Decreased carotid arterial compliance has been reported in obese subjects and animals. Carotid baroreceptors are located at the bifurcation of the common carotid artery, and respond to distension of the arterial wall, suggesting that higher pressure is required to obtain the same distension in obese subjects and animals. A hyperosmotic NaCl solution induces circulatory volume expansion and arte...

Sodium chloride is an important ingredient added to most of foods which contributes to flavor enhancement and food preservation but excess intake of sodium chloride may also cause various diseases such as heart diseases, osteoporosis and so on. Therefore, this study was carried out to investigate the effect of monosodium glutamate (MSG) as a salty flavor enhancer on the quality and sensorial pr...

Aerosolized nanoparticles of NaCl coated with variable amounts of surfactant AOT were generated by electrospraying AOT/NaCl aqueous solutions, followed by neutralizing and drying the resulting particles. A tandem differential mobility analyzer was used to select a narrow size distribution of particles with mobility equivalent diameters below 20 nm and monitor their hygroscopic growth as a funct...

Ionic interactions in the two systems NaCl-HEPES (N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N'-2-ethanesulfonic acid) and NaCl-MOPSO (3-(N-Morpholino)-2-hydroxypropanesulfonic acid) have been studied in terms of their mutual influence on the respective activity coefficients of each component. Activity coefficients for each component of the two systems and for corresponding buffers are calculated from emf meas...

In order to study the effect of inorganic salt additives on surface tension a sodium dodecylbenzene sulfonate (SDBS) solution, mixed system six common additives, NaCl, CaCl2, AlCl3, Na2SO4, Na2CO3, and NaHCO3, SDBS was measured, effects types, surfactant concentrations solution were studied. On this basis, three salts, CaCl2 selected, their critical micelle concentration (CMC) The experimental ...

The interface-selective second harmonic generation (SHG) nonlinear optical spectroscopy and the surface tension method have been used to measure the effect of electrolyte on the adsorption isotherm of 4-hydroxyacetophenone (4-HA) at the air-solution interface. It was observed that high NaCl concentration favors adsorption of organic molecules to the air-solution interface. Measurements of the p...

Cancer chemotherapy using carbamate insecticides has been published by the first author. This study was to evaluate their effects on other cell types because; pesticides and insecticides can affect the health of living organisms through different mechanisms such as membrane denaturation. The evaluation of the deleterious effects of chemical agents on biological membranes can be performed throug...

Although offering superior resistance to corrosion, titanium is unable to withstand discoloration with exposure to peroxide or fluoride. The mechanism of this discoloration, however, remains to be clarified. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism underlying discoloration of titanium with immersion in peroxide- or fluoride-containing solutions based on electrochemical quartz ...

We report on the dynamic response of aqueous solution containing poly(N-isopropylacrylamide)-capped gold (pNIPAM-capped Au) nanoparticles to introduction NaCl. The addition NaCl increases density and prompts liquid–liquid phase separation process, confining polymer a lower-density salt-deficient phase. As pNIPAM-occupied becomes excluded from higher-density NaCl-rich bulk solution, pNIPAM-cappe...

Deicing of pavements is essential to ensure safe and timely movement traffic in geographical locations where snow ice events are anticipated. State local municipalities employ brine solution with 23.3 wt% sodium chloride (NaCl) available the form rock salt deice pavements. Unlike water, does not freeze until temperature falls below ?21.0 °C, i.e., freezing point water depressed by °C addition N...
