In summarizing the results obtained for these 6 groups of animals, the following conclusions may be drawn: Normal rabbits living in total darkness and exposed to ultra-violet radiation at regular intervals showed a more rapid rate of increase in weight than animals living under the same condition, but after an initial period of rapid increase, the irradiated animals maintained a lower body weig...

A psychrophilic strain of bacteria identified as Chromobacterium lividum was established as the causative agent of an outbreak of violet discoloration in refrigerated, pasteurized retail milk and cream. The organism was rod-shaped, gram-negative, and produced viscid colonies with abundant violet pigment on Tryptone glucose yeast extract agar. Growth was abundant at 4 C but none occurred at 37 C...

We examined the effect on some clinical chemical assays of adding chlordiazepoxide or its two metabolites, the lactam and the N-desmethylchlordiazepoxide, to serum or urine. We also examined the effect on urinary steroid values of administering the drug for as long as 20 days. The drug, in 10-fold the expected concentrations in blood, or its metabohites, in 200-fold the expected Concentration i...

The determination of triflouperazine hydrochloride in pure and dose forms has been developed using a simple spectrophotometric approach. method employs an oxidative coupling reaction with sulfanilic acid the presence N-bromosuccinimide to produce red-violet colored product maximum absorbance 537nm. For 12 hours remains stable. molar absorptivity 0.55x104 L.mole −1.cm-1, Beer's law is followed o...

Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to various diseases, but could be rectified via fortified food stuffs or supplementation. In this study 39 different hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents were evaluated for green extraction of ergosterol from mushroom. Extraction parameters (e.g. time, solvent volume) optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) and a maximum yield 6995.00 µg ergosterol/...

To obtain some information of the biological action of Kankohso 101dinicotinate and Kankohso 301-nicotinate, observations were made on the binding mode of these substances with protein, chondroitin sulfate and nucleic acids and the following results were obtained; 1. Kankohso 10 I-dinicotinate binds reversively with bovine serum albumin or serum r-globulin, resulting in metachromasia. By bindin...

The title compound, C(19)H(14)O(3)S, was prepared by the oxidation of 2-methyl-1-(phenyl-sulfan-yl)naphtho[2,1-b]furan with 3-chloro-peroxy-benzoic acid. The phenyl ring makes a dihedral angle of 87.13 (4)° with the plane of the naphthofuran fragment. The crystal structure is stabilized by π-π inter-actions between the furan and benzene rings of neighbouring mol-ecules [centroid-centroid distan...
