BACKGROUND The European Union prohibits the use of chloramphenicol (CAP) as a veterinary drug in food-producing animals. Nevertheless, CAP have been detected in milk products (liquid milk and milk powder). Therefore, it is necessary to develop sensitive methods for determining CAP residues in milk powder. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to develop and validate a confirmatory method for de...

A fast, practical ambient extraction methodology followed by isocratic liquid chromatography (LC) analysis with UV detection was validated for the determination of berberine, hydrastine, and canadine in goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis L.) root powder. The method was also validated for palmatine, a major alkaloid present in the possible bioadulterants Coptis, Oregon grape root, and barberry bar...

A novel single punch tablet machine was developed for a tiny amount of powder sample. This tablet machine mainly consists of upper and lower punches, single die, and conical powder feeder equipped with micro-vibrators. By using the powder feeder, mass of discharged powder can be maintained constant even if a tiny amount of powder having poor flowability is used. Motions of both upper and lower ...

In this research, we assessed the influence of an ultrafine 2CaO·SiO₂ powder on the hydration properties of a reactive powder concrete system. The ultrafine powder was manufactured through chemical combustion method. The morphology of ultrafine powder and the development of hydration products in the cement paste prepared with ultrafine powder were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (S...

objective(s): cao–mgo–sio2 system bioceramics possess good characteristics for hard tissue engineering applications. the aim of the study was to synthesize the nano powder by using a sol-gel method and evaluate of bioactivity in the cells culture. methods: to characterize of powder x-ray diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microscopy (tem) and to evaluate the bioactivity sample cell seedin...

in this study, aluminium2024- graphite composites containing 5, 10, 15 and 20 weight percent of graphite were produced by solid assisted melt disintegration (samd) technique which resulted in production of al/gr powder mixtures which subsequently consolidated and sintered for preparation of al/gr composites. in this technique, powder mixture was prepared by addition of flake graphite (mean diam...
