General description

Succinonitrile has plastic crystalline nature. It is the precursor of 1,4-diaminobutane.

Application

Succinonitrile dispersed with ionic liquids entrapped in a host polymer was used to constitute gel polymer electrolytes. It was used as dopant to investigate the ionic conductivity and X-ray absorption spectroscopic results for lithium and copper salt doped succinonitrile.

Cell cycle analysis is important for cancer research. However, available methodologies have drawbacks including limited categorisation and reliance on fixation, staining or transformation. Multispectral analysis of endogenous cell autofluorescence has been shown to be sensitive to changes in cell status
