The phrase "acrolein were used" is not correct in standard written English.
It should be "acrolein was used" if referring to a singular subject.
Example: "In the experiment, acrolein was used as a reagent to test the reaction."
Alternatives: "acrolein was utilized" or "acrolein was employed."
The adjusted estimated ambient acrolein exposure levels were used in the selected models (Supplemental Material, Table S2, available online at http://www.ehponline.org/docs/2006/9467/suppl.pdf) to predict the lung function parameters expected following acrolein exposure, or the predicted response.
Acrolein-fixated erythrocytes were used for combined antibody staining with mouse anti-stomatin (GARP-50, kindly provided by Rainer Prohaska, University of Vienna, Austria; 1/200) and rabbit polyclonal antiserum against the membrane domain of human band 3 (K2N6B/PMB3; 1/100).
If sugars were used in a mixture of ingredients, there was a slight increase in nicotine-based acrolein yields (up to 18%, not dependent on sugar application level) but a decrease if related to tar yield (Rustemeier et al., 2002).
One polymer variety that the team developed releases acrolein, which is used to fight the algae and bacteria that foul irrigation canals.
The explosion was believed to have been caused by rain leaking through the roof of an underground storage tank holding 480,000 pounds of the chemical acrolein, which is used to make animal food supplements, algae killers and tear gas.
Acrolein (0 1 mM) was used for obtaining the standard curve.
A validated two-dimensional pseudo-homogeneous model was used for simulation and optimization of acrolein production process in a pilot-scale fixed-bed reactor.
In the following, the cuprous halides and molecular oxygen are supplemented into the reaction system in order to improve the yield of furan-2-acrolein; therein, it is found that furfuryl alcohol is further oxidized and the selectivity of furan-2-acrolein is obviously elevated when CuI and o-phenanthroline (Phen) are used as the co-catalysts.
(Acrolein, which most cooks recognize as the smell of burnt fats or oils, was used in grenades in World War I because it causes irritation to the lungs and eyes).
The lowest total CC emission factor (2271 pg g−1) was found when B50 was used; the individual emission factors determined (pg g−1) were: 539.7 (formaldehyde), 1411 (acetaldehyde), 30.83 (acrolein), and 310.7 (propionaldehyde).
