Flavor compounds have been shown to interact with packaging materials either by scalping, the movement of flavorings from the food product to the package, or by flavor release, movement of flavorings from the package to the food. Work has elucidated the parameters important for the scalping of flavor compounds to polyolefin packaging materials, but very little work has been conducted examining ...

Liquids like gasoline comprise a mixture of hundreds of hydrocarbon components. Gas chromatography of these complex mixtures produces highly detailed chromatograms that are characteristic of a particular sample. Although many of the volatile components will be lost during the fire, sufficient less-volatile components may have been left in partially burned wood or other materials to enable the d...

Resistive switching (RS) and Resistive Random Access Memories (ReRAMs) that exploit it have attracted huge interests for next generation non volatile memory (NVM) applications, also thought to be able to overcome flash memories limitations when arranged in crossbar arrays. A cornerstone of their potential success is that the RS between two different resistive states, usually High (HRS, High res...

The aim of the present study was to increase the solubility of a poorly water soluble BCS class II drug, valsartan. Liquisolid technology and solid dispersion by kneading method were techniques used to improve the solubility of the drug by using non-volatile solvents and some hydrophilic carriers. Liquisolid compacts were prepared by dissolving the drug in suitable non volatile solvents. The va...

The purpose of this study is to develop a novel liquisolid technique to enhance the dissolution rate of poorly water soluble drug Carvedilol, a BCS class II drug, which is a β-blocker, by using different excipients. The main components of a liquisolid system are a non volatile solvent, carrier and coating materials and a disintegrant. Liquisolid system refers to the formulations that are formed...
