Potassium concentrations in excess of 30 mM increase the rate of beating of lateral cilia on the gill of Mytilus edulis. Cilioexcitation produced by low frequency (5 beats/s) electrical stimulation was potentiated with potassium but blocked with bromolysergic acid (a serotonergic inhibitor). Cilioinhibition produced by high frequency (50 beats/s) stimulation was decreased with potassium and phe...

abstract background: distal radial fracture is one of the most common fractures of the skeletal system. although it has been believed to be a simple fracture with excellent outcomes, practical operations’ results have always been undesirable and even poor. the goal of this study was to compare two methods of treatment “pin and plaster and precautious pin fixation in patients with unstable extra...

potassium level. The liver has been established as the major source of the extra potassium in adrenaline hyperkalemia (5-7). On the other hand, nicotine stimulates adrenaline release from the adrenal glands (11-13), thereby the hyperglycemia is produced as the result of a pharmacological action of nicotine (14-16). As the authors are interested in the relation of the hepatic release of potassiu...

Objective: The Losartan potassium mucoadhesive buccal tablet were prepared using mucoadhesive polymers such as Carbopol 940P, pectin, sodium CMC, Sodium alginate, HPMC K4M, HPMC K15M and HPMC K100M in alone and in combination as release retarding agent to prolong the drug release and to avoid first pass metabolism. Methods: The mucoadhesive buccal tablets were prepared by direct compression met...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects potassium extraction on pozzolanicity sugar cane bagasse ash (SCBA), with aim producing reactive for use in cementitious composites. ashes were produced at 600 °C 60 min, a heating rate 4 °C/min. then ground and washed extraction. In order assess behaviour before after extraction, following procedures performed: energy-dispersive spectrosc...
