Ion chromatography (IC) developed by Small et al . [1] is widely recognized as a simple, powerful and convenient analytical technique for the determination of various low−molecular−weight ionic compounds [2, 3]. Firstly, IC with conductimetric detection (IC−CD) was mainly applied for the determination of inorganic anions. This is because a lightly sulfonated styrene−divinylbenzene co−polymer (S...

A single column cation exchanger resin was used to eliminate cations from renet cheese whey, with particular reference to the improvement of taste and flavor. Ten panelists were convened to assess the contribution of the mineral components to the salty taste of whey, judging on the basis of taste, flavor and color. The organoleptic characteristics of untreated whey were arbitrarily assigned a s...

Uptake of alkane (C5-C9) and alcohol (C4-C7) solutes by both strong acid cation exchange resins and strong base anion exchange resins in aqueous medium has been studied. The amount of solute taken up by resins is directly proportional to the solute concentration equilibrium with resins. Hydrophobic interaction between the solute and the resin matrix appears to play an important role in the upta...

An attempt was made to sustain the release of Betahistine hydrochloride by complexation technique using strong cation-exchange resin, Tulsion T344. The drug loading onto ion-exchange resin was optimized for mixing time, activation, effect of pH, swelling time, ratio of drug : resin, and temperature. The resinate was evaluated for micromeritic properties and characterized using XRPD and IR. For ...

The copper(II)-histidine complex obtained following dialysis of human plasma with histidine was investigated using various types of extraction systems and ion exchange resins. According to the results obtained, the Cu(II)-histidine complex formed under the dialysis conditions has one positive charge. Preconcentration of copper from the dialysis solution was achieved by its extraction as a dithi...
