We had extracted n-caproate from bioreactor broth. Here, we introduced in-line membrane electrolysis that utilized a pH gradient between two chambers to transfer the product into undissociated n-caproic acid without chemical addition. Due to the low maximum solubility of this acid, selective phase separation occurred, allowing simple product separation into an oily liquid containing ∼90% n-capr...

Cadmium sulfide particles were prepared by precipitation from acid solution. A radiotracer technique with 109Cd was applied tomeasure the solubili W of cadmium sulfide at various pH's. Filtration, centrifugation, ulttacentrifugation, and dialysis were used to separate the particles from the solution. Only the last two techniques proved to be successful. The solubility of cadmium sulfide in wate...

The solubility behaviour of drug is one of the most challenging aspects in formulation development. Thus a greater understanding of dissolution and absorption behaviour of drug with low aqueous solubility is required to successfully formulate them into more soluble and hence bioavailable drug product. Therefore different approaches are being explored to enhance the solubility of poorly water so...

Lamotrigine is used in the treatment of CNS disorders, particularly epilepsy; pain; oedema; multiple sclerosis and psychiatric indications including bipolar disorder. Lamotrigine belongs to biopharmaceutical classification systems, BCS class II (Low solubility & High permeability). In addition, it requires immediate therapeutic action hence the main objective of this study is to improve the sol...

Isolation of mono-iodotyrosine from slightly iodinated pepsin has been repeated and the properties of the product compared with those of synthetic dl-3-iodotyrosine. Ultraviolet absorption spectra, pK values of the phenol group, solubility measurements, and partition coefficients were so nearly identical for the two materials that there is now no reason to doubt that the product from pepsin is ...

Physico-chemical investigation of urolithiasis today is mostly focused on applying physico-chemical description of precipitation processes to the stone formation with the aim to distinguish between stone formers and nonstone formers. This is done by calculating supersaturation for different solid phases which can be formed in urine using data obtained by urine analysis and existing solubility p...

Mefenamic acid (MA) is a widely used non-steroidal antiinflammatory (NSAID) drug. The adverse effects typical of NSAIDs are also present in the case of MA, partly due to its low water solubility. The aim of this study was to increase the water solubility of MA in order to influence its absorption and bioavailability. Solid dispersions of MA were prepared by the melting method using polyethylene...

In this study, we use solubility and drop-solution calorimetry measurements to determine the thermodynamic properties of the uranyl phosphate phases autunite, uranyl hydrogen phosphate, and uranyl orthophosphate. Conducting the solubility measurements from both supersaturated and undersaturated conditions and under different pH conditions rigorously demonstrates attainment of equilibrium and yi...
