Ruminal methane (CH(4)) production results in the loss of up to 12% of gross energy intake and contributes nearly 20% of the United States' annual emission of this greenhouse gas. We report the effects of select nitrocompounds on ruminal fermentation

We report the effects of 2-nitro-1-propanol (2NPOH), 2-nitroethanol (2NEOH), and nitroethane (NE) on growth and survivability of Listeria monocytogenes. In all cases, inhibition was greatest with 2NPOH and least with NE. For example, specific growth rates of L. monocytogenes strain

The efficacy of therapeutic cross-linking of the cornea using riboflavin photochemistry (commonly abbreviated as CXL) has caused its use to become widespread. Because there are known chemical agents that cross-link collagenous tissues, it may be possible to cross-link tissue pharmacologically.
