In one series, infection was the most common etiology of death in extremely low birth weight infants (56 of 111); congenital pneumonia accounted for 30 of these 56 infections [7]. Pneumonia caused by maternal enteric organisms frequently accompanies chorioamnionitis and/or funisitis in these congenital infections.
Diphenylguanidine is one of common accelerators for the vulcanization of rubber in combination with thiazoles and sulfenamides. Though it does not show better activity than thiuram and dithiocarbamates, it has better stability.
Thymidine (deoxythymidine; other names deoxyribosylthymine, thymine deoxyriboside) is a pyrimidine deoxynucleoside. Deoxythymidine is the DNA nucleoside T, which pairs with deoxyadenosine (A) in double-stranded DNA.In cell biology it is used to synchronize the cells in S phase.Before the boom in thymidine use caused by the need for thymidine for the production of the antiretroviral drug azidothymidine (AZT), much of the world's thymidine production came from herring sperm.eoxythymidine is non-toxic and as part of one of the four nucleotides in DNA it is a naturally occurring compound that exists in all living organisms and DNA viruses. RNA has uridine (uracil joined to ribose) instead. Uracil is chemically very similar to thymine, the latter being 5-methyluracil.
