The major objectives of this study were to monitor the effect of cross-linking of cationic chitosan in acidic media with sulfate anion during granules preparation by wet granulation method prior to tableting using theophylline (TPH) as a model drug. The prepared granules and the compressed tablets were subjected to in vitro evaluation. The properties of the prepared matrix granules and the comp...

After the publication of the work entitled “Dermatan sulfate in tunicate phylogeny: Order-specific sulfation pattern and the effect of [®4IdoA(2-Sulfate)b-1®3GalNAc(4-Sulfate)b-1®] motifs in dermatan sulfate on heparin cofactor II activity”, by Kozlowski et al., BMC Biochemistry 2011, 12:29, we found that the legends to Figures 2 to 5 contain serious mistakes that compromise the comprehension o...

DESCRIPTION levatol® (penbutolol sulfate) is a synthetic ß-receptor antagonist for oral administration. The chemical name of penbutolol sulfate is (S)-1-tert-butylamino-3-(o-cyclopentylphenoxy)-2­ propanol sulfate. It is provided as the levorotatory isomer. The empirical formula for penbutolol sulfate is C36H60N2O8S. Its molecular weight is 680.94. A dose of 20 mg is equivalent to 29.4 μmol. Th...

in order to study the effects of manganese sulfate in increasing seed yield of four safflower genotypes (carthamus tinctorius) under rainfed conditions, this experiment carried out in maragheh agricultural research station. the experiment was arranged with four mn fertilizer levels (0,10,20,30 kg ha-1) as soil application together with two foliar spray levels (1% and 2%) of 1.5 kg ha-1 manganes...

The fine structure of acharan sulfate, a recently discovered glycosaminoglycan isolated from Achatina fulica , was examined. This glycosaminoglycan has a major disaccharide repeating unit of -->4)-alpha-D-GlcNpAc(1-->4)-alpha-L-IdoAp2S(1--> (where GlcNpAc is N -acetylglucosamine, IdoAp is iduronic acid, and S is sulfate) making it structurally related to both heparin and heparan sulfate. Using ...

Tetrachloroethene (PCE) dehalorespiration was investigated in a continuous coculture of the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfovibrio fructosivorans and the dehalorespiring Desulfitobacterium frappieri TCE1 at different sulfate concentrations and in the absence of sulfate. Fructose (2.5 mM) was the single electron donor, which could be used only by the sulfate reducer. With 2.5 mM sulfate, the d...
