1,1,1-Trichloroethane is a chlorinated hydrocarbon which is manufactured from vinyl chloride or vinylidene chloride by chlorination. The world production was approximately 680 000 tonnes in 1988. It is a colourless, ...

In this monograph, the function and histophysiology of the immune system are reviewed, and the information necessary to understand and interpret the pathological changes caused by immunotoxic insults is provided. Emphasis ...

Trichlorfon is a colourless crystalline powder that is stable at room temperature. It is slowly hydrolysed in acid media; the half-life is 526 days at pH 1-5 and 20°C. In alkaline media, at pH 8 and 37.5 °C, it hydrolyses ...

Aldicarb has a slight sulfur smell. It has a melting point of 100 °C and a specific gravity of 1.195 at 25 °C. it is soluble in water, sensitive to heat, and relatively unstable. Analytical methods for aldicarb include ...

Isobenzan is a whitish to light-brown crystalline powder, with a mild chemical odour. It is relatively stable to acids, but liable to dehydrochlorination under strongly alkaline conditions. Solubility in organic solvents: ...

Thallium is a soft and malleable heavy metal with a bluish-white colour. Its relative molecular mass is 204.38. Its most important compound is the colourless, odourless and tasteless thallium(l) sulfate, previously used ...

Methomyl is a white crystalline solid with a melting point of 77 °C. It is soluble in water and in many organic solvents. It is stable at temperatures up to 140 °C; the autoignition temperature is 265 °C. Methomyl is stable ...

Bromadiolone is a white to off-white powder. Its solubility in water is very low (less than 20 mg/litre at 20 °C). It is slightly soluble in ethanol and ethyl acetate, and soluble in dimethylformamide. The flash-point ...

Diflubenzuron is an odourless, white, crystalline solid. It is almost insoluble in water and poorly soluble in apolar organic solvents. In polar to very polar solvents, the solubility is moderate to good, e.g., in acetone ...

Hydroquinone is a white crystalline substance when pure and is highly soluble in water. Hydroquinone is combustible when preheated. It is a reducing agent that is reversibly oxidized to semiquinone and quinone.
