A rapid and sensitive high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection method was developed and validated for the quantification of paracetamol, chlorzoxazone and aceclofenac in dosage forms. The chromatographic separation was carried out on a Phenomenex Luna C18 column using a mixture of acetonitrile-0.05M disodium hydrogen orthophosphate (65:35) (pH adjusted to 3.0 using 10% orthophos...

An aqueous normal phase HPLC method coupled with UV or ESI/MS detection was used for the determination of a wide variety of nucleotides, essential in metabolomics studies. Fifteen nucleotides were tested in clinically relevant mixtures at levels of 100 microg/mL for UV detection and 1 microg/mL for ESI-MS detection. Analysis times for all protocols developed were less than 20 min. The chromatog...

Polycrystalline ZnO : Cu-based film photodetectors with extended detection waveband (UV and visible light) were fabricated using facile colloidal chemistry and a post-annealing process. The obtained detectors are highly sensitive to visible light and can realize the response switch between UV and visible light. A native and extrinsic trap cooperatively controlled space charge limited (SCL) tran...

Spectrophotometric and microspectrophotometric measures of relative spectral transmission were obtained from the cornea, lens, and vitreous body and from the whole eye of young and adult pigeons. Transmission was above 90% throughout the visible spectrum and was maintained at or above 50% into the near-UV at 310 nm. No age-related changes in transmission were found. The results concur with the ...

The mammalian visual range is approximately 400-700 nm, although recent evidence suggests varying ultraviolet (UV) extensions in diverse terrestrial species. UV sensitivity may have advantages in the dim, blue light shifted environment experienced by submerged marine mammals. It may also be advantageous when seals are on land as UV is reflected by snow and ice but absorbed by fur, enhancing vis...

Whereas humans have three types of cone photoreceptor, birds have four types of single cones and, unlike humans, are sensitive to ultraviolet light (UV, 320-400 nm). Most birds are thought to have either a violet-sensitive single cone that has some sensitivity to UV wavelengths (for example, many non-passerine species) or a single cone that has maximum sensitivity to UV (for example, oscine pas...

background and objectives:drimia maritima (l.) stearn also known as squill is a medicinally important plant that has been used for various ailments such as dropsy, respiratory disorders, jaundice and epilepsy from ancient times. proscillaridin a is identified as one of the most effective compounds in the plant with remarkable pharmacological features including efficacy against congestive heart ...

Macromolecules including condensed tannins and polysaccharides impact wine taste especially astringency. Asymmetrical Flow-Field-Flow-Fractionation (AF4) coupled to UV detection (UV), multi-angle light scattering (MALS) refractive index (dRI) has been proposed separate red colloids. The present work aimed at relating AF4-mutidetection profiles with Fifty commercial wines characterized by a trai...

a sensitive and selective method using combination of principal component analysis (pca), artificial neural network (ann) and uv-visible spectroscopy has been developed for the simultaneous determination of acetaminophen (amp) and codeine (cod) in plasma samples. the ann trained by the back-propagation learning was employed to model the complex non-linear relationship between the pcs extracted ...
