Of sponge

Isomtriles are stable often naturally occumng compounds that contain a divalent carbon An example is axisonitnle 3 which can be isolated from a species of sponge and possesses anti malanal activity Write a resonance form for axisonitnle 3 that satisfies the octet rule Don t for get to include formal charges... 

The complex of the following destmctive and nondestmctive analytical methods was used for studying the composition of sponges inductively coupled plasma mass-spectrometry (ICP-MS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), electron probe microanalysis (EPMA), and atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS). Techniques of sample preparation were developed for each method and their metrological characteristics were defined. Relative standard deviations for all the elements did not exceed 0.25 within detection limit. The accuracy of techniques elaborated was checked with the method of additions and control methods of analysis. 

Absorption - Processes water can be removed from a material by the capillary action of porous bodies. An example is the cream of clay and water used for casting pottery, which is deprived of the greater part of its water by placing it in molds of plaster of Paris. The capillary character of this mold withdraws the water from the liquid clay mixture and deposits upon itself a layer of solid clay, the thickness of which is controlled by the time of standing. Certain types of candies, such as gumdrops, are dried mainly by contact with the starch molds in which they are cast. The drying effect of sponges, towels and materials of this kind is due to this same action. 

The mechanical properties of the alloys will vary slightly according to the purity of sponge, and also with heat treatment. 

LD50 values can be determined for alcoholic extracts of sponges by... 

Suberitine, a small protein from the sponge Suberites domcuncula, has a variety of actions. It is not very toxic but causes hemolysis in human erythrocytes, flaccid paralysis in crabs and depolarization of squid axon and abdominal nerve of crayfish. A variety of extracts from Porifera have been shown to be toxic to fish and generally have cytotoxic and hemolytic actions (62,63). As discussed previously, a variety of sponges exude substances that are toxic to fish. 

The most common and least expensive catalyst for producing primaiy amines from nitriles is sponge nickel. The generalized reaction, carried out in the presence of sponge nickel catalyst, is the following ... 

Although use of radio and stable isotope labels involving the trio of covalently-bonded nitrogenous functions in 3 and in 78, provided evidence that isocyano is the precursor of the isothiocyano and formamido groups [30, 81], it remains to be shown that a biosynthetic equivalent of the in vitro chemically-proven fusion process between isocyano and free sulfur (e.g., cf. Introduction) exists in the cells of sponges. In marine biota, various ionic forms of sulfur in a number of oxidation states, as well as organo-polysulfides are known. However, any association with the isonitrile group and a sulfated species has yet to be established. 

Mechanically beating the product to produce a foam. An example of this is whisking an egg into a foam with flour, as in the production of sponge cakes.
