two rapid, simple, sensitive and cost-effective titrimetric and spectr-ophotometric methods are described for the determination of albendazole (alb) in bulk drug and in pharmaceuticals. in titrimetry (method a), alb is oxidized by a known excess of potassium permanganate (kmno 4 ) in h 2 so 4 medium followed by the determination of unreacted permanganate by titration with ferrous ammonium sulph...

nanostructured ceo2 powders were synthesized via a series of hydrothermal and solution precipitation methods. three different hydrothermal methods including 1:2 and 1:1 bi:ce molar ratios at 180 °c for 48 h (s1 and s2, respectively) without calcinations and 2:1 bi:ce molar ratio at 180 °c for 48 h with calcinations (s3) were performed successfully for the synthesis of the target nanomaterials. ...

It has been demonstrated that healthy centenarians have more favorable anthropometric characteristics and insulin-mediated glucose uptake than aged subjects. The plasma insulin-like-growth factor I (IGF-I) concentration may account for such differences. Three groups of subjects were studied: 1) adults (< 50 yr; n = 30), 2) aged subjects (75-99 yr; n = 30), 3) centenarians (> 100 yr; n = 19). In...

According to the unique properties and many applications of nano gold powder, it was prepared from an acid leaching tail solution. The low value residual gold ions existed in acid leaching tail solution in Mouteh gold mine in Iran with fellow heavy metals as pollutants (Fe2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+). Preparation of nano gold particles is achieved by two steps: First, by addition of ammonia as separatio...

The purpose of this research work was to investigate the optimum operating conditions for biodiesel production from castor oil using a microwave. The Box–Behnken design of experiment was carried out using the Design Expert 7. A response surface methodology (RSM) was used to analyze the influence of the process variables (molar ratio of methanol to castor oil, catalyst concentration, reaction ti...

an approach to recycle precious metals of cathode materials from spent lithium cobalt oxide batteries by using organic citric acid and hydrogen peroxide has been studied in this paper. the effects of molar ratio, solid-liquid ratio, reaction time and temperature on leaching efficiency of cobalt were investigated respectively. meanwhile the leaching kinetics equation of cobalt was established, a...

Biodiesel is a renewable liquid fuel that can be produced by a transesterification reaction between a vegetable oil and an alcohol. This paper evaluates and optimizes the production of ethyl esters (biodiesel) from soybean oil and ethanol. The reaction was carried out by applying ultrasound under atmospheric pressure and ambient temperature. Response surface methodology was used to evaluate the...

In this essay, lipase from Burkholderia cepacia was immobilized into 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and tetramethoxysilane (TMOS) derived sol-gels. GPTMS:TMOS molar ratio of 1:3 was found to yield the best result. The morphological characteristics were investigated based on SEM and BET analysis. Sample mean pore diameter was 39.1 nm, it had a specific surface area of 60 m2/g prior to...

In this study, the complexation reaction between Alprazolam (ALP) and metal ions (Zn2+, Ni2+, Cu2+ and Co2+) was investigated by using spectrophotometry in ethanol solvent. The stoichiometry of M+/ALP complexes was calculated by applying the Job, molar ratio and Continuous Changes methods and the relevant diagrams were plotted for each metal ions in each method. The results show that the obtain...
