Sorrow, Villainy, Misfortune, and Plague. At the bottom of the jar was Hope, but Pandora closed the lid before Hope could escape. 

Abstract. Sodium 5-nitrotetrazolate dihydrate (NaNT) is a useful precursor compound for the synthesis of lead-free primary explosives however, currently employed syntheses for the compound are tedious, dangerous, and plagued by impurities. Through comprehensive analysis, we elucidate the identity of the most detrimental impurities and further report an improved procedure for preparation of NaNT, which greatly improves the purity, while avoiding the handling of acid cop-...

Tetracyclines are classified as broad-spectrum antibiotics obtained from soil acti-nomycetes. All tetracyclines are slightly bitter solids and are weakly soluble in water. Although tetracyclines develop organism resistance, they are the drugs of first choice in venereal disease, atypical pneumonia, cholera, brucellosis, and plague. Tetracyclines also are used in urinary tract infections, amebiasis, acne, and as prophylaxis against meningitis. 

During World War II, the Japanese dropped fleas infected with plague (Yersinia pestis) on Chinese cities, killing hundreds and possibly thousands. Thousands of documents captured from the Japanese following the war further attest to the Japanese use of anthrax, typhoid, and plague on Manchurian towns and cities.

For many years, the second edition of Pharma-zeutische Wirkstoffe has been out of print and colleagues and friends have asked and plagued us to publish a new edition. Everyone who has ever prepared a similar reference book knows how much energy and enthusiasm has to be put into such a task besides the daily job in industry. After some hesitation we finally decided to prepare the new edition, in English. Two fortunate circumstances made things a lot easier. 

Here was a singular character who played with chemical apparatus and weighed the earth, while more than a million pounds deposited in his name in the Bank of England remained untouched. His bankers had been warned by this eccentric man not to come and plague him about his wealth, or he would immediately take it out of their hands. 

Certain insect species are the carriers of some of humanity s most dreaded diseases, including malaria, ty-phns, and plague. As consumers of agricultural crops and parasites of our livestock, insects are also humankind s number one competitor for resources.

Like the British a year later, Masuda quickly came to the conclusion that anthrax was the most practical bomb filling. Its spores were found to live for three months in Pingfan s carefully prepared suspensions. This compared with a mere three days for cholera, and a week for dysentery and plague.
