Disease relevance of SO4-SO4

Sulfuric acid produced diffuse pulmonary hyperinflation with areas of consolidation and atelectasis [1].
Sulfuric acid appears to cause laryngeal cancer [2].
Sulfuric acid produced by the chemolithoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing bacterium Thiobacillus thiooxidansis known to induce concrete corrosion [3].
Sulfuric acid produces a coagulation necrosis of the gastric mucosa and submucosa, and the process may involve the entire thickness of the gastric wall, with subsequent ulceration and fibrosis [4].

High impact information on SO4-SO4

Sulfuric acid aerosol, a by-product of fossil fuel combustion, produces desquamation of terminal bronchiolar epithelium in guinea pigs that is believed to result from direct deep lung irritation, an effect separable from reflex airway constriction induced by sulfuric acid [1].
Inorganic-organic hybrid membranes with anhydrous proton conduction prepared from 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and sulfuric Acid by the sol-gel method [5].
Sulfuric acid hydrolysis according to the Saeman procedure, TFA hydrolysis, and methanolysis combined with TFA hydrolysis were compared for the hydrolysis of water-soluble uronic acid-containing polysaccharides originating from fungi, plants, and animals [6].
Sulfuric acid is an atmospheric pollutant and nitric acid may form locally on the mucosa of lungs exposed to nitrogen dioxide [7].
Sulfuric acid-treated biomass beads developed through immobilization in polysulphone were used in a column study [8].

Biological context of SO4-SO4

Sulfuric acid hydrolysis of these polysaccharides resulted in low recoveries of 6-deoxy-sugar residues [6].
Sulfuric acid was administered by instillation and by inhalation for each species [9].

Anatomical context of SO4-SO4

Sulfuric acid extracts of rat aortic smooth muscle cells were four times more active than extracts of mesenteric artery (710 vs. 170 nmol/h per mg protein) [10].

Associations of SO4-SO4 with other chemical compounds

Five types of non-viable pretreated A. niger biomass powders were used as a biosorbent to remove phenol present in an aqueous solution at a concentration of 1,000 microg/l. Sulfuric acid-treated non-viable biomass powder, which was the most effective, was used as a biosorbent in a further study [8].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of SO4-SO4

Sulfuric acid aerosol exposure in humans assessed by bronchoalveolar lavage [11].
