The mixed micellization behaviour of amitriptyline hydrochloride (AMT) with ionic liquid (IL) 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium hydrochloride, [C8mim][Cl], have been investigated using electrical conductivity, at different temperatures. The non-ideal behaviour (i.e., synergistic interaction) of AMT-[C8mim][Cl] binary mixtures, explained by the deviations in critical micelle concentration (cmc) from i...

This article examines the relationships between interaction (product) terms and curvilinear (quadratic) terms in regression models in which the independent variables are correlated. The author uses 2 substantive examples to demonstrate the following outcomes: (a) If the appropriate quadratic terms are not added to the estimated model, then the observed interaction may indicate a synergistic (of...

Herein, we report multi-element doped Type-II heterostructure assembly consists of N, S doped TiO2 and ZnO for electrochemical crystal violet dye degradation studies. Electrochemical measurements were performed on these synthesized N-S codoped TiO2/ZnO compositeheterostructured assemblies which are fabricated on Titanium (Ti) substrate. It was observed that a composite ele...

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to determine the synergistic activity of amikacin/ertapenem, fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin and levofloxacin)/ertapenem and amikacin/fluoroquinolones combinations against resistant nosocomial pathogens. METHODS Time-kill studies were performed over 24 hours using an inoculum of 5 x 10(6) - 1 x 10(7) cfu/mL. Antibiotics were tested at the 1 x MIC and 4 ...
