TL;DR: A field evaluation of SCD-AMPS in a large case-control study in Zambia found the best system was 84% (62–94%) sensitive in detecting SCD in children between 6 months and 1 year old, and health workers rated the tests to be as simple to use as lateral flow tests for malaria and HIV.

Selective Reduction of Disulfides by Tris(2‐carboxyethyl)phosphine.
TL;DR: Their utility has been limited by the low solubility of most simple trialkylphosphines in water, and their acceptability as reagents by the odor and ease of autoxidation of many species with low molecular weights.

Heterogeneous reductions of (diolefin)dialkylplatinum(II) complexes on platinum black in ethyl alcohol : kinetics, isotopic interchange of hydrogen between coadsorbed surface alkyls, and comparison of surface alkyls generated from the platinum complexes and from olefins
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the heterogeneous hydrogenations of (diolefin) dialkylplatinum (II) complexes (DO) PtR 2 ) catalyzed by platinum black in ethyl alcohol.
