Application

Benzyl thiocyanate was used to study the effects of various dietary compounds on the α-hydroxylation of N-nitrosopyrrolidine in male F344 rats in vitro.

General description

Benzyl thiocyanate undergoes regioselective bond dissociation during its electrochemical reduction in acetonitrile at an inert electrode. It is added to stimulate the chlortetracycline biosynthesis during industrial fermentations. It undergoes biotransformation into dibenzyl disulphide by Streptomyces aureofaciens.

The localization of anhydrotetracycline oxygenase and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.49) was studied by determining the enzyme activities in subcellular fractions obtained by differential centrifugation of the mycelia of Streptomyces aureofaciens after lysozyme treatment. Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase was a typical cytoplasmic enzyme
