More than 80% of all the sodium chlorite produced is used for the generation of chlorine dioxide. Sodium chlorite or the chlorine dioxide generated from it or from sodium chlorate must be registered with the USEPA for each specific appHcation use as a biocide for microbial growth control or disinfection. These regulations are covered under the Eederal Insecticide, Eungicide, and Rodenticide Act (EIERA). 

A furdrer complication is that in these slowly growing oxide films, tire spread of the oxide across the metal surface is limited in the early stages by nucleation and growth control. The bare patches of metal between the oxide nuclei will clearly be exposed to a higher oxygen potential and new oxide nuclei will grow at a different initial rate than on the existing nuclei.

Cole et al. (1995) reported on knock-out mice with a germ line deletion of GR. They demonstrated that lack of GR leads to perinatal death, atelectasis of the lung, and lack of adrenalin synthesis. To circumvent perinatal lethality, Tranche et al. (1999) and Brewer et al. (2003) generated tissue-specific somatic deletions of GR. This allowed to characterize GR function in the CNS, the immune system, and the liver in more detail. In particular, these approaches revealed novel aspects of organ-specific glucocorticoid physiology such as anxiety-like behavior, growth control, and polyclonal T cell activation.

Many environmental toxins interact with specific cellular receptors, including enzymes, ion channels and ion pumps, and thus provide natural tools for the study of cellular signalling pathways. Palytoxin, a compound isolated from the coelen-terate of genus Palythoa, is one such useful and intriguing compound. The structure of palytoxin was first determined in 1981 independently by Hirata (7) and Moore (2). As one of the most potent marine toxins known, palytoxin has been studied in a variety of systems ranging from erythrocytes to neurons. As a tumor promoter of the non 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) type, palytoxin can also be studied in the context of a growth control system.
