To determine cholesterolin biologicalfluids,use of the ferric chloride-sulfuric acid reagent introduced by Zlatkis et al. (1) is relatively simple and reliable (2, 3), and the sensitivityof the reagent for cholesterol is four to five times greater than that of the Liebermann-Burchard reagent (2). However, Parekh and Jung (4) reported that hydrogen chloride is evolved during the ferric chloride-...

Ferric Species Standard ferric sulfate solutions were prepared by dissolving spectrographically pure iron rod (Johnson Matthey) in sulfuric acid and oxidizing with hydrogen peroxide. The decadic molar extinction coefficient of ferric ion in 0.8 N sulfuric acid at 24.9?C was found to be 2199 ? 4 liters mole-' cm-l at 304 m,/. The effect of a decrease of acidity and of added ferrous and cupric su...

The hemostatic efficacy, as well as the cardiovascular effects, of two hemostatic agents currently used during endodontic surgery was examined. The hemostatic agents used were epinephrine pellets (Racellet pellets) or 20% ferric sulfate (Viscostat). Patients were assigned to one of two experimental groups. Blood pressure and pulse rate were recorded pre- and postoperatively and at three additio...

The 3 rapid screening methods studied all involved chromatography of partially purified extracts on minicolumns. In one method acetonitrile-water is used to extract aflatoxin from corn and a lead acetate precipitation removes impurities from the extracts. The second method specifies acetone-water as the extracting solvent and ammonium sulfate as the precipitant. The third method is based on ace...

Archaeoglobus fulgidus, a hyperthermophilic sulfate-reducing Archaeon, contains high Fe(3+)-EDTA reductase activity in its soluble protein fraction. The corresponding enzyme, which constitutes about 0.75% of the soluble protein, was purified 175-fold to homogeneity. Based on SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, the ferric reductase consists of a single subunit with a M(r) of 18,000. The M(r)...

In this article, a new type of coagulant material has been investigated and the performance coagulation process using was evaluated. This is combination zinc oxide nanoparticles polyferric sulfate (ZnOPFS). The structure determined by spectroscopic, X-ray electron microscopy methods, based on this, it that ZnOPFS complex mixed compound mainly composed ferric sulfate. effects Zn/Fe (Zn/Fe) molar...

Microencapsulated ferrous sulfate (SFE-171) and ferric orthophosphate in Petit-Suisse cheese were examined for iron bioavailability by the prophylactic method. The iron sources were industrially added to different samples of Petit-Suisse cheese, which were mixed with other food components in our laboratory before use. A reference standard diet inclusive of nonmicroencapsulated ferrous sulfate a...
