Sodium carboxymethyl starch (CMS) was prepared using an extruder as a continuous solvent-less chemical reactor. The effects of NaOH, H2O, temperature, ethanol, sodium mono chloro acetate (SMCA), sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), citric acid, epichlorohydrin and screw configuration on the degree of substitution (DS) and swelling properties of CMS were studied. Using these factors, CMS with the DS ...

The Intracellular Na(+) concentration in the halotolerant alga Dunaliella salina was measured in intact cells by (23)Na-NMR spectroscopy, utilizing the dysprosium tripolyphosphate complex as a sodium shift reagent, and was found to be 88 +/- 28 millimolar. Intracellular sodium ion content and intracellular volume were the same, within the experimental error, in cells adapted to grow in media co...

Tripolyphosphate conversion coatings are promising due to the active type of anti-corrosion protection. However, be introduced into production, it is necessary optimize technology tripolyphosphate coating deposition. Coatings were deposited samples st05kp cold-rolled sheet steel (analogs G10050, G10060, 1CR, 2CR, D6-2, DG-2) from aqueous solutions sodium (4 %, 6 10 12 14 %) at t=80 °C by dip an...

bioedegradable nanoparticles are intensively investigated for their potential applications in drug delivery systems. being a biocompatible and biodegradable polymer, chitosan holds great promise for use in this area. this investigation was concerned with determination and optimization of the effective parameters involved in the production of chitosan nanoparticles using ionic gelation method. s...

The present study examined the effects of chitosan (Ch) and chitosan combined with sodium tripolyphosphate (Nch) nanoparticles as coating materials for Cynoglossus arel fillets during superchilling storage. Treatments included the following: C (untreated, control samples), AC (treated with 1% glacial acetic acid, acid control), Ch (treated with 2% w/v chitosan solution, Chitosan) and Nch (treat...
