We present continuum models to describe colloid release in the subsurface during transient physicochemical conditions. Our modeling approach relates the amount of colloid release to changes in the fraction of the solid surface area that contributes to retention. Equilibrium, kinetic, equilibrium and kinetic, and two-site kinetic models were developed to describe various rates of colloid release...

The purpose of present research work is to develop gastro retentive formulation for Moxifloxacin using various release retardants. Moxifloxacin, novel synthetic fluoro quinolone, antibacterial agent. Floating tablets of Moxifloxacin. HCl were prepared using variable amounts of HPMCK4M, HPMCK15M and HPMCK100M with effervescent mixtures by direct compression technique. Totally 9 formulations were...

Objective(s): Researchers have intended to reformulate drugs so that they may be more safely used in human body. Polymer science and nanotechnology have great roles in this field. The aim of this paper is to introduce an efficient drug delivery vehicle which can perform both targeted and controlled antibiotic release using magnetic nanoparticles grafted pH-responsive polymer.<s...

Arsenic mobility in pyrite ashes was studied because of the possible effects on water systems. The batch extraction method was used to assess kinetics and extent of As release induced by contact of the material either with rainwater or groundwater. Self-established pH-Eh range of pyrite ashes/water mixtures brought both As(III) and As(V) to be present in the water phase, as neutral arsenite H3A...

The decompositions of doubly-charged ions given by a number of C3 —C8 aliphatic and alicyclic hydrocarbons have been investigated in a double-focusing mass spectrometer. Many processes were found in which high kinetic energy CH3+ and C2H3+ ions are formed. Doubly-charged ions fragment by more than one route and in many cases, high kinetic energy fragment ions are formed in at least two differen...

Background & Aims of the Study: Since the chromium (VI) is a toxic, carcinogenic and non-biodegradable element and can accumulate in the tissues, the presence and release of this element through the effluents is associated with dangerous effects on life cycle. Thus, it should be removed from the effluents. In the present study, biosorption of Cr(VI) from aqueous solutio...

objective (s): mucoadhesive disc is one of the various routes of drug delivery for curing buccal disease.materials and methods:everydiscs containing 70 mg stem bark extract of ziziphus jujuba were formulated  by using carbopol 934, pvp k30 and gelatin as polymers. discs were made by granulation  and direct compression. discs were standardized based on the total phenol.  properties such as in vi...

Microencapsulation has become a common technique in the production of controlled release dosage forms. Many results have been reported, concerning the use of alginate beads as controlled release drug formulations. Alginate has a unique gel-forming property in the presence of multivalent cations, in an aqueous medium. Ibuprofen is an excellent analgesic and antipyretic, non-steroidal anti-inflam...
