Summary. Liver and liver–sodium sulfide mixtures, sheep faeces, urine and gut mucus are known attractants for the sheep blowfly Lucilia cuprina (Weid.). These substances were analysed for volatile compounds using gas chromatography coupled with mass spectroscopy. The most commonly detected compounds were tested in a bioassay for their potential as attractants for gravid female L. cuprina. Flies orientated towards pulses of dimethyl sulfide at a concentration of 1 µg/g but not 0.1 or 10 µg/g. Ethane thiol elicited a response at a concentration of 10 µg/g but not at 1 µg/g. Dimethyl disulfide did not elicit orientation at 10 µg/g.

Praseodymium (Pr)-promoted MCM-41 catalyst was investigated for the catalytic decomposition of methyl mercaptan (CH3SH). Various characterization techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), N2 adsorption–desorption, temperature-programmed desorption of ammonia (NH3-TPD) and carbon dioxide (CO2-TPD), hydrogen temperature-programmed reduction (H2-TPR), and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer (XPS), were carried out to analyze the physicochemical properties of material. XPS characterization results showed that praseodymium was presented on the modified catalyst in the form of praseodymium oxide species, which can react with coke deposit to prolong the catalytic stability until 120 h. Meanwhile, the strong acid sites were proved to be the main active center over the 10% Pr/MCM-41 catalyst by NH3-TPD results during the catalytic elimination of methyl mercaptan. The possible reaction mechanism was proposed by analyzing the product distribution results. The final products were mainly small-molecule products, such as methane (CH4) and hydrogen sulfide (H2S). Dimethyl sulfide (CH3SCH3) was a reaction intermediate during the reaction. Therefore, this work contributes to the understanding of the reaction process of catalytic decomposition methyl mercaptan and the design of anti-carbon deposition catalysts.

Pseudomonas fluorescens, Proteus vulgaris, and Serratia marcescens, members of the microflora of soil and waste water, attacked methionine in the presence of glucose. The sulfur of methionine was released as methane thiol, dimethyl sulfide and dim ethyl disulfide. The volatile sulfur com pounds were qualitatively and quantitatively investigated by gas chromatography. Dimethyl disulfide was formed of methane thiol by various bacteria to a different extent. Growing in the presence of oxygen, S. marcescens oxidized most of the m ethane thiol to dim ethyl disulfide. In the presence of glucose. P. fluorescens dissimilated m ethionine with production of m ethane thiol and dimethyl disulfide. The dissimilation was stimulated with decreasing glucose concentration
