The book contains about 500 entries arranged in alphabetical order. These include formulas and descriptions of about 120 explosive chemicals, about 60 additives, fuels, and oxidizing agents, and a 1500-entry subject index. 

In addition to the subject index with entries of several aspects, such as oxidation with. . . , oxidation of.. . , or. . . by oxidation of, the desired oxidation can be located in the following ways.

Lubricants. Petroleum lubricants continue to be the mainstay for automotive, industrial, and process lubricants. Synthetic oils are used extensively in industry and for jet engines they, of course, are made from hydrocarbons. Since the viscosity index (a measure of the viscosity behavior of a lubricant with change in temperature) of lube oil fractions from different cmdes may vary from +140 to as low as —300, additional refining steps are needed. To improve the viscosity index (VI), lube oil fractions are subjected to solvent extraction, solvent dewaxing, solvent deasphalting, and hydrogenation. Furthermore, automotive lube oils typically contain about 12—14% additives. These additives maybe oxidation inhibitors to prevent formation of gum and varnish, corrosion inhibitors, or detergent dispersants, and viscosity index improvers. The United States consumption of lubricants is shown in Table 7. 

In vivo studies were also conducted by several researchers. Anraku et al. (2009) examined the antioxidant effects of water-soluble chitosan in normal subjects by measuring the reduction of indices of oxidative stress. Treatment with chitosan for 4weeks produced a significant decrease in levels of plasma glucose and the atherogenic index, and led to an increase in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). Chitosan treatment also lowered the ratio of oxidized to reduced albumin and increased total plasma antioxidant activity. Further, Anraku et al. (2011) proved the antioxidant effects of high MW chitosan in normal volunteers, and the obtained results were consistent with previous results observed by Anraku et al. (2009). 

Compositions of ABS polymers that contain a special ethylene oxide copolymer have been developed, which do not suffer from these drawbacks. The ethylene oxide copolymer consists of ethylene oxide and 1-naphthyl glycidyl ether. The copolymer a should have a high refractive index of more than 1.50. The presence of this copolymer in the ABS resin composition gives a product of remarkably improved surface appearance when the composition is subjected to injection molding. In addition, the resin composition has an excellent antistatic property (23). 

Free pyridoxal either leaves the cells or is oxidized to 4-pyridoxic acid by aldehyde dehydrogenase (which is present in all tissues) and also by hepatic and renal aldehyde oxidases. 4-Pyridoxic acid is actively secreted by the renal tubules, so measurement of the plasma concentration provides an index of renal function (Coburn et al., 2002). There is some evidence that oxidation to 4-pyridoxic acid increases with increasing age in elderly people, the plasma concentration of pyridoxal phosphate is lower, and that of 4-pyridoxic acid higher, than in younger subjects even when there is no evidence of impaired renal function (Bates et al., 1999b). Small amounts of pyridoxal and pyridox-amine are also excreted in the urine, although much of the active vitamin Be that is filtered in the glomerulus is reabsorbed in the kidney tubules.
