At rates consistent with current human exposure, phototoxicity and photosensitization were not observed. In animals, some MKs are sensitizers only at concentrations of 20%, 30%, or 100%, which are higher than current consumer exposure. No evidence of sensitization was observed in human tests. In patients with fragrance allergy, reactions were seen with cyclopentadecanone (3/178). Based on these findings, the Panel is of the opinion that there are no safety concerns for the MKs at reported levels of use and exposure as fragrance ingredients. Ó 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

  • B.Sc. Industrial Chemistry University of Delhi Page 1 of 1
    Preamble The objective of anyprogramme at Higher Education Institute is to prepare their students for the society at large. The University of Delhi envisions all its programmes in the best interest of their students and in this endeavour, it offers a new vision to all its Under-Graduate courses. It imbibes a Learning Outcome-based Curriculum Framework (LOCF) for all its Under Graduate programmes. The LOCF approach is envisioned to provide a focused, outcome-based syllabus at the undergraduate level with an agenda to structure the teaching-learning experiences in a more student-centric manner. The LOCF approach has been adopted to strengthen students’ experiences as they engage themselves in the programme of their choice. The Under-Graduate Programmes will prepare the students for both, academia and employability. Each programme vividly elaborates its nature and promises the outcomes that are to be accomplished by studying the courses. The programmes also state the attributes that it offers to inculcate at the graduation level. The graduate attributes encompass values related to well-being, emotional stability, critical thinking, social justice and also skills for employability. In short, each programme prepares students for sustainability and life-long learning. The new curriculum of B.Sc. (Prog.) with Industrial Chemistry offer courses in the areas of inorganic, organic, physical, materials, analytical and industrial chemistry. All the courses are having defined objectives and Learning Outcomes, which will help prospective students in choosing the elective courses to broaden their skills in the field of chemistry and interdisciplinary areas. The courses will train students with sound theoretical and experimental knowledge that suits the need of academics and industry.

  • The Chemistry of Smellable Molecules → Volatility?
    The chemistry of smellable molecules volatility? The chemical categories to which most odoriferous substances belong are : 1. Terpenes (= isoprenoides): e.g. Menthol, lemonene, thymol 2. Phenoles e.g. Coumarin, vanillin, heliotropin 3. Sulfuric compounds: e.g. Allyl isothiocyanate = volatile mustard oil 4. Amines e.g. Methylamine (dead fish) 5. Aldehydes e.g. Acetaldehyde (ripe fruits) benzaldehyde (bitter almond) 6. Esters & Lactones (cyclic esters) e.g. Allyl amyl glycolate (pineapple) 1. We smell only short molecules, large ones are no longer volatile and hence not odorous. 2. If molecule is very short, short is also its endurance, it will be a top note like e.g. dimethyl sulfide CSC – the transient smell of truffles 3. If a molecules carry a large net charges they will stick to each other and form hydrogen bonds. This prevents volatility. 4. Most olfactory molecules are made of C, H, O, N, S Perfumes – art, witchcraft or science? Perfumes are mixtures of raw materials: fragrant essential oils and other odorants, musk, fixatives, chemicals + solvents to give the human body, food, detergent, soap, juice, books etc pleasant smells. Why perfumes? Extracts from plants do not really smell like the real flowers but like a weak fake which might resemble but never match nature & original. The perfume maker therefore combines various raw materials to get something that resembles real flowers , or may even create some desirable fantasy smell The first perfume that used pure chemicals was in 1881Fougere Royal or Royal Fern by Parquet: it used lots of coumarin. Coumarin was used before but it was extracted from woodruff, vanilla leaf, & Tonka beans ($ 450/ kg), but not the pure, cheap chemical ($ 10/kg).
