A novel and effective electrochemical sensor for the determination of morphine (MO) in 0.04 mol L(-1) universal buffer solution (pH 7.4) is introduced using gold nanoparticles electrodeposited on a Nafion modified carbon paste electrode. The effect of various experimental parameters including pH, scan rate and accumulation time on the voltammetric response of MO was investigated. At the optimum...

Background: Liposomes constitute a promising drug delivery vehicle, and are believed to improve drugs’ effectiveness. This study was aimed to compare antihypertensive and vascular modifying activities of liposomal and non-liposomal forms of ascorbic acid. Methods: Forty-nine male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into seven groups (n=7): A sham vehicle-receiving (Sham-veh), hypert...

Previous studies showed that the intact carbon chain of glucose can serve as a precursor for the synthesis of ascorbic acid in the rat (l-3). Evidence for such a precursor relationship came from experiments in which glucose tracers labeled in carbon 1 and carbon 6 were administered to rats, and the L-ascorbic acid isolated from urine was labeled predominantly in carbon 6 and carbon 1, respectiv...

Exfoliated graphite electrodes have been used to detect uric acid at neutral pHs, by following its oxidation. A linear range of 5 ± 53 M and a detection limit of 5 M are observed at a pH of 7.0. Uric acid was found to be selectively adsorbed on exfoliated graphite surface in the presence of excess ascorbic acid. This leads to its selective determination in the presence of ascorbic acid. Simulta...

     Osteoporosis is a silent epidemy of today's world, and is also a prevalent problem of health in Iran. The role of nutrients such as ascorbic acid, a key antioxidant vitamin, in this disease has recently attracted researchers' attention. In this study, we studied the relation between plasma ascorbic acid concentration and bone mineral density (BMD) in women referring to Jami clinic, Tehran,...

ABSTRACT. The present work was aimed to determine the contents of ascorbic acid and antioxidant activity eight types common fruits commercially available in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia using iodometric titration UV-Vis spectrophotometric methods, respectively. were found range 15.41 mg/100 g grapes 78.01 papaya. highest papaya (89.41) lowest water melon (31.28) mg equivalent per 100 edible part fruit...
