Examples of cyanide

• A cyanide will become decomposed and eliminate nitrogen gas, while the residue is charred. 

• Place one ounce of cyanide of potassium into the bottle and pour in enough dry sawdust to cover the lumps of poison. 

• Then, opening the clip, run through more cyanide solution and then water, so as to wash the gold-carrying liquor thoroughly into the beaker. 

• There is no hot water, no sterilising, no cyanide gauze even, but iodine saves many lives, and we have plenty of it. 

• When tested by cyanide of potassium the gold in the ore often changes into iron pyrites. 

• Both enzymes were insensitive to cyanide but sensitive to hydrogen peroxide, properties characteristic of iron-containing superoxide dismutase.

• Cyanogenesis in animal-plant interactions: cyanide compounds in biology.

• We propose that double metal cyanides might have acted as an important prebiotic catalyst.

• Evidence that reduction of the nitroprusside anion and cyanide loss are required.

• These compounds are hydrogen cyanide and formaldehyde, acting as precursors of complex biochemical substances.

• Amongst these were those that affect cytochrome oxidase, viz. carbon monoxide, potassium cyanide, sodium azide, hydroxylamine, and hydrogen sulphide.

• Ex hypothesi, he cannot know this through having seen an agent give another cyanide for this purpose.

• In the writer's opinion these stand pre-eminent among the fumigants, although hydrocyanic acid possesses the higher lethal effect, whether evolved by the liquid method or by exposing calcium cyanide.

• And about 20 percent worked on the surface, where the ore was crushed and the gold separated, at first in mercury amalgam and after 1894 by the cyanide process.

• Having exhausted all legal options, he finally orchestrated an intricate plan that culminated in a glass of cyanide and a straw within reach of his mouth.

• Hence, the observed reduction in glycogen during incubation of miracidia in the presence of cyanide does not correlate with an active carbohydrate metabolism.

• However, the glycogen present in miracidia after incubation with cyanide is likely to be hydrolysed to glucose units by uncontrolled glycogen phosphorylase activity after the death of the miracidia.

• The freezing points of hydrogen cyanide-water mixtures.

• Cyanide is an inhibitor of cytochrome oxidase and known to react specifically with cytochrome a3, the terminal carrier of the chain.

• There were a number of subsidiary issues, including a passing reference to the dumping of drums of cyanide.
