Alkanes

08/01/1992 - "The finding of elevated scale n-alkanes is neither consistent in ichthyosis, nor specific to any one type of ichthyosis, and n-alkane assay is not helpful in distinguishing one type of hereditary ichthyosis from another. "
08/01/1992 - "The source of n-alkanes in ichthyotic scale and their role, if any, in the pathogenesis of ichthyosis remain obscure."
08/01/1992 - "Chromatographic assay of n-alkanes in skin showed detectable levels in normal controls and in patients with various forms of hereditary ichthyosis. "
08/01/1992 - "Quantification of n-alkanes in stratum corneum in the hereditary ichthyoses."
08/01/1992 - "When alkanes were excluded, no differences in lipid content were evident between two forms of autosomal recessive ichthyosis. "

04/30/2009 - "Rate constants for OH with selected large alkanes: shock-tube measurements and an improved group scheme."

07/01/1984 - "Elevated n-alkanes in congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma. "
08/01/1992 - "Although n-alkanes accumulate in some disorders of cornification, recent studies using radioactive carbon 14 content by accelerator mass spectrometry point to an exogenous origin for alkanes in normal stratum corneum, and their derivation in congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma remains controversial. "

10/01/2008 - "This study investigated the contribution of unburned lubricating oil and gasoline-derived n-alkanes to particulate emission from non-catalyst and catalyst-equipped two-stroke (2-S) mopeds operated with ester-based, fully synthetic lubricating oil. "
10/01/2008 - "Contribution of unburned lubricating oil and gasoline-derived n-alkanes to particulate emission from non-catalyst and catalyst-equipped two-stroke mopeds operated with synthetic lubricating oil."

01/01/1999 - "This study was designed to assess breath alkanes in a group of patients with active inflammatory bowel disease by a technique that clearly distinguishes pentane from isoprene, to prevent overestimation of values as in previous studies. "
