TL;DR: In this paper, a direct colorimetric method that simultaneously combines measurement of solubilized and insoluble thiol groups and disulfide bonds in corn meal-based materials is described.
Abstract: A direct colorimetric method that simultaneously combines measurement of solubilized and insoluble thiol groups and disulfide bonds in corn meal-based materials is described. Ellman's reagent, 5,5'-dithiobis (2-nitrobenzoic acid), which reacts specifically with thiol groups, or disodium 2-nitro-5-thiosulfobenzoate, which reacts with cysteine and thiol groups formed after reduction of disulfide bonds with sodium sulfite, were reacted directly with corn meal in the presence of surfactants (urea and/or sodium dodecyl sulfate), releasing the soluble chromophore 2-nitro-5-thiobenzoate. After a clarification step to remove suspended material, absorbance at 412 nm was read. This assay was highly reproducible, and measurements agreed with direct amino acid analysis. Twin-screw extrusion of corn meal at 150 degrees C at moisture levels of 16 and 18% had no significant effect on cysteine or disulfide bond levels. Other possible changes such as disulfide bond rearrangements could not be determined by the mixed-phase assay. This method provides a rapid and convenient means for screening thiol and disulfide levels in insoluble proteinaceous materials

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of 4-hexylresorcinol on browning in apple slices was evaluated during storage at four temperatures, using reflectance spectroscopy and visible light absorption.
Abstract: Effectiveness of 4-hexylresorcinol to inhibit enzymatic and nonenzymatic browning in apple slices preserved by combined methods was assessed during storage at four temperatures. Sodium sulfite and ascorbic acid-2-phosphate were used for comparison. Browning as measured by reflectance spectroscopy and based on visible light absorption was partially inhibited by 4-hexylresorcinol comparable to that of a fivefold sulfite concentration at 25 o C. At temperature above 35 o C, the inhibiting effect of 4-hexylresorcinol was minimal. Energy of activation of the browning reaction was 5-20 kcal/mol and was not affected by anti-browning treatment. Only induction time was delayed by the 4-hexylresorcinol and sulfite treatments

TL;DR: In this paper, the photoinduced electron transfer between Hypocrellin A and sodium sulfite was investigated to produce the semiquinone radical anion of Hypocllin B (HB) and the sulfur trioxide radical anions (·SO 3 - ).
Abstract: Hypocrellin A (HA) and hypocrellin B (HB) are efficient phototherapeutic agents. Irradiation of HB with visible light in the presence of sodium sulfite in water-pyridine or water- N,N -dimethylformamide (1:1, v/v) solution gives hypocrellin B-5-sulfonic acid and hypocrellin B-5,8-disulfonic acid. HA reacts similarly under the same conditions. Electron spin resonance and 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline- N -oxide (DMPO) spin trapping studies indicate that this photoreaction is initiated by the photoinduced electron transfer between HB and sodium sulfite to produce the semiquinone radical anion of HB (HB .− ) and the sulfur trioxide radical anion (·SO 3 - ). The intermediates (HB .− and 5-SO 3 − -HB .− ) produced from the photolysis process have also been observed in absorption spectra. The attack of ·SO 3 − on HB at the 5 and/or 8 positions to form the sulfonated products has been verified by quenching experiments. The effects of air and pH on the sulfonation reaction have been investigated. On the basis of the experimental evidence, the reaction pathway for the photoreaction is proposed.

TL;DR: Sodium sulfite and sodium disulfite induced photohemolysis up to almost 100%, the effect depending on the concentration of the compounds and UV dose administered, and the clinical significance of these findings has to be established by further work.
Abstract: Additives are used widely to enhance the quality of food products. To identify possible phototoxic properties, 13 food additives (benzoic acid, sodium benzoate, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid methyl ester, 4-hydroxybenzoic ethyl ester, 4-hydroxybenzoic acid propyl ester, p-hydroxybenzoic acid n-butyl ester, benzyl alcohol, sorbic acid, potassium sorbate, propionic acid, sodium disulfite and sodium sulfite) were evaluated in vitro by means of a photohemolysis test using suspensions of human erythrocytes. Irradiation was performed with various light sources differing with regard to their spectral irradiance. Sodium sulfite and sodium disulfite induced photohemolysis up to almost 100%, the effect depending on the concentration of the compounds and UV dose administered. Radiation rich in UVB was most effective; a sunlight-simulating lamp induced photohemolysis to a lesser degree. All other substances tested did not cause significant photohemolysis. As sulfites are frequently encountered, they may contribute to UVB sensitivity. The clinical significance of these findings has to be established by further work.

TL;DR: In this article, Fenton's reagent which is formed by combining hydrogen peroxide and ferrous salt is added to cyanide containing waste water under acidic conditions of pH2-6 to give it oxidation treatment.
Abstract: PURPOSE:To improve treating efficiency by oxidation-treating cyanide containing waste water with Fenton's reagent, next adding copper salt to decompose excess hydrogen peroxide and further adding a reducing agent to make cyanide compounds hard to dissolve, permitting them to be separated. CONSTITUTION:Fenton's reagent which is formed by combining hydrogen peroxide and ferrous salt is added to cyanide containing waste water under acidic conditions of pH2-6 to give it oxidation treatment. In this case, the added quantity of the reagent is determined by previously giving sampling treatment to the waste water so that treating time may be about 0.5-5hr. After the oxidation treatment, sodium hydroxide, etc., are added to make it alkaline, pH8-10, and copper salt, such as copper sulfate is added by such amount that treating time may be about 10min-3hr to decompose excess hydrogen peroxide. Next, a reducing agent, such as sodium sulfite is added under conditions of pH2-10 by such amount that treating time may be 5min-1hr to make cyanide compounds hard to dissolve. Next, the precipitate is removed in a precipitator, etc.

TL;DR: The preparation of 2-chlorobenzoxazole-2-sulfonate and its use as a reagent for the formation of fluorescent derivatives of amines and amino acids is described in this article.
Abstract: The preparation of sodium benzoxazole-2-sulfonate and its use as a reagent for the formation of fluorescent derivatives of amines and amino acids is described. Sodium benzoxazole-2-sulfonate is readily prepared by boiling 2-chlorobenzoxazole with sodium sulfite. Sodium benzoxazole-2-sulfonate is non-fluorescent, but reacts with amines and amino acids to give derivatives which exhibit intense blue fluorescence. The solubility of the compound in water also makes it particularly advantageous as a reagent for the derivatisation of amino acids. Furthermore, sodium benzoxazole-2-sulfonate may be tagged onto an ion-exchange resin, in which form it may be used for heterogeneous on-line pre- or post-column derivatisation of amines and amino acids.

TL;DR: In this paper, a ring closure of 5,6-diamino-as-triazines with phenylglyoxal in methanol was performed to give the E-form Schiff bases which then isomerize to the corresponding enamines.
Abstract: Certain derivatives of dihydro- and tetrahydropyrazino[2,3-e]-as-triazines were prepared by ring closure of 5,6-diamino-as-triazines with phenylglyoxal in methanol. These 4-azapteridines experience an addition of the alcohol at C(7), and N(8) underwent an unusual methylation under acidic conditions affording the 7-methoxy-8-methyl-6-phenyldihydropyrazino derivative. Regioselective control by the aldehyde-binding reagent, sodium hydrogen sulfite and sodium sulfite, tends to direct the phenyl group to the C(7). Hinsberg reaction of 5,6-diamino-as-triazines with phenacyl bromide proceeded in regiospecific fashion to give the E-form Schiff bases which then isomerize to the corresponding enamines

TL;DR: In this article, Hypocrellin A and sodium sulfite in strong alkalineaqueous solution (1% NaOH) with a stream of air blowing through the liquid led to the formation of 13-SO_3Na-DDHA in 30% yield.
Abstract: Refluxing of Hypocrellin A (or Hypocrellin B) and sodium sulfite in strong alkalineaqueous solution (1% NaOH) with a stream of air blowing through the liquid led to theformation of sodium 14-dehydroxy-15-deacetyl-Hypocrellin A-13-sulfonate (13-SO_3Na-DDHA) (in 30% yield) and a red water-soluble polymer. If the reaction of Hypocrellins and so-dium sulfite proceeded in mixed solvents of pyridine-water (1: 1/v: v) in the presence of CuO,a single water-soluble product 13-SO_3Na-DDHA was obtained in 70% yield. In the lattersystem, the alternation of the solvent and the oxidant facilitated the production of13-SO_3Na-DDHA. The ESR study of the reaction system showed that this sulfonationreaction was initiated by the heat induced electron transfer between Hypocrellins and SO_2~(2-)to produce the semiquinone radical anion and sulfur trioxide radical anion (SO_3~-). The nitromethane aci-anion quenching experiment proved that the key step for the formationof 13-SO_3Na-DDHA was the attack of SO_3 on Hypocrellins at the 13-position which could beactivated under alkaline and higher temperature conditions. The role of the oxidant used was con-sidered to be a quencher of the semiquinone radical anion of HA (or HB) to its parent quinone toincrease the relative concentration of HA (or HB) so that the generation of SO_3~- via the electrontransfer interaction between Hypocrellins and SO_3~(2-) was accelerated.

TL;DR: In this paper, the degree of sulfite decomposition in a specific boiler and controlling the factors that promote decomposition will reduce the likelihood and severity of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of copper alloys.
Abstract: Sodium sulfite is used routinely for removing traces of oxygen from the water in low- and moderate-pressure boilers. Sodium sulfite is unacceptable for use in higher pressure boilers because it will decompose, which will release acidic gases into the steam and increase corrosion of after-boiler components. However, even in moderate-pressure boilers, one of the products of sulfite decomposition, moist sulfur dioxide, can cause stress corrosion cracking (SCC) of copper alloys. Monitoring the degree of sulfite decomposition in a specific boiler and controlling the factors that promote decomposition will reduce the likelihood and severity of SCC.
