Melamine (99%) and
cyanuric acid (98%) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St.
The chemical structure of PNA was characterized by FTIR, TG, DSC, and elemental analysis, and confirmed to be ureido mixture of [C.sub.27][H.sub.36][N.sub.4][O.sub.2], [C.sub.21][H.sub.17][N.sub.3][O.sub.2], and
cyanuric acid. Nonisothermal crystallization, mechanical properties and polymorphism of PA6 and PA6/PNA blend were studied by DSC analysis, POM observations, mechanical test, and XRD analysis.
Findings of present study may be used as preliminary information to plan biological trials by keeping in view of other melamine related chemical compounds particularly
cyanuric acid.
terrigena led to sharply and significantly increased
cyanuric acid production and kidney toxicity, compared with noncolonized rats.
Thermo Fisher Scientific have announced the availability of a method to detect melamine and
cyanuric acid in food matrices.
Several of the investigators in the study "Clinicopathologic, histologic, and toxicologic findings in 70 cats inadvertently exposed to pet food contaminated with melamine and
cyanuric acid" (JAVMA Vol.
Food additives contaminated with
cyanuric acid and melamine were responsible for recent deaths of many pets.
