@CaO nanocomposites, from inexpensive and non-toxic metal salts and linkers in water.

Experiments were conducted in controlled laboratory conditions to determine the size-resolved CCN (Cloud Condensation Nuclei) activity of sub micrometer-sized aerosols containing nuclear fission products (CsI and CsOH) and abundant ambient inorganic aerosols ammonium sulphates ((NH)SO), ammonium chloride (NHCl), sodium nitrate (NaNO), and sodium chloride (NaCl). The presence of these atmospheric-relevant compounds internally mixed with fission product compounds has the potential to affect the capacity of ambient particulates of aerosols to absorb water and function as CCN. Once in the atmosphere, the dynamics of airborne radionuclides and subsequently their fate gets affected by dry and wet deposition processes.
