The mechanism of the solvent extraction of cytochrome c (Cyt c) via reverse micelle formation was studied from an electrochemical point of view. Potentiometric measurements showed that the Galvani potential difference of the oil/water (O/W) interface played a crucial role in the spontaneous extraction of Cyt c with bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate (AOT). However, the dependence of the extraction...

Investigations have been conducted on the feasibility of removal of particles from silicon wafers in electrolyte solutions of different ionic strengths irradiated with megasonic waves. Cleaning experiments have been performed using potassium chloride (KCl) as a model electrolyte and silica particles as model contaminant particles. Particle removal efficiency (PRE) increases with KCl concentrati...

In this research paper in air synthesis of Psyllium and zirconium(IV)tungstoiodophosphate based organo-inorganic hybrid ion exchanger has been reported. Synthesised hybrid ion exchanger has been characterized by FT-IR, SEM, EDS and TGA/DTA/DTG and chemical composition. Ion exchange capacity and thermal studies of the synthesised ion exchanger were investigated using the potassium chloride solut...

the present study deals with the oral supplementation with (50, 100 and 150 ?g/ml) synergetic effect of potassium and magnesium chloride on the fat body glycogen, protein, total lipids and haemolymph trehalose, protein of fifth instar larvae of bombyx mori l (lepidoptera: bombycidae). the observed parameters significantly increased in all the treated groups when compared with those of the corre...

Objective: The goal of this study was to examine the effect in vivo melatonin (MEL) administration on isolated thoracic aorta rats with thyroxine treatment and its duty aortic response contractile agents, such as potassium chloride (KCl) phenylephrine (PE). In addition, immunohistological alterations were also examined.
 Methods: Experimental groups follows: control group (n= 5), 6), + 6)....

OBJECTIVES To report our experience with intracardiac potassium chloride (KCl) injection as a method of feticide for severe congenital abnormalities beyond 24 weeks' gestation. METHOD A retrospective chart review. Patient demographics and types of fetal anomalies were analysed according to the groups that accepted or declined late termination of pregnancy (LTOP, ≥24 weeks) for severe congenit...

Delays between soil sampling and processing for analysis are common in both research agronomy, but the effects of storage conditions on measurements plant-available nitrogen (N) rarely considered. With increasing recognition organic N pools soils, such as amino acids peptides, it is necessary to determine how sample handling impacts outcomes quantification. In this study, we used situ microdial...

The effects of various concentrations (0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4, and 8 mM) of potassium chloride on the simultaneously recorded action potential and contractility; and Mg++-dependent, Na++-K+-stimulated membrane ATPase of guinea pig's heart were studied. In KCl-free solution, the inhibition of the Na+-K+-ATPase was associated both with a shortening of the duration of action potential and an increase in ...

Potassium chloride (KCl)-induced stress has been predominantly tested on higher crops such as cotton, rice, and wheat. What open agriculture needs now is the extended understanding of possible contributions detrimental effects KCl dynamics to tomato this one major consumed worldwide. In study, impacts three Philippine (Solanum lycopersicum) genotypes namely, Perlas, Diamante Max F1, Mica, in se...

Smooth muscle myosin heavy chains occur in 2 isoforms, SMA (slow) and SMB (fast). We hypothesized that the SMB isoform is predominant in the faster-contracting rat vena cava compared to thoracic aorta. We compared the time to half maximal contraction in response to a maximal concentration of endothelin-1 (ET-1; 100 nM), potassium chloride (KCl; 100 mM) and norepinephrine (NE; 10 microM). The ti...
