Compositional dependency on dissolution rate and cytocompatibility of phosphate-based glasses: Effect of B2O3 and Fe2O3 addition

The unique property of phosphate-based glasses and fibres to be completely dissolved in aqueous media is largely dependent on the glass composition. This article focuses on investigating the effect of replacing Na2O with 3 and 5 mol% Fe2O3 on cytocompatibility, thermal and dissolution properties of P2O5-CaO-Na2O-MgO-B2O3 glass system, where P2O5 content was fixed at 45 mol%. The effect of incre...

On Disintegration and Dissolution Behaviors of Paracetamol Tablet Formulations

mulation and in many cases the bioavailability of drug from tablets has received considerable attention. As part of the efforts to reach international harmonization of pharmaceutical excipients, the Joint Conference on Excipients identified starch as one of the top 10 excipients (1). Starch is a multipurpose excipient in tablet formulation, and it is used as a binder, disintegrant, and filler (...

Abiotic carbonate dissolution traps carbon in a semiarid desert.

It is generally considered that desert ecosystems release CO2 to the atmosphere, but recent studies in drylands have shown that the soil can absorb CO2 abiotically. However, the mechanisms and exact location of abiotic carbon absorption remain unclear. Here, we used soil sterilization, (13)CO2 addition, and detection methods to trace (13)C in the soil of the Mu Us Desert, northern China. After ...

Carbon dioxide dissolution in structural and stratigraphic traps

The MIT Faculty has made this article openly available. Please share how this access benefits you. Your story matters. 8 The geologic sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO 2) in structural and stratigraphic 9 traps is a viable option to reduce anthropogenic emissions. While dissolution of the 10 CO 2 stored in these traps reduces the long-term leakage risk, the dissolution process 11 remains poor...
