in this study formation and properties of o/w emulsion stabilized by a mixture of sodium caseinate (2, 5 and 10 wt %) and non-ionic emulsifier tween 80, sorbitan mono-9-octadecenoate, (0, 0.5, 1 and 1.5 wt %) were investigated at various ph values(3, 5 and 7) and calcium ion concentrations (0, 0.2, 0.4 and 0.6 wt%). emulsion samples were prepared by using a sonicator with a nominal power output...

in this study, aniline-formaldehyde polymer was synthesized and then modified with extra aniline as cross-linker in the presence and absence of ni(ii) as the template to produce ion imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde) (iipaf) and non imprinted poly(aniline-formaldehyde)(nipaf) the iipaf was subjected to adsorption, preconcentration and determination of ni(ii) ion in environmental samples. the ...

background: high-velocity carbon ion beams represent the most advanced tool for radiotherapy of deep-seated tumors. currently, the superiority of carbon ion therapy is more prominent on lung cancer or hepatomas. materials and methods: the data for lateral straggling and projected range of monoenergetic 290 mev/u (3.48 gev) carbon ions in muscle tissue were obtained from the stopping and range o...

The main objective of this study was to investigate biocompatibility and provide in vivo pharmacological and toxicological evidence for further investigation of the possibility of pH sensitive ion exchange resin microsphere for clinical utilizations. Acute toxicity study and general pharmacological studies were conducted on the pH sensitive ion exchange resin microsphere we prepared. The genera...

The interaction between hydronium ion and several crown ethers was studied via conductometry in nitromethane at 25 °C and 1H-NMR techniques. The stabilities of the resulting 1:1 complexes were determined from the conductance data and found to vary in the order DC18C6 > 18C6 > DB30C10 > DB24C8 > DB18C6 > ~B15C5 > DB21C7. For the first time, evidences for the formation of a 2:1 san...

Graft copolymers of acrylamide on carboxymethyl cellulose (d.s 0.4-0.5) were prepared by the use of ceric ion, ceric ion/reductant molecule initiator systems in aqueous medium. The graft copolymers were characterized by IR spectroscopy. The extent of graft copolymerisation was measured in terms of grafted chains as a function of both ceric ion and ceric ion/reductant molecule concentrations. It...

Natural indicators of the electrical polarity of a direct current (DC) source is limited to semiconductor based diodes and transistors. Recently a novel bio-natural indicator of the polarity of a DC source have been reported. Mimosa Pudica or sensitive plant is found to be a natural detector of a DC source polarity, however the mechanism underlying this phenomenon is not known. This paper aims ...
