Ft Ir Spectroscopy and Molecular Modelling of Benzocaine / Β-cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex

Benzocaine is a local anesthetic used for different pain treatments. Including it in various cyclodextrins one can increase the solubility of this drug. Several inclusion compounds of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) with benzocaine, prepared by kneading and coprecipitation methods, were investigated. In order to understand the inclusion process mechanisms FT IR spectroscopic investigation and molecular m...

Structural Analysis of Hirudin Using FT-IR and FT-Raman Spectroscopic Techniques

FT-IR and FT-Raman spectra of hirudin have been recorded from the native solid hirudin. The conformation of the molecule has been discussed on the basis of IR and Raman data. It has been concluded that hirudin molecule has a mixed a-helix and random coil conformation.

Dogfish egg case structural studies by ATR FT-IR and FT-Raman spectroscopy.

The dogfish egg case is a composite structure that combines mechanical tensile strength, toughness and elasticity with high permeability to small molecules and ions. Presumably, it provides both a protective and a filtering role for the egg/embryo contained within it. In this work, we performed structural studies of the Galeus melastomus egg case at two different stages of the hardening process...

Evaluation of Turmeric Powder Adulterated with Metanil Yellow Using FT-Raman and FT-IR Spectroscopy

Turmeric powder (Curcuma longa L.) is valued both for its medicinal properties and for its popular culinary use, such as being a component in curry powder. Due to its high demand in international trade, turmeric powder has been subject to economically driven, hazardous chemical adulteration. This study utilized Fourier Transform-Raman (FT-Raman) and Fourier Transform-Infra Red (FT-IR) spectrosc...
