Modification through

The first perspective is the traditional safety engineering approach (Section 2.4). This stresses the individual factors that give rise to accidents and hence emphasizes selection, together with motivational and disciplinary approaches to accident and error reduction. The main emphasis here is on behavior modification, through persuasion (motivational campaigns) or pimishment. The main area of application of this approach has been to occupational safety, which focuses on hazards that affect the individual worker, rather than process safety, which emphasizes major systems failures that could cause major plant losses and impact to the environment as well as individual injury. 

The elimination of a drug is its removal from the body, either by chemical modification through metabolism or by removal from the body through the kidney, the gut, the lungs or the skin.

To facilitate biodegradation, the leachate may require modification through pH adjustment, removal or addition of oxygen, amendment with nutrients, or dilution or removal of toxic species. Microbial nutrition is complex and is better understood for aerobes than for anaerobes.34 Biological processes typically favor a pH near 7. Pretreatment processes to remove inhibitory components include coagulation and precipitation, carbon adsorption, and possibly ozonation.

There is also a need for cell systems that express a multiplicity of transporters. Cell line modification through cDNA-expression can be used to add missing functions to cells that are known to express only a subset of the enzymes or transporters that are needed and are known to be present in vivo. In this way, in vitro screening models can be improved. 

Tyrosine may be targeted specifically for modification through its phenolate anion by acylation, through electrophilic reactions such as the addition of iodine or diazonium ions, and by Mannich condensation reactions. The electrophilic substitution reactions on tyrosine s ring all occur at the ortho position to the —OH group (Figure 1.11). Most of these reactions proceed effectively only when tyrosine s ring is ionized to the phenolate anion form. 

As signaled within this book, modification through exposure to radiation, (thermal, light and particle) continues to be at the forefront of many areas of polymer modification. A major problem involves use of industrial radiation curing of... 

Chemical modification, through addition of functional groups that disrupt the sp2 pattern or isolation of individual tubes by noncovalent wrapping of various compounds, comes to our aid as one of the simplest and most effective ways to debundle the aggregates, thus improving solubility and processability.

PUFA are prone to decomposition or modification through the action of oxygen. Various substances can be formed in this way, among which are the epoxy acids. In order to minimise these processes, it is advised to protect the acids by adding an anti-oxidant to the samples of interest such as 2,6-di-tert.butyl-4-hydroxytoluene (BHT). 

Very recently, a major revision of the chemical pathways operating in the photocatalytic conversion of organic substrates was undertaken. Tliese studies were carried out through very careful product analysis [58,59], by using selected substrates with similar chemical properties but different sorption behavior [60], or by surface modification through complexation by redox inactive species [61,62]. 

Enzymatic modification of proteins applicable to foods is reviewed by Whitaker ( ). Described briefly are present uses of proteolytic enzymes for modifying proteins through partial hydrolysis. Major emphasis is placed on those enzymes which bring about aggregation of proteins, cross-link formation, and side chain modification through post-translational changes in the polypeptide chain.
