This study aimed to simplify the spectrophotometric fluorescein method for measuring plasma bromide, improve its reproducibility, and automate it. After major modifications of the method, we obtained an essentially linear calibration curve for plasma concentrations of bromide between 0 and 5.0 mmol/L. The intraassay CV for measuring bromide in the supernatants of deproteinized plasma samples (i...

DNA and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) have been used to prepare gel particles for controlled release studies. This article reports on the release of DNA and CTAB in four different solutions: in sodium bromide, in strong acid, pH 2 and pH 9 solutions for salmon testes DNA-CTAB gel particles. Also, compares results at extreme acid media and 10 mM NaBr solution with higher molecular weight...

The kinetics of chloride and bromide transport were examined in intact human red blood cells and resealed ghosts. Because the influx and efflux of halide ions are almost equal (less than 0.01% difference), the stimulation of the exchange flux by external halides could be determined by measuring 36Cl or 82Br efflux. When the external halide concentration was increased by replacement of isoionic,...

A simple, sensitive and selective method for the determination of bromide in seawater by using a flow injection/stopped-flow detection technique was examined. The detection system was developed for a new kinetic-spectrophotometric determination of bromide in the presence of chloride matrix without any extraction and/or separation. The detection was based on the kinetic effect of bromide on the ...

X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) has been used to unveil the bromide ion local coordination structure in 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide [C(n)mim]Br ionic liquids (ILs) with different alkyl chains. The XAS spectrum of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide has been found to be different from those of the other members of the series, from the butyl to the decyl derivatives, that have all ide...

BACKGROUND: Rocuronium Bromide is a newer, low potency nondepolarising neuromuscular blocking agent. It is proven to be five to seven times less potent than vecuronium.The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effectiveness of 2ED95 (2 times effective dose 95) dose (0.6mg/kg) of rocuronium with regard to onset time, the intubating conditions and the duration of action and to compare it w...
