A novel method for the identification of inorganic and organic gunshot residue particles of lead-free ammunitions from the hands of shooters using scanning laser ablation-ICPMS and Raman micro-spectroscopy.

Analyst 139(23) , 6232-41, (2014)

A method based on scanning laser ablation and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (SLA-ICPMS) and Raman micro-spectroscopy for the detection and identification of compounds consistent with gunshot residue particles (GSR) has been developed. The metho...

Chlorine-free pyrotechnics: copper(I) iodide as a "green" blue-light emitter.

Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. Engl. 53(36) , 9665-8, (2014)

The generation of blue-light-emitting pyrotechnic formulations without the use of chlorine-containing compounds is reported. Suitable blue-light emission has been achieved through the generation of molecular emitting copper(I) iodide. The most optimal copper(...

Substrate specificity of rabbit aldehyde oxidase for nitroguanidine and nitromethylene neonicotinoid insecticides.

Chem. Res. Toxicol. 19(1) , 38-43, (2006)

The nitroguanidine or nitromethylene moiety of the newest major class of insecticides, the neonicotinoids, is important for potency at insect nicotinic receptors and selectivity relative to mammalian receptors. Aldehyde oxidase (AOX) was recently identified a...

Aerobic mineralization of nitroguanidine by Variovorax strain VC1 isolated from soil.

Environ. Sci. Technol. 46(11) , 6035-40, (2012)

Nitroguanidine (NQ) is an energetic material that is used as a key ingredient of triple-base propellants and is currently being considered as a TNT replacement in explosive formulations. NQ was efficiently degraded in aerobic microcosms when a carbon source w...

Comparative metabolite profiling of the insecticide thiamethoxam in plant and cell suspension culture of tomato.

J. Agric. Food Chem. 57(14) , 6369-74, (2009)

The metabolism of thiamethoxam [(EZ)-3-(2-chloro-1,3-thiazol-5-yl-methyl)-5-methyl-1,3,5-oxadiazinan-4-ylidene (nitro) amine] was investigated in whole plant, callus, and heterotrophic cell suspension culture of aseptically and field grown tomato (Lycopersico...

AOTF Raman spectrometer for remote detection of explosives.

Spectrochim. Acta. A. Mol. Biomol. Spectrosc. 56A(8) , 1453-6, (2000)

A spectrometer based on acousto-optic tunable filters is developed for use in measuring Raman spectra as part of a detection system that is low-cost, reliable, and field-portable. The system is coupled with a fiber optic bundle to carry the excitation laser l...

The fate of nitroguanidine in the rat.

Fundam. Appl. Toxicol. 10(3) , 453-8, (1988)

The metabolism and disposition of nitroguanidine (NG), a component of military propellants and munitions, were examined in the rat. Radiolabeled nitroguanidine [( 14C]NG) was administered orally at doses of 20 and 200 mg/kg and intravenously at a dose of 20 m...

Mutagenic potential of nitroguanidine and nitrosoguanidine in the Drosophila melanogaster sex-linked recessive lethal assay.

J. Appl. Toxicol. 13(4) , 231-4, (1993)

Nitroguanidine (NG) and its degradation product nitrosoguanidine (NSG) were evaluated for their mutagenic potential by using Drosophila melanogaster sex-linked recessive lethal (SLRL) assay. Following 72 h of feeding exposure, NG and NSG at concentrations of ...
