The efficiency of a novel strain of lactic acid bacteria inoculant (Lactobacillus plantarum VTT E-78076, E76) on the fermentation quality of wilted silage was studied. Furthermore, the possibility to improve aerobic stability of silages by combining an inoculant and chemical preservatives was investigated. Two experiments were conducted with wilted timothy-meadow fescue herbage (dry matter 429 ...

Simple, rapid, and precise densitometric TLC methods have been established for simultaneous determination of loratadine and preservatives in loratadine–sodium benzoate and loratadine–methylparaben–propylparaben mixtures. Chromatography was performed on aluminium plates precoated with silica gel 60 F254. The mobile phases were n-butyl acetate–carbon tetrachloride–acetic acid–acetonitrile 3:6:0.2...

In this study a reversed phase HPLC method for rapid and simultaneous identification and quantification of doxylamine succinate, ephedrine sulfate, dextrometorphane hydrobromide, paracetamole and sodium benzoate in cough-cold syrup formulation was described. Separation was carried out on XTerra RP 18, Waters (150 mm x 4.6 mm column, 5 μm particle size). For the analysis of investigated substanc...

The sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfococcus multivorans uses various aromatic compounds as sources of cell carbon and energy. In this work, we studied the initial steps in the aromatic metabolism of this strictly anaerobic model organism. An ATP-dependent benzoate coenzyme A (CoA) ligase (AMP plus PPi forming) composed of a single 59-kDa subunit was purified from extracts of cells grown on ben...

1. DNA has been isolated from different mammalian tissues. The DNA preparations were free from RNA, protein and polysaccharides and have a similar range of sedimentation coefficients (approx. 24s). 2. Protein was removed by a two-stage extraction with a phenol-cresol mixture by using a detergent with 4-aminosalicylate in the first stage and sodium chloride in the second. 3. Polysaccharides rema...

Triphenyltinbenzoate was synthesized using triphenyltinchloride and silver benzoate prepared from sodium benzoate. The structure of the synthetic compound was elucidated by spectral and C, H analysis. The antibacterial activities of the organotin compound were determined against four bacteria namely Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 25923), Streptococcus pyogenes (clini...

We report on a patient with ureterosigmoid anastomosis, who presented with recurrent episodes of confusion, agitation and aggressive behaviour, culminating in coma. Investigations revealed profound hyperammonaemia, which responded to treatment with sodium benzoate and sodium phenylacetate. No definite cause was found for the abnormality, apart from possible urinary tract infection. The patient ...

Benzoate-based room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) have been synthesized with cations of varying structures. The thermal properties of these RTILs have been characterized to understand their structure–property relationship. A subset of these benzoate-RTILs was found to be capable of dissolving highly charged polysaccharides, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) to an extent of 10 mg/ml while PF6 and BF...
