Impedance spectroscopy was used for studies of the frequency dependence of the electric conductivity of two highly conducting liquid amides: N-methylformamide (NMF), strongly self-associated via the hydrogen bonds C=O...N-H, and N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), which is not able to self-organize by hydrogen

The inability to predict if a metabolically bioactivated compound will cause toxicity in later stages of drug development or post-marketing is of serious concern. One approach for improving the predictive success of compound toxicity has been to compare the gene

The photochemistry of N-methylformamide (MF) is elucidated by investigating its photodissociation products generated by UV irradiation (248 nm) in an argon matrix (10 K). We find that, starting from trans-MF, prolonged irradiation produces cis-MF, CH3NH2 and CO fragments as major

Cryoprotectant toxicity is a fundamental limiting factor for the successful cryopreservation of living systems by both freezing and vitrification, and the ability to negate it would be attractive. Past attempts to demonstrate "cryoprotectant toxicity neutralization" (CTN) have had many ups

N-methylformamide (NMF), the simplest model for peptides, exhibits hyperplectic (both simple and complex) behavior as revealed by thin film infrared spectroscopy on planar AgX [AgCl:AgBr] fiber. IR spectra (0.1 s scans) of 10 microg NMF/dichloromethane(DCM) under N(2) flow first show
