The goal of the present work was to study the influence of the swelling of chitosan derivatives on the enantioseparation and the separation performance recovery of chiral stationary phases (CSPs) based on these derivatives. Therefore, six chitosan bis(phenylcarbamate)-(n-octyl urea)s were synthesized, which were coated on macroporous 3-aminopropyl silica gel affording new CSPs. Most of the CSPs...

A simple triethoxysilane appended bis(urea) low molecular weight gelator (LMWG) affords strong gels in organic solvents that are susceptible to fine tuning by anion binding, while the gel structure can be rigidified into a porous hybrid polymer material by hydrolysis of the triethoxysilane end groups.

PURPOSE To define a method of stabilizing stones during extracorporeal (SWL) and intracorporeal lithotripsy with a thermosensitive polymer. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using a thermosensitive polymer that is either a liquid or a gel, depending on the temperature, both calcium oxalate and plaster of Paris phantom stones were placed in the polymer gel or saline, and SWL was performed. Comparisons wer...

Lignocellulosic fibers have received much more attention than ever before from the research community all over the world during the past few years because of their enormous advantages. A study on the preparation of new series of polymer composites using Pine Needles as a reinforcing material in Urea Formaldehyde resin has been made. Mechanical properties of intimately mixed particle reinforced ...

Cefpodoxime Proxetil (Poorly water soluble drug), when prepared as solid dispersion showed improved solubility and dissolution. So the main purpose of this investigation was to increase the solubility and dissolution rate of Cefpodoxime Proxetil by the preparation of its solid dispersion with urea using solvent evaporation method. Physical mixtures and solid dispersions of Cefpodoxime Proxetil ...

A poly (dA, [2-14C]dT) copolymer has been synthesized using terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase. Treatment of the polydeoxyribonucleotide with potassium permanganate converts the thymine residues to urea and N-substituted urea derivatives, while the adenine residues are resistant to oxidation. This damaged polymer has been annealed with an equimolar amount of poly (dT) to generate a double-str...
