In the 3 March issue of Science, researchers report a way to clean up a commonplace family of chemical reactions — turning alcohols
into aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids, starting materials for everything from pharmaceuticals to fragrances.
This will help block the conversion of alcohol
into aldehyde, the most hangover - causing metabolite that also causes very fast aging, wrinkles, etc..
Not exact matches
That study found that benomyl inhibited an enzyme called
aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH), which converts
aldehydes highly toxic to dopamine cells
into less toxic agents, and therefore contributed to the development of Parkinson's.
If ingested, the so called toxic alcohols (other than ethanol) such as methanol, propanol, and ethylene glycol metabolize
into toxic
aldehydes and acids, which cause potentially fatal metabolic acidosis.
Optimized selective aerobic oxidations in ionic liquids convert various activated primary alcohols
into their corresponding acids or
aldehydes in good to excellent yields.
Aldehydes can be converted
into acetic acid a harmless compound in the presence of nutrients such as glutamine, selenium, niacin folic acid, B6, B12, iron and molybdenum.
Besides the damage from trans fats, vegetable oils such as peanut, corn, and soy oil degrade
into highly toxic oxidation products called cyclic
aldehydes when heated, and these byproducts may actually do more harm than trans fat.
activates
aldehyde oxidase enzyme, needed for conversion of
aldehydes into a water - soluble acidic form (detox pathway end for vinyl chloride, formaldehyde, chemicals from industrial and auto exhaust, etc..)
This chemically alters the molecules
into a wide variety of potent toxins with long names like 4 - hydroxynonanal and 4 - hydroxyhexanol,
aldehydes, and others.
