A procedure for the preparation of Strontium Hydroxyapatite is adapted to produce high purity and better homogeneity ceramic with good Crystallinity. The strontium substituted bone cement has potential for use in orthopedic surgeries. Ionic Strontium (Sr) in humans shares the same physiological pathway as calcium and can be deposited in the mineral structure of the bone. In the present study, a...

Commercial tablets of Rosuvastatin Calcium exhibit unsatisfactory dissolution profiles and, consequently, problems of absorption and poor bioavailability. Rosuvastatin Calcium (RST), a poorly water-soluble 3-hydroxy3-methyl glut aryl CoA (HMG-CoA) Reductase inhibitor through inclusion complexation with hydroxy propyl β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD). The aim of this work was to develop Rosuvastatin Oro...

There is a critical need for exact, real-time reaction control of the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) systems that are used for semiconductor device manufacture [1]. At present, the development of real-time control for reactions within production-style reactor configurations is hampered by a number of issues: The nature, concentrations and physical distributions of the chemical species within t...

An investigation was conducted into the influence of the amino acids as organic modifiers in the facile synthesis of metal incorporated fluorapatites (FAp) and their properties. The nanostructured Sm doped fluorapatites (Sm-FAp) were prepared by a co-precipitation method using four different amino acids, namely glutamic acid, aspartic acid, glycine and histidine. The materials were characterize...

BACKGROUND Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is an effective tool for investigation of chemical changes at the molecular level. We previously demonstrated that FT-IR spectroscopy can reliably distinguish multiple types of carcinoma from healthy tissue. Because various stomach diseases are common, it is important to explore a noninvasive and rapid method to detect malignancy and ga...

In this paper, CuO-ZnO nanocomposite was synthesized and its photocatalytic dye degradation ability from colored wastewater was studied. Basic Red 18 (BR18) and Basic Violet 16 (BV16) were used as model dyes. The characteristics of CuO-ZnO of were investigated using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Photocatalytic dy...

Temperature dependence of Fano resonance, recently discovered in infra-red (IR spectra nanodiamonds synthesized from chloroadamantane at high static pressures, is investigated. For the first time, marked variations resonance parameteres are observed. On heating, shape changes considerably; effect completely disappears above 350 C, but recovered after cooling to ambient conditions. Such behaviou...

Silage quality is typically assessed by the measurement of several individual parameters, including pH, lactic acid, acetic acid, bacterial numbers, and protein content. The objective of this study was to use a holistic metabolic fingerprinting approach, combining a high-throughput microtiter plate-based fermentation system with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, to obtain a snaps...

BACKGROUND Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometry has been used to measure small molecules in plasma. We wished to extend this use to measurement of plasma proteins. METHODS We analyzed plasma proteins, glucose, lactate, and urea in 49 blood samples from 35 healthy subjects and 14 patients. For determining the concentration of each biomolecule, the method used the following steps: (a...
