results the results showed that the maximum oil was incorporated in microemulsion system that contained surfactant to cosurfactant ratio of 4:1. the mean droplet size range of microemulsion formulation was in the range of 5.09 to 159 nm, and its refractory index (ri) and ph were 1.44 and 7, respectively. viscosity range was 57-226 cps. drug release profile showed that 48.18% of the drug release...

Acrylic acid is a monomer that has been responsible for number of severe explosions worldwide as result thermal runaway. The present work was intended to lead an improved understanding the kinetics polymerization and Michael addition reaction (MAR) acrylic acid. Sealed cell differential scanning calorimetry carried out, were assessed on basis model-free Friedman method. In addition, microcalori...

Differential scanning microcalorimetry (DSC), UV absorption and circular dichroism (CD) have been used to study structure and stability of linear (lin), open circular (oc), supercoiled (cd) and relaxed circular duplex (rd) DNA and calf thymus (CT) DNA. Investigations were made in low salt buffer and in the presence of 7.2 M NaClO4. The chaotropic action of perchlorate promotes a reduction of th...

Thermotropic properties of blue-green algae grown at high, room, and low temperatures in H(2)O and D(2)O media were studied by highly sensitive differential scanning microcalorimetry. The thermograms of these organisms contain an endothermal peak in the temperature range of 50 to 70 C with an endothermal heat ranging from 0.14 to 1.91 joules per gram organism. The temperature at which the endot...

We present a study of the structural and thermomechanical properties of lyotropic phase in the quasi ternary system made of Cetylpyridinium chloride (CPCl)/hexanol/salt water (0.9 % by mass) with and without cobalt microparticles. Phase transition temperatures of the structural sequence isotropic L 1/nematic calamitic Nc ,/hexagonal H have been determined by differential scanning microcalorimet...

The thermal denaturation profiles of Calf Thymus DNA in the presence of binuclear compounds of bivalent platinum (cis-[{Pt(NH3)2Cl}2Pyr]Cl2) were studied by absorption spectrophotometry and differential adiabatic scanning microcalorimetry. A comparison with an active antitumor drug cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (cis-DDP) was made. Experimental data witness that small concentrations (r<0.3) of bi...

The interaction of spermine and its analogue, 1-naphthyl acetyl spermine with four double stranded DNA polynucleotides has been studied to understand the structural and thermodynamic basis of the binding. The efficacy and specificity of DNA binding of this analogue has not yet been revealed. The energetics of the interaction was studied by isothermal titration calorimetry and differential scann...

Wild-type potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) plants and their transformants harboring agrobacterial rolB or rolC genes under control of the patatin class I promoter were cultured in vitro. These plants were used as a source of single-node stem cuttings. The structure of native starch in tubers formed on cuttings was determined using methods of X-ray scattering and differential scanning microcalorime...

Differential scanning microcalorimetry was used to assess the conformational stability of muscle lactate dehydrogenase (M4-LDH) from skeletal muscle of Misgurnus fossilis (loach) fishes adapted to low (the “cold” enzyme) and high (the “warm” enzyme) environmental temperatures. It was found that the denaturation temperature Td was the same for both forms of lactate dehydrogenase, whereas the den...
