Sugars ammonia

Many compounds were given informal, common names before their compositions were known. Common names include water, salt, sugar, ammonia, and quartz. A systematic name, on the other hand, reveals which dements are present and, in some cases, the arrangement of atoms. The systemic naming of compounds, which is called chemical nomenclature, follows the simple rules described in this section.

Besides structure elucidation for the browning polymer, Py-GC/MS studies were also done in connection with food related problems [10] such as the use of sugar-ammonia browning polymers as food colors.

Tears are made of salt, sugar, ammonia, urea, water, citric acid, and lysozomes. 

The elemental and vitamin compositions of some representative yeasts are Hsted in Table 1. The principal carbon and energy sources for yeasts are carbohydrates (usually sugars), alcohols, and organic acids, as weU as a few other specific hydrocarbons. Nitrogen is usually suppHed as ammonia, urea, amino acids or oligopeptides. The main essential mineral elements are phosphoms (suppHed as phosphoric acid), and potassium, with smaller amounts of magnesium and trace amounts of copper, zinc, and iron. These requirements are characteristic of all yeasts. The vitamin requirements, however, differ among species. Eor laboratory and many industrial cultures, a commercial yeast extract contains all the required nutrients (see also Mineral nutrients).

In early times hydrogen cyanide was manufactured from beet sugar residues and recovered from coke oven gas. These methods were replaced by the Castner process in which coke and ammonia were combined with Hquid sodium to form sodium cyanide. If hydrogen cyanide was desired, the sodium cyanide was contacted with an acid, usually sulfuric acid, to Hberate hydrogen cyanide gas, which was condensed for use. This process has since been supplanted by large-scale plants, using catalytic synthesis from ammonia and hydrocarbons. 

Cellobiose was prepared first by Skraup and Konig by the saponification of the octaacetate with alcoholic potassium hydroxide, and the method was improved by Pringsheim and Merkatz.3 Aqueous barium hydroxide also has been employed for the purpose, and methyl alcoholic ammonia has been used extensively for the hydrolysis of carbohydrate acetates. The method of catalytic hydrolysis with a small quantity of sodium methylate was introduced by Zemplen,i who considered the action to be due to the addition of the reagent to the ester-carbonyl groups of the sugar acetate and the decomposition of the addition compound by reaction with alcohol. The present procedure, reported by Zemplen, Gerecs, and Hadacsy, is a considerable improvement over the original method (see Note 2).

Achillea spp. A. millefolium L. contains achilleine, amorphous hydrolysed to achUletine, CnHj,04N, also amorphous, ammonia and a reducing sugar. A. moschata contains achilleine and moschatine, CjiHjjOjN, an ill-defined gluco-alkaloid.2 ((1) Zanon, Annalen, 1846, 58, 21. (2) von Planta, ibid., 1870,... 

Nutrients—Nitrates, ammonia, oils, glycols, alcohols, sugars, and phosphates can promote growth of algae and slime. This growth can cause tower problems, particularly with film fill. 

Pyrrole, the simplest five-membered unsaturated heterocyclic amine, is obtained commercially by treatment of furan with ammonia over an alumina catalyst at 400 °C. Furan, the oxygen-containing analog of pyrrole, is obtained by acid-catalyzed dehydration of the five-carbon sugars found in oat hulls and... 

Studies show that the production of 1kg dry biomass requires 2.0 kg sugar, 0.7 kg oxygen, 0.1 kg ammonia, with the liberation of 12,300 k Joules heat. A typical continuous fermentation operates at a dilution rate (D) = 0.2 h 1, with sugar concentration of 3% (w/v) in the incoming medium. With a fermentor of 50 m3 capacity and 90% utilisation of carbohydrate [ie 0.3% (w/v) sugar in the outgoing medium] what would be ...
