  2. Allantoin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allantoin

    Allantoin is a major metabolic intermediate in most organisms including animals, plants and bacteria, though not humans. It is produced from uric acid, which itself is a degradation product of nucleic acids, by action of urate oxidase (uricase). [3] [4] [5] Allantoin also occurs as a natural mineral compound (IMA symbol Aan [6]).

  3. Elephant's toothpaste - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elephant's_toothpaste

    Elephant's toothpaste is a foamy substance caused by the quick decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2) using potassium iodide (KI) or yeast and warm water as a catalyst. [1] How rapidly the reaction proceeds will depend on the concentration of hydrogen peroxide.

  4. Allantoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allantoic_acid

    It is a crystalline acid obtained by hydrolysis of allantoin. In nature, allantoic acid is produced from allantoin by the enzyme allantoinase (encoded by the gene AllB ( Uniprot : P77671 ) in Escherichia coli and other bacteria ).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_solution

    Molecular models of the different molecules active in Piranha solution: peroxysulfuric acid (H 2 SO 5) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2). Piranha solution, also known as piranha etch, is a mixture of sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4) and hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2).

  9. Fragrance extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fragrance_extraction

    Organic solvent extraction is the most common and most economically important technique for extracting aromatics in the modern perfume industry. Raw materials are submerged and agitated in a solvent that can dissolve the desired aromatic compounds. Commonly used solvents for maceration/solvent extraction include hexane, and dimethyl ether.
