Solubility and crystallization in biological fluids and the problems of life and health*

چکیده
An analysis is given of several biologically important processes, connected with the crystallization and kinetics of liophilization in aqueous physiological solutions. These are glass formation and vitrification of life, precipitation of slightly soluble salts and kinetics of crystallization in human urine, and the solution of CaOX concretions under the influence of biocompatible solubilizators, which are normal constituents of human urine. The problems investigated experimentally are treated in the framework of the capillary theory of nucleation and the Debye–Hückel model of ionic solutions.

Curcumin as a bioactive compound: biological properties and encapsulation methods
Curcumin is a bioactive compound from turmeric which has different biological properties and health benefits such as antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and anticancer activities. However, the low solubility, poor bioavailability, and rapid degradation under neutral or alkaline pH conditions or when exposed to light, limit the food applications of curcumin. These problems can be solv...
متن کاملSolubility Parameter of Fluids from Molecular Thermodynamic Model
The modified square well Potential is combined with perturbed-hard-trimer-chain (PHTC) EOS to predict the solubility parameter of several fluids including alkanes, refrigerants and molten polymers. The performance of the proposed model has been evaluated by predicting the solubility parameter of 12 hydrocarbons,3 refrigerants, and 12 polymers. From the 263 data points for hydrocarbons and refri...
متن کاملDesign of Optimal Process Flowsheet for Fractional Crystallization Separation Process
A procedure is presented that synthesizes fractional crystallization separation processes to obtain pure solids from multi-component solutions. The method includes a procedure to generate a network flow model to identify alternative process designs for fractional crystallization. The main advantage of this systematic procedure with respect to other reported procedures is using non-equilibri...
