Pentaerythrityl tetranitrate (PETN) is an established drug in the treatment of coronary heart disease and heart failure. It is assumed, that the vasodilative and vasoprotective effects of PETN also have a positive impact on pregnant patients with impaired placental perfusion and studies evaluating the effect of PETN in risk pregnancies have been carried out. In the context of these clinical trials, measuring of serum levels of PETN and its metabolites pentaerythrityl trinitrate (PETriN), pentaerythrityl dinitrate (PEDN), pentaerythrityl mononitrate (PEMN) and pentaerythritol (PE) were required.

To investigate the effect of doping defects on properties of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN), the "perfect" and doping defective crystal models of PETN containing pentaerythritol (PE), pentaerythritol mononitrate (PEMonoN), pentaerythritol dinitrate (PEDiN), and pentaerythritol trinitrate (PETRIN) were established, respectively. Molecular dynamics (MD) method was applied to perform simulations, and sensitivity, detonation performance, and mechanical properties were calculated and compared. The results indicate that compared with PETN (1 1 0) supercell model, the interaction energy of trigger bond and cohesive energy density of the doped defect models decreased by 2.

The detection of explosives is of great importance, as is the need for sensitive, reliable techniques that require little or no sample preparation and short run times for high throughput analysis. In this work, a novel ionisation source is presented based on a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD). This not only affects desorption and ionisation but also forms an ionic wind, providing mass transportation of ions towards the mass spectrometer.

Ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy (UVRR) is being developed for standoff trace explosives detection. To accomplish this, it is important to develop a deep understanding of the accompanying UV excited photochemistry of explosives, as well as the impact of reactions on the resulting photoproducts. In the work here we used 229 nm excited UVRR spectroscopy to monitor the photochemistry of pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) in acetonitrile.

The present research investigates the identification of amino acid sequences that selectively bind to a pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) explosive surrogate. Through the use of a phage display technique and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA), a peptide library was tested against pentaerythritol trinitrate hemisuccinate (PETNH), a surrogate of PETN, to screen for those with amino acids having affinity toward the explosive. The results suggest that the library contains peptides selective to PETNH.
