introduction: mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) mixed with normal saline has short working time, delayed setting time, and poor consistency when used as an apical plug. a preliminary study suggested that substituting normal saline with ky jelly or 5% calcium chloride (cacl 2 ) as a vehicle expedites the setting time of mta. the present in vitro study compared the microleakage of proroot mta mixe...

Novel eutectic mixtures have been produced using calcium chloride hexahydrate as the hydrogen bond acceptor, together with ethylene glycol donor. The liquids are found to increased conductivity, decreased viscosity and a lower glass transition temperature compared most deep solvents quaternary ammonium salts. Additionally, metal speciation was be almost same in commonly-used choline chloride: D...

Alginate based floating in situ gelling systems of famotidine (FIGF) were prepared by dissolving varying concentrations of alginate in deionized water containing sodium citrate, to which varying concentrations of drug and calcium chloride was added and dissolved by stirring. Results of preliminary trials indicate that concentrations of sodium alginate, calcium chloride and sodium citrate affect...

Dialysis rates of cholesterol, calcium chloride dihydrate and of their mixture in 90% aqueous dioxane through Visking cellulose membrane were characterized by half-escape times (t1/2) of 2.2, 1.0 and 10.5 hours, respectively. Slow dialysis rate observed with the mixture was due to complex formation between four molecules of cholesterol and two molecules of calcium chloride dihydrate, molecular ...

In-situ forming polymeric formulations drug delivery systems is in solution form before administration in the body, but once administered, undergoes gelatin in-situ to form a gel. The formulation of gel depends upon factors like temperature modulation, pH changes, presence of ions and ultra-violet irradiation, from which drug gets released in sustained and controlled manner. The object of this ...
