Vinegar test dry ice. Vinegar highlights tumors, which have more DNA, and therefore less water and more protein, than healthy tissue. As of 2011, Thailand has adopted the technique in twenty-nine of its (then) seventy-five provinces, and 500,000 women have been tested at least once. The vinegar test does have important limitations and disadvantages for cervical cancer screening, as well; please refer to that section in the main Cervical_screening article. Vinegar test Vinegar test is a cervical cancer testing method that uses acetic acid, a major component of vinegar. It has been found to be useful as an effective and inexpensive screening
Phenylarsonic acid was first prepared by Michaelis and Loenser. X-ray crystallography indicates that the molecules are connected by hydrogen-bonds consistent with short distance of 2.5 Å separating the oxygen atoms. The arsenic center is tetrahedral. Several derivatives of phenylarsonic acid have been used as additives for animal feeds. These include 4-hydroxy-3-nitrobenzenearsonic acid (3-NHPAA, or Roxarsone), "p"-arsanilic acid ("p"-ASA), 4-nitrophenylarsonic acid (4-NPAA), and "p"-ureidophenylarsonic acid ("p"-UPAA). Phenylarsonic acid Phenylarsonic acid is the chemical compound with the formula CHAsO(OH), commonly abbreviated PhAsOH. This colourless solid is an organic derivative of arsenic acid, AsO(OH), where one OH group has been replaced by a phenyl group.
