gabapentin is an anticonvulsant widely used in the treatment of epilepsy.an accurate and validated spectrophotometric method was developed as an alternative method to determine gabapentin in pharmaceutical products. this is a simple, accurate, precise, selective and visible spectrophotometric method. the method is based on the measurement of drug absorbance as a result of yellow solution format...

Background: Woodfordia fruticosa is used traditionally as antidysenteric compound for fodder animals. Stem and flower extracts are previously flourished for their antibacterial activity. Leaves are also equally important, which are preliminary screened for their bioactive components in present study. Objective: Evaluation of antibacterial activity of leaves of W. fruticosa and detection of the...

BACKGROUND Ketogenic diets are used therapeutically to treat intractable seizures. Clinically, it appears that the maintenance of ketosis is crucial to the efficacy of the diet in ameliorating seizures. To understand how ketosis and seizure protection are related, a reliable, noninvasive measure of ketosis that can be performed frequently with minimal discomfort is needed. OBJECTIVE The objec...

Hydrogen bonds formed between C-H and various hydrogen bond acceptors play important roles in the structure of proteins and organic crystals, and the mechanisms of C-H bond cleavage reactions. Chloroform, a C-H hydrogen bond donor, can form weak hydrogen-bonded complexes with acetone and with dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). When chloroform is dissolved in a mixed solvent consisting of acetone and DMS...

LEGAL first showed that Weyl's reaction for creatinin was also given by acetone. The reaction consists in the addition of a few drops of a 5 0/0 solution of sodium nitro-prusside, followed by 1 0/0 sodium hydrate. A red colour is produced both with acetone and creatinin solutions. Le Nobel' elaborated the test by showing in the case of acetone that acidifyinog with acetic acid changed the red t...

BACKGROUND Acetone, one of the principal ketone bodies elevated during treatment with the ketogenic diet, exhibits anticonvulsant properties that may contribute to the seizure protection conferred by the diet. The anticonvulsant mechanism of acetone is unknown, but it is metabolized to several bioactive substances that could play a role. METHODS Acetone and its major metabolites-acetol, 1,2-p...

Two solvated cobalt(ii) terpyridine complexes, [Co(MeO-terpy)2](BF4)2·H2O (·H2O) and [Co(MeO-terpy)2](BF4)2·acetone (·acetone) were prepared. Annealing each of these complexes resulted in the formation of two desolvated species, and , respectively. ·H2O and exhibited two-step and gradual SCO. The compound ·acetone has high-spin at all temperatures and undergoes a reverse spin transition due to ...

The aim of the present research is to convert bioinert surface of NiTi to bioactive and biocompatible surface. In order to develop a bioactive and corrosion resistant film on NiTi, electrophoretic deposition process was done and TiO2 particles were deposited on the NiTi surface. Suspensions including TiO2 particles were prepared using a mixture of acetone and n-butanol (0%, 30%, 60%, 80% and 10...
