Moderate Ethanol Consumption by the Pregnant Guinea Pig Increases Ethanol Preference in Offspring
Ethanol teratogenicity involving the developing brain is the leading preventable cause of mental deficiency in the Western world. Chronic prenatal ethanol exposure (CPEE) may be a risk factor for ethanol abuse and altered responsiveness to nicotine in postnatal life. Previous studies in our …

Co-oxidation in supercritical water : methylphosphonic acid-ethanol and ammonia-ethanol model systems
Supercritical water (SCW) is an effective solvent for the destruction of organic compounds by oxidation. Because both organics and oxygen have high solubility in water above its critical point (To = 374 °C (647 K), Pc = 221 bar), they can be reacted together in a single phase which avoids mass …

Identification and Characterization of Ethanol Responsive Genes in Acute Ethanol Behaviors in Caenorhabditis elegans
… factors. Acute behavioral responses to ethanol have predictive value for determining an individual’s long-term susceptibility to alcohol abuse and dependence. These behavioral responses are strongly influenced by genetics. Here, we have explored the role of genetic influences on acute …

Ethanol and Fluorinated Ethanol Decomposition on Single Crystal Platinum Surfaces: Structure Sensitivity and Electronic Effects
… effect on the surface reaction mechanism, ethanol and fluorinated ethanol decomposition have also been studied on clean and oxygen precovered (2 x 1)Pt(110) surface. The reaction mechanism is very similar on clean (2 x 1)Pt(110) as on Pt(331), except the ethanol C-C bond scission is …

ETHANOL REGULATION OF GLUCOCORTICOID RESPONSIVE GENES
… including psychostimulants and opioids. Acute ethanol activates the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal (HPA) axis causing the release of adrenal glucocorticoid hormones, but following chronic ethanol the HPA axis is dysregulated in both humans and rodents. Thus, there is growing evidence that …

CBD & Ethanol Disrupt Early Embryonic Development
… and yolk sac edema. Because CBD required a 0.05% ethanol vehicle to dissolve into the embryo water, the experimental outcomes involving CBD were also influenced by ethanol exposure. Furthermore, a large variance in tyrosine hydroxylase expression in diencephalic dopaminergic nuclei was observed …

The fractionation of dextran using ethanol
… have been made. Fractional precipitation with ethanol has to be performec at least twice to obtain clinical dextran, which is a polyglucose, from an aqueous solution of dextran having a broad molecular weight distribution. In the first stage the high molecular weight dextrans precipitate out …

The Effect of Ethanol on Bone Histomorphology
<p>The effect of ethanol on bone histomorphology was studied using an isocaloric liquid pair feeding system to administer equal amounts of essential vitamins and nutrients to control and ethanol animals.</p> <p>A bone remodeling sequence was induced in the lower right mandible by removal of the …

An Assessment of United States Ethanol Policy
… and mandates for the production and use of ethanol under the rationale of reducing U.S. dependence on foreign sources of oil while purporting to economically benefit the American economy and strengthening American security. While there has been much discussion about the economic benefits of …

Controlling bacterial contaminants in sugarcane ethanol fermentations
Bioethanol from sugarcane has a lower carbon footprint than petroleum based fuels but the industry is plagued by various economic pressures, including product loss due to contamination of fermentation facilities. Lactobacillus species and other lactic acid producing bacteria from the feedstock and …

Engineering Saccharomyces cerevisiae for cellulosic ethanol production
… are two long-existing obstacles for cellulosic ethanol production in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The first one is inefficient xylose utilization and the second one is sequential fermentation of glucose and xylose in engineered Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This study mainly focused on solving these …

Membrane Processing of Ethanol -Extracted Corn Oil
… potentially high-value fractions soluble in ethanol, in addition to the corn oil. Investigation of the nature and extent of membrane fouling has also been performed with the use of electron scanning microscopy with field-emission gun (ESEM-FEG) and matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization …

Granular Starch Hydrolysis for Fuel Ethanol Production
… pilot plant. Soft endosperm resulted in higher ethanol concentrations (at 72 hr) compared to ground corn or hard endosperm. Addition of urea increased ethanol concentrations (at 72 hr) for soft and hard endosperm. The effect of protease addition on increasing ethanol concentrations and …

Ethanol inhibition of continuous anaerobic yeast growth
… this work, the inhibitory effects of the product ethanol on the yeast Saccharomy cescerevisiae ATCC 4126 have been studied during the conversion of the substrate glucose. Continuous culture techniques under anaerobic conditions (the medium was not deaerated) were used where high concentrations of …

Modeling of Ethanol Metabolism and Transdermal Transport
… traffic deaths over the past decade. Transdermal ethanol detection is a promising method that could prevent drunk driving if integrated into an ignition interlock system; potentially preventing 90 million drunk driving trips a year in the US. However, experimental data from previous research has …

Studies of Cellulosic Ethanol Production from Lignocellulose
… use of fossil fuels. Utilizing non-petroleum ethanol in the transportation sector reduces the dependence on oil, and allows for cleaner burning of gasoline. Lignocellulose materials are structurally composed of five types of polymeric sugars, glucan, galactan, mannan, arabinan, and xylan. NREL …
