Polycaprolactone, a thermoplastic aliphatic polyester, is reportedly susceptible to both alkaline and enzymatic hydrolyzes. This screening study examined the susceptibility of Resilon, a polycaprolactone-based root filling composite, to alkaline hydrolysis. There were 15-mm diameter disks of Resilon and Obtura gutta-percha

Glutathione conjugate formation plays important roles in the detoxification and bioactivation of xenobiotics. A range of nephrotoxic haloalkenes undergo bioactivation that involves glutathione and cysteine S-conjugate formation. The cysteine S-conjugates thus formed may undergo cysteine conjugate beta-lyase-catalyzed biotransformation to form
