Colloid-chemical Studies on Dyestuff Solution. I

Voluven, a new colloid solution.

Hydroxyethyl starch (HES) 130/0.4 (Voluven, Fresenius/Hospira, Germany) is indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of hypovolemia. As the Voluven molecule is smaller than those of other available hydroxyethyl starch products, it is associated with less plasma accumulation and can be safely used in patients with renal impairment. Previous studies have demonstrated that Voluven has comparable...

Effect of Reaction Conditions on Production of Catechinone Hair Dyestuff in Water/Alcohol Mixed Solution

Catechinone hair dyestuff was produced chemically from (+)-catechin by the oxidation with O2 in basic water/alcohol mixed solution. The effects of reaction conditions such as basicity, sorts of added base, temperature, alcohol molar fraction of solvent and sorts of added alcohols on the catechinone formation were studied in order to increase the efficiency of the dyestuff production. The amount...

Studies on the Ion-Droplet Mixed Regime in Colloid Thrusters

Studies on the Mucin Derived from Human Colloid Breast Carcinoma.

1. A non-diffusible mucoid, showing a single peak in the ultracentrifuge, was isolated from human colloid breast carcinoma by treatment with trypsin and pepsin. The material contained threonine, leucine (isoleucine), valine, proline, glycine and glutamic acid in the approximate molar proportions 5:1:1:2:1:1. Smaller amounts of aspartic acid and serine were also found. For each 5 threonine resid...

Cerium Extraction from Solution by Adsorbing Colloid Flotation (ACF)

In this research, cerium recycling was studied by Adsorbing Colloid Flotation (ACF). Ten important parameters including collector type and dosage, cerium and colloid concentrations, frother type, activator type, preparation and frothing time, air flowrate and pH, each in two levels, were investigated. Statistical design of experiment was implemented for process modelling and analysis of var...
