The necessity of anticoagulating the extracorporeal circuit (ECC) when applying continuous venovenous haemofiltration (CVVH) in critically ill patients, implicates an increased risk of bleeding complications when using unfractionated heparin or low molecular weight heparins, especially in patients at high risk of bleeding. Regional anticoagulation of the ECC using citratebased solutions has eme...

The human chloride intracellular channel protein CLIC4 has been crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique using trisodium citrate as the precipitant. The best crystals were obtained by the microseeding method. The crystals diffracted to 2.2 A resolution and were found to belong to space group P121, with unit-cell parameters a = 73.19, b =86.05, c = 73.38 A, beta = 112.99 degre...

BACKGROUND There is ongoing controversy concerning optimum anticoagulation and buffering in continuous venovenous haemofiltration (CVVH). Regional anticoagulation with trisodium citrate also acting as a buffer in the replacement fluid has several advantages and disadvantages over prefilter citrate administration alone. We analysed a large cohort of patients with acute kidney injury (AKI) treate...

Isolation and identification of thermophilic Bacillus sp was carried out from soil samples of a tannery area. The isolate KCPSS-3, when cultivated in liquid cultures containing trisodium citrate, produced protease. The production reached a maximum in 9 h, with levels of 2.15 U/mg protein. The microorganism utilized several carbon sources for the production of protease. Starch was found to be th...

In this research work, copper (Cu), palladium (Pd) and their bimetallic palladium@ copper (Pd@Cu) nanoparticles were synthesized using trisodium citrate as a stabilizing agent using the known chemical reduction method. The synthesized Cu, Pd and Pd@Cu nanoparticles were characterized by the ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, respec...

Constructing hierarchical and ultrathin-structured metal sulfides is beneficial for achieving high-efficiency hydrogen evolution catalysts. Herein, ZnIn2S4 (ZIS) hollow nanoflowers (HNFs) composed of ultrathin nanosheets are creatively synthesized via a facile trisodium citrate-mediated stirring-assisted solvothermal method. Experimental results reveal that the synergy effect ethanol, citrate, ...

BACKGROUND The synthesis of anisotropic silver nanoparticles is a time-consuming process and involves the use of expensive toxic chemicals and specialized laboratory equipment. The presence of toxic chemicals in the prepared anisotropic silver nanostructures hindered their medical application. The authors have developed a fast and inexpensive method for the synthesis of three-dimensional hollow...
