Ethylene - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene ) is the chemical compound with the formula C 2 H 4 . It is the simplest alkene. Because it contains a carbon-carbon double bond, ethylene is called an unsaturated...

Ethylene was used medically as a anesthetic in concentrations significantly greater than that found in a ripening room. However, ethylene is often targeted as the reason for difficulty in breathing ... The source of the ethylene used is ethanol i.e. alchohol most of which is produced by fermentation of fruit and vegetables.

Poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was used as emulsifier to prepare alpha-chymotrypsin-loaded poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) microspheres by a solid-in-oil-in-water (s/o/w) technique. ... The effect of the molecular weight of PEG on protein stability was assessed by the determination of the amount of insoluble aggregates,

Active carbon, betonite, silica gel and a mixture of active carbon and bentonite, were used to absorb ethylene in a hermetical package model, ethylene gas (0.1-10 ppm) was then introduced to fulfill the package. The absorption and de-sorption was conducted by placing package model at refrigeration and oven.
