Trihaloacetaldehydes are used as sedatives, are key intermediates in the metabolism of 1,1,1,2-tetrahaloethanes, some of which are chlorofluorocarbon substitutes, and are metabolites of trihaloethanols, which are intestinal and bone marrow toxins. In the present study, trifluoroacetaldehyde was used as a

Several disulfide-reducing agents, such as dithiothreitol, 2,3-dimercapto-1-propanol, cysteine ethyl ester, and cysteine methyl ester enhanced the effectiveness of 1-methyladenine (1-MeAde) to induce oocyte maturation in the starfish Asterina pectinifera. This enhancement occurred at relatively low concentrations at which these agents
