In this work, dyeing properties of wool samples with Alkanna tinctorum root extract was investigated. For purpose, two different dyestuff extracts, red and blue are gained from its roots acetone ethanol solvents, as well. Wool fabrics (194 pieces) dyed AIK(SO4)·12H2O, FeSO4·7H2O, CuSO4·5H2O, AgNO3 CoCI2·6H2O mordants at pH 2, 4, 6 8, respectively. Unmordanting, pre-mordanting, meta-mordanting, ...

The methods most generally used for the determination of phosphates in blood are based upon the reduction of phosphomolybdic acid to the blue molybdic oxide, the color of which is compared to a solution containing a known amount of phosphate. The first method based upon this principle was introduced by Taylor and Miller (1) and was later modified by Bell and Doisy (2), Brig& (3), Benedict and T...

BACKGROUND Biuret assays for total protein measurement are considered to react with all peptides longer than 2 residues. Some studies using biuret assays of urine suggest that small peptides generally are more abundant than proteins in urine, but it is not clear whether this is a problem of assay specificity. METHODS We analyzed the specificity and kinetics of a biuret reaction for solutions ...

a whitish appearance, and on exposure to the air, coagulated into a mass shewing that it contained much solid ingredients. Symptoms ?General appearance of the patient was lean and emaciated ; ribs protruding ; intercostal spaces depressed ; eyes ?nnken ; conjunctivie pale ; tongue reddish colored ; pulse weak and somewhat frequent; respiration bronchial, at times hurried ; prostration, inabilit...

We describe a thin-layer chromatographic technique suitablefor isolating at least four metabolites of L-aacetyl methadol. The metabolites are discussed in terms of their color reactions to chromatography spray reagents and their appearance in the urine during various time intervals after dosage. Methadone is detected by the presence of the unmetabolized drug and two of its metabolites in the ur...

The present paper reports a method for determining the respective concentrations of total, o(-, and /3-17-ketosteroids in urine which is based upon the previously reported method of assaying mixtures of crystalline androsterone (a-steroid) and dehydroisoandrosterone (p-steroid) (1) and a simple means of eliminating the interfering effect of the non-ketonic substances from the calorimetric deter...

The levels of hippuric acid in the urine of people exposed to toluene vapour were measured by paper chromatography, direct colorimetry, high performance liquid chromatography and gas chromatography. The control was a similar group not exposed to toluene vapour. The values were analyzed statistically, conversion equations calculated, and the propriety of these equation discussed. Since the three...

conclusions vancomycin nephrotoxicity is common but usually reversible and has readily manageable adverse effect. urine kim-1 was not more accurate than serum or urine creatinine in detecting vancomycin nephrotoxicity in our study population. results thirteen out of the 52 recruited patients (25%) developed nephrotoxicity, with a mean ± standard deviation onset of 11.46 ± 7.56 days. furosemide ...

leptospirosis is a zoonosis of worldwide distribution, caused by leptospira interrogans and is considered as an emerging global public health problem. transmission usually results from direct or indirect exposure to the urine or other body fluids of leptospiruric animals which may become a source of infection for human or other animals. having a humid climate with plenty of annual rainfall, gui...
