a simple, sensitive and rapid method for determination of trace amounts of nitrite ion in real samples is reported. the reaction is initiated by adding known volumes of a nitrite ion solution of identified concentration to acidic solutions of thionine which causes decolorizaiton of reagent with time. the absorbance changes is then monitored spectrophotometrically at lmax = 602nm at 25 °c. calib...

BACKGROUND Septic shock is a common and often devastating syndrome marked by severe cardiovascular dysfunction commonly managed with vasopressors. Whether markers of heart rate complexity before vasopressor up-titration could be used to predict success of the up-titration is not known. METHODS We studied patients with septic shock requiring vasopressor, newly admitted to the intensive care un...

Zero, first and second order derivative spectrophotometric methods were developed for the determination of insulin. The standard solutions and pharmaceutical sample were prepared in 0.01 M HCl. Absorbences of insulin were measured at 276 nm for the zero order by measuring height of peak from zero, at 264, 277 and 284 nm for the first order and at 277, 280, 283 and 289 nm for second order deriva...

Objective: Garlic is a plant has been used as a flavor, and anti-microbial and anti-diarrheal agent. Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) is a coronavirus. The available vaccines against IBV cannot cover new variants. This study evaluated the inhibitory effects of garlic extract on IBV.  Materials and Methods: The constituents of garlic extract were detected by gas chromatography. This study was d...
