Alcoholic beverages are assumed to be the most popular drinks which are being consumed after water. Though for people who drink alcohol in excessive amounts longer time would be taken to become dependent in comparison with other drugs. Alcohol causes more severe medical and social harm as well as many fatal accidents for its users. Non-medical interventions are still on the top of the list of e...

In this study effect of Stearamide as a corrosion inhibitor for mild steel in hydrochloric acid media was investigated employing various electrochemical techniques include potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and liner polarization resistance (LPR). In view of the fact that Stearamide is an insoluble compound in water, its inhibitive effect was examined by ...

Gabapentin is used with other medications to control and prevent seizures. It is also used to treat neuropathic pain following surgery due to shingles. Gabapentin comes in many different forms, including capsules, tablets, and oral solutions. Some patients, however, cannot use oral solutions containing alcohol or sorbitol. The objective of this study was to determine the stability of gabapentin...

background: to seek pleasure is man’s innate nature. in his search for gratification, man has discovered a world of substances that intoxicated him. those who fell within its trap, their life changed, their families aggrieved and they shrank from company. the addiction remained alone in the end. to many death was a relief. methods: a community based cross-sectional study was conducted in the ca...

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, since 2020, alcohol-based sanitisers have been frequently used in museums and historic sites. Although they provide a safer environment for visitors, impact of (components in) on cultural heritage open display is still uncertain. The current study investigated effects ethanol isopropanol solutions silk artefacts specifically relation possible mechanical changes the...

The thermal denaturation of lysozyme in aqueous alcohol solutions has been investigated through ultraviolet difference spectrophotometry and optical rotation measurements. Alcohols used were CH30H, C2H50H, and C3H70H; concentrations up to 50% (v/v) of alcohol in water were employed. It was found that upon increasing the size or the concentration of the aliphatic alcohol, the denaturation temper...

We show that the anomalous negative excess entropy of mixing characteristic of aqueous lower alcohols containing hydrophobic groups is quantitatively consistent with a model exploiting only the experimentally observed molecular-scale segregation of the components across the entire concentration range. The simple model presented here, which uses plausible interatomic distances as its only free p...
