The relationship between the water stability of microaggregates and the residual carbohydrate content of soil was examined in 15 soils from 7 soil series under various cultivations. The carbohydrate ...

SINCE the original discovery by Malaprade of the cleavage of α-glycols by periodic acid and its salts, the reaction has been widely and increasingly used in the solution of structural problems ...

THE mechanism of action of periodate on sugar phosphates has not been fully established and there is some controversy regarding the origin of the products of periodate action 1,2,3. The convenient ...

Periodate—an ion composed of iodine, oxygen, and hydrogen—was studied in water-based solutions extensively from the 1950s to the 1980s. Ever since those studies, chemists have accepted that periodate ...

Researchers can make the oxidation reactions used in the synthesis of organic molecules cleaner by hitching photovoltaics to electrochemistry. The idea is simple and yet it has huge implications. To ...
