Solubility enhancement of meloxicam and rofecoxib, which are poorly soluble in water, was attempted. These are available in the form of solid dosage forms but not in solution dosage forms due to their low aqueous solubility. In this work, aqueous solubility of meloxicam and rofecoxib was improved using the biocompatible solvents such as ethanol, propylene glycol, glycerin, and PEG 400. Physico-...

Paracellular permeability and absorptive water flux across the intestine of the euryhaline killifish were investigated using in vitro gut sac preparations from seawater- and freshwater-acclimated animals. The permeability of polyethylene glycol (PEG), a well-established paracellular probe, was measured using trace amounts of radiolabelled oligomers of three different molecular sizes (PEG-400, P...

Agave bagasse is a residual biomass in the production of alcoholic beverage tequila, and therefore, it promising raw material development biorefineries using hot compressed water pretreatment (hydrothermal processing). Surfactants application has been frequently reported as an alternative to enhance monomeric sugars efficiency possibility reduce enzyme loading required. Nevertheless, surfactant...

Polyethylene glycol (PEG) used as a brightening and stabilization agent at the concentration of 30 mg dm(-3) is a major organic additive in the copper electroplating solution. Activated carbon, Calgon Filtrasob 400, is used as the adsorbent to remove the PEG from the used electroplating solution in order to broaden the appeal of recycling it. The equilibrium of adsorption is attained within 14 ...

Macromonomeric azo initiators (macroinimers, MIM) which have the properties of macromonomers, macrocrosslinkers and macroinitiators in a macrostructure were used in miniemulsion polymerization of styrene in the presence or absence of any other stabilizer and initiator. MIMs were prepared from the reaction of 4,40-dicyano-4,40-azovaleryl chloride, with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) of different mo...

Objective: This study aimed to find the best SNEDDS meloxicam formula and analyze release kinetics of non-SNEDDS using DDSolver. 
 Methods: Meloxicam was prepared sunflower seed oil, Cremophor RH 40 as a surfactant, polyethylene glycol (PEG) 400 co-surfactant. Results: The obtained subjected in vitro dissolution analyzed shows one selected consists 10% 70% cremophor 40, 20% PEG with 20.5 n...

Abstract The vast amount of not-recycled polyethylene terephthalate (PET) bottle waste is a serious threat to the environment. In order utilize waste, PET ultrafiltration membranes were prepared using as raw material by phase inversion technique. Low molecular weight glycol (PEG 400) was used additive for membranes. resin also membrane compare properties from and those resin. that showed simila...

In the present study, the permeabilities of CO2 and CH4 in terms of ideal and actual CO2/CH4 selectivity were investigated through the synthesized membranes of poly (ether-block-amide) (Pebax 1657) accompanied with poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG 400) and NH2-MIL125 nanoparticles. NH2-MIL125 nanofillers were added to the blend of PEG...

A poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) based macroinitiator (MI) with terminal chloride atom at both ends was prepared by the reaction of PEG-400 with chloroacetyl chloride and used for the cationic polymerization of dodecyl vinyl ether (DVE) yielding ABA type block copolymer. The block copolymer was then used as the surfactant for the emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate and styrene in the presence...
