We report the case of a patient who had development of ventricular fibrillation following rapid intravenous administration of magnesium sulfate (2 g over 5 s) for treatment of sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia. Initial slowing of the tachycardia was followed by gradual widening of QRS complexes and electrical alternans, leading to ventricular fibrillation within 3 min of magnesium a...

Liquid-assisted grinding allows the rapid, waste-free and one-pot synthesis of a variety of magnesium drug derivatives directly from the excipient MgO; such reactivity is relevant for the behaviour of ibuprofen formulations involving MgO and can be used for oxide-based mechanosynthesis of metal-organic salts, discrete complexes and carboxylate clusters involving magnesium and pharmaceutically a...

The presence and concentration of mineral nutrients and organic acids were analyzed in root xylem sap of mature beech trees (Fagus sylvatica L.). An interdependence between malate concentration, pH, and calcium and magnesium concentrations was observed. Significant correlations were found between low pH values and high calcium and magnesium concentrations, low pH values and high malate concentr...

Three novel indole-based ligand precursors [HIndPh(R), R = methoxy, HIndPh(OMe) (); thiomethoxy, HIndPh(SMe) (); and N,N'-dimethylamino, HIndPh(NMe2) ()] have been synthesized via Sonogashira and cyclization reactions with moderate to high yield. Reactions of these ligand precursors with 0.6 equivalent of Mg(n)Bu2 in THF afforded the magnesium bis-indolyl complexes , respectively. All the ligan...

The cationic magnesium moiety of magnesium organohaloaluminate complexes, relevant to rechargeable Mg battery electrolytes, typically takes the thermodynamically favourable dinuclear [Mg2Cl3](+) form in the solid-state. We now report that judicious choice of Lewis donor allows the deliberate synthesis and isolation of the hitherto only postulated mononuclear [MgCl](+) and trinuclear [Mg3Cl5](+)...

The objective of the present study was to investigate the use of propranolol-magnesium aluminium silicate intercalated complexes as drug reservoirs in hydroxypropylmethylcellulose tablets. The matrix tablets containing the complexes were prepared and characterised with respect to propranolol release and were subsequently compared with those loading propranolol or a propranolol-magnesium alumini...

1,3,6,8-Tetra-tert-butylcarbazol-9-yl and 1,8-diaryl-3,6-di(tert-butyl)carbazol-9-yl ligands have been utilized in the synthesis of potassium and magnesium complexes. The potassium complexes (1,3,6,8-tBu4carb)K(THF)4 (1; carb = C12H4N), [(1,8-Xyl2-3,6-tBu2carb)K(THF)]2 (2; Xyl = 3,5-Me2C6H3) and (1,8-Mes2-3,6-tBu2carb)K(THF)2 (3; Mes = 2,4,6-Me3C6H2) were reacted with MgI2 to give the Hauser ba...

Magnesium complexes based on sodium polygalacturonate and pectinate were prepared characterized. The conditions of complex formation optimized the immunomodulatory activity was studied in vivo for first time. pectin with magnesium ions decrease immunosuppressive effect cyclophosphamide cytostatic, associated a number immune cells blood (leukopenia) after administration cyclophosphamide, promote...
