In the present work, fast dissolving tablets of granisetron HCl were prepared using low compressible (mannitol) and high compressible saccharides (sorbitol 5-15% w/w) along with crospovidone, croscarmellose sodium and L-HPC as super-disintegrants in different ratios(2-8% w/w) In case of sorbitol, the presence of interlocking crystals that are generated using specific manufacturing conditions en...

The main objective of this study was to assess how mangrove reforestation has influenced litter degradation and concomitant nutrient dynamics in previously deforested plantations. Dynamics of nutrients (carbon, nitrogen and C:N ratios) in decomposing leaves of conspecific species were investigated with litterbags in Sonneratia alba and Rhizophora mucronata reforested treatments using appropriat...

Vink, Hans, and Brian R. Duling. Capillary endothelial surface layer selectively reduces plasma solute distribution volume. Am. J. Physiol. Heart Circ. Physiol. 278: H285– H289, 2000.—We previously reported that a 0.4to 0.5-μmthick endothelial surface layer confines Dextran 70 (70 kDa) to the central core of hamster cremaster muscle capillaries. In the present study we used a variety of plasma ...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS In neotropical forests, very small-seeded pioneer species (<0.1 mg seed mass) recruit preferentially in small tree fall gaps and at gap edges, but large-seeded pioneers do not. Since water availability is related to gap size, these differences in microsite preference may reflect in part species-specific differences in germination at reduced water potentials. METHODS For 14...

We have grown Ce-doped (La,Y)2Si2O7 single crystal by micro-pulling-down method and investigated its optical scintillation properties. successfully prepared the with (Ce0.015La0.600Y0.385)2Si2O7 composition. The observed thermal quenching process could be characterized temperature (T50%) of 526 K activation energy was determined to 0.62 eV. Further considering factors, it found that caused at l...

Background: Master swimming is becoming increasingly popular, but research related to the training process and its effect on this population scarce. The aim of study was investigate effects 12 weeks in-water in stroke kinematics, dry-land power, sprints performance master swimmers, relationships between these variables sports population. Methods: 15 healthy physically active male swimmers (age ...
