Decomposition of NO on modified zeolites, crystalline titanosilicalites, and related amorphous systems is studied by the catalytic and spectroscopic methods. Zinc-containing HZSM-5 zeolites and titanosilicalites with moderate Ti/Si ratios are shown to exhibit a better catalytic performance in NO decomposition as compared with conventionally used Cu/HZSM-5 zeolites and amorphous Cu-containing catalysts. Dehydroxylation of the HZSM-5 zeolite by calcination at 1120 K results in an enhancement of the NO conversion. The mechanism of the reaction and the role of coordinatively unsaturated cations and Lewis acid sites in NO decomposition are discussed on the basis of the spectroscopic data.

Nitrous oxide (NO) intoxication is a common consequence of its inhalation with recreational purpose, which is prevalent among young people. The most severe result of such an entertainment is development of myelopolyneuropathy with polyneuropathy as the most common presentation, which may start acutely or subacutely. The underlying cause of neurological complications of NO intoxication is deficit of B vitamin, however its laboratory confirmation may be challenging.

There are three components to every environmental protection system: monitoring, estimation, and control. One of the main toxic gases with considerable effects on human health is NO, which is released into the atmosphere by industrial activities and the transportation network. In the present research, a NO sensor is designed based on FeO piperidine-4-sulfonic acid grafted onto a reduced graphene oxide FeO@rGO-N-(piperidine-4-SOH) nanocomposite, due to the highly efficient detection of pollution in the air.

Rationale: The analysis of natural abundance isotopes in biogenic NO molecules provides valuable insights into the nature of their precursors and their role in biogeochemical cycles. However, current methodologies (for example, the isotopocule map approach) face limitations, as they only enable the estimation of combined contributions from multiple processes at once rather than discriminating individual sources. This study aimed to overcome this challenge by developing a novel methodology for the partitioning of NO sources in soil, combining natural abundance isotopes and the use of a N tracer (N Gas Flux method) in parallel incubations.

Background: Non-ketotic hyperglycinemia (NKH) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by defects in the glycine cleavage system, leading to elevated glycine levels in the central nervous system. NKH manifests in various forms, with the neonatal type being the most severe and often associated with high mortality and significant neurological impairment. This case report highlights the successful uses of desflurane and nitrous oxide for anesthetic management in a patient with NKH.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFNitrous oxide (NO) is generally used in the medical and food industries. However, it is sometimes illegally misused by young adults as a recreational drug. In either of these uses, functional vitamin B12 deficiency results in neurological implications, such as peripheral neuropathy and subacute combined degeneration (SACD).
