Ethylene glycol toxicity: the role of serum glycolic acid in hemodialysis.

W H Porter et al.

Journal of toxicology. Clinical toxicology, 39(6), 607-615 (2002-01-05)

To correlate serum glycolic acid levels with clinical severity and outcome in ethylene glycol poisoning and to determine if glycolic acid levels are predictive of renal failure and the need for hemodialysis. We measured serum ethylene glycol and glycolic acid

PLGG1, a plastidic glycolate glycerate transporter, is required for photorespiration and defines a unique class of metabolite transporters.

Thea R Pick et al.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 110(8), 3185-3190 (2013-02-06)

Photorespiratory carbon flux reaches up to a third of photosynthetic flux, thus contributes massively to the global carbon cycle. The pathway recycles glycolate-2-phosphate, the most abundant byproduct of RubisCO reactions. This oxygenation reaction of RubisCO and subsequent photorespiration significantly limit

State of degradation in archeological oak from the 17th century Vasa ship: substantial strength loss correlates with reduction in (holo)cellulose molecular weight.

Ingela Bjurhager et al.

Biomacromolecules, 13(8), 2521-2527 (2012-07-10)

In 1628, the Swedish warship Vasa capsized on her maiden voyage and sank in the Stockholm harbor. The ship was recovered in 1961 and, after polyethylene glycol (PEG) impregnation, it was displayed in the Vasa museum. Chemical investigations of the
