Recently there has been much controversy over alkaline hydrolysis as a method of body disposal.

It also depends on the compound's susceptibility to alkaline hydrolysis.

Alkaline hydrolysis is an analytical method used in chemistry.

Resomation involves disposal through an accelerated process of alkaline hydrolysis.

In alkali: The drug was found to be highly labile to alkaline hydrolysis.

Lipids were subjected to mild alkaline hydrolysis and dried under nitrogen gas.

Alkaline hydrolysis is one such method.

Her thesis was "The alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl p-alkybenzoates."

Soluene is noted for its ability to dissolve many difficult organic substances such as hair, by the action of alkaline hydrolysis.

Alkaline hydrolysis or similar cleavage yields a thiophenol (5).

The scientific term is "alkaline hydrolysis".

Alkyl acyl glycerophosphocholine were measured after alkaline hydrolysis and subsequent acetylation.

Varying DA was obtained using acetic anhydride or alkaline hydrolysis.

Alkaline hydrolysis is a process for the disposal of human remains, which its creator states is more ecologically favorable than cremation.

In the alkaline hydrolysis disposal process, the body is placed in a silk bag, itself placed within a metal cage frame.

In Minnesota, Mayo Clinic uses an alkaline hydrolysis process to dispose of donated bodies.

Alkaline hydrolysis was patented in the US by Amos Herbert in 1888.

Alkaline hydrolysis as a method of final disposition of human remains is currently legal in seven states, including Florida, Maine, Minnesota and Oregon.

Gallic acid is the main constituent of tara tannins (53%) and can be easily isolated by alkaline hydrolysis of the plant extract.

Alkaline hydrolysis experiments show that the most of the phenolic acids are present as bound forms and only a small portion can be detected as free compounds.

The second type includes the class of S2 (nucleophilic substitution bimolecular) reactions, such as the alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetate:

The latter was oxidized with nitric acid to form dimethyl 2,5-furandicarboxylate, which, after the alkaline hydrolysis gave FDCA in 50% yield.

According to the first, 4-chlorobenzaldehyde is condensed with two moles of acetoacetic ester, giving the product, which initially undergoes alkaline hydrolysis and decarboxylation forming 3-(4-chlorphenyl)glutaric acid.

The amount of alkyl acyl glycerophosphocholine was calculated as the difference between the levels of platelet activating factor measured before and after alkaline hydrolysis and acetylation.

Alkaline drain openers can dissolve hair (containing proteins) and fats inside pipes via alkaline hydrolysis of amide and ester respectively:

Resomation involves disposal through an accelerated process of alkaline hydrolysis.

In mortuary usage, the process is called "water reduction" "resomation" or "aquamation".

New methods in development include Promession, Resomation, and the mushroom death suit by Infinity Burial Project.

Resomation Ltd. is 65% owned by The Co-operative Group, who also own the largest funeral home business in the UK.

Modern cremation techniques such as resomation are an additional source of controversy, as the liquified human remains are mixed in sewage sludge and deposited on farm fields to grow human food.

Two main methods have been introduced for human remains, the main difference is in the temperatures the units operate at; resomation works at 180 degrees C, and aquamation at 93 degrees C.

Most sources cite the British company "Resomation Limited" as the driving force behind the procedure; the company has a pending patent on the procedure and owns the international trademark on the word "Resomator".

For example, in a process commonly referred to as "chemical cremation" or "resomation", potassium hydroxide hastens the decomposition of soft tissues, both animal and human, to leave behind only the bones and other hard tissues.
