The bulk etch rate for CR-39 in NaOH/ethanol was faster than those in aqueous solution of NaOH (NaOH/H2O). Furthermore, a layer of precipitate always accumulates on the surface of CR-39 detector during etching in NaOH/ethanol, which is absent during etching in NaOH/H2O. In the present work, mass spectrometry results have shown that the same etched products are present in the etchants of NaOH/H2...

BACKGROUND Many serological tests have been used for the diagnosis of human brucellosis. A new serological method is identified as Brucella Coombs gel test based on the principle of centrifugation gel system similar to the gel system used in blood group determination. In this system, if Brucella antibodies were present in the serum, antigen and antibody would remain as a pink complex on the gel...

Modeling of liquid ceramic precursor droplets axially injected into a plasma is presented. Droplets undergo heating and solvent vaporization leading to high solute concentration near droplet surface. At a critical solute super-saturation concentration, precipitation is postulated to occur forming a precipitate shell around liquid core. Internal pressurization and rupture of shell occur subseque...

The interaction of the dye reactive bright red 6C with bovine serum albumin has been investigated. Formation of a complex between reactive bright red 6C and bovine serum albumin was detected by use of absorption difference spectroscopy. The curves obtained by titration of the protein against the dye were recorded at different pH and ionic strength of the solution. An unusual form of titration c...

Measurements of parameters expressed in terms of carbonic species such as Alkalinity and Acidity of saline waters do not analyze the influence of external parameters to the titration such as Total free and associated Carbonic Species Concentration, activity coefficient, ion pairing formation and Residual Liquid Junction Potential in pH measurements. This paper shows the development of F5BC titr...

After the biologically inactive precipitate was removed, the filtrate was adjusted to pH 5.0 which resulted in the formation of dark red precipitate of crude pradimicin. This solid was stirred in a mixture of BuOH-MeOH-1% NaCl (3 :1 :4, pH 2.0). The organic layer was separated and extracted with alkaline water (pH 8.0). The aqueous layer was adjusted to pH 2.0 and subjected to column chromatogr...

The concentration of free phosphate groups is measured in rat liver chromatin after DNase II digestion using polylysine titration. The unsheared chromatin completely precipitates at lysine/DNA phosphate ratios of 0.5 to 0.6. Digestion of the chromatin reduces the lysine/DNA phosphate ratio of complete precipitation by about 0.2 units suggesting the removal of free phosphate groups. The two chr...
