In a laboratory study, the effectiveness of combined tartrate and citrate as photocatalyst in solar photocatalytic oxidation and removal of arsenic from ground water was studied and a method, using a naturally occurring tartrate-citrate photocatalyst that can be used at the household level to treat small quantities of drinking water was developed. Kinetic tests performed with 250 μg/L As(III)-s...

Corrosion behavior of mild steel in chloride contaminated alkaline solution has been studied for the period up to 100days. Saturated Calcium hydroxide solution was used as alkaline solution and 0.5M NaCl solution was used to accelerate mild steel corrosion. The Charge transfer resistance Rct, Current density Icorr and inhibition efficiency values were obtained from tafel polarization and electr...

In this study, a significant effect of sodium citrate increasing fenofibrate dissolution has been demonstrated. This effect was dependent on the polymer: drug mixing weight ratio, the sodium citrate type and the method used to disperse the drug with in the polymer. The greater the sodium citrate content the higher the drug dissolution was, up to a maximum corresponding to a polymer: drug ratio ...

Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory activities. It is practically insoluble in water. The effect of hydrotropes such as urea and sodium citrate and blends (urea + sodium citrate) on the solubility of aceclofenac was investigated. The enhancement in the solubility of aceclofenac was more than 5 and 25 folds in 3...

ABSTRACTOvulation induction with clomiphene citrate is a hormonal therapy for infertile women impaired ovarian function caused by dysregulation of the hypothalamus and pituitary, affecting egg development ovulation. Several factors, such as obesity, influence success rate treatment citrate. According to Asia-Pacific classification, obesity was classified into two categories, type I (25-29,9 kg/...

Extracts of liver and muscle convert citric acid into laevo-rotatory isocitric acid [Martius, 1938]. As the rotation of isocitric acid, like that ofother ac-hydroxy acids, is much increased by (NH4)2MoO4*, the polarimeter can be used to measure low concentrations of isocitric acid in tissue extracts [Martius, 1938; Jacobsohn, 1940]. On applying this method to plant extracts we met with an unexp...
