Solubilities of corundum (Al2O3) and wollastonite (CaSiO3) were measured in H2O–NaCl solutions at 800 C and 10 kbar and NaCl concentrations up to halite saturation by weight-loss methods. Additional data on quartz solubility at a single NaCl concentration were obtained as a supplement to previous work. Single crystals of synthetic corundum, natural wollastonite or natural quartz were equilibrat...

CONTEXT Diacerein (DCN) has low aqueous solubility (3.197 mg/L) and, consequently, low oral bioavailability (35%-56%). To increase both the solubility and dissolution rate of DCN while maintaining its crystalline nature, high pressure homogenization was used but with only a few homogenization cycles preceded by a simple bottom-up technique. METHODS The nanosuspensions of DCN were prepared usi...

in this study, the ion association phenomenon in the saturated solution of kcl in the mixed solvent(methanol+water) was studied. the solubility of this compound in the mixed solvent (methanol+water by value percent of methanol = 60%), and in the presence of various molarities of nano3 wasdetermined by the solvent evaporation method at 25.0°c. the results enable us to estimate the valueof thermo...

In order to investigate the relationship between the thermodynamics and kinetics of protein aggregation, we compared the solubility of proteins with their aggregation rates. We found a significant correlation between these two quantities by considering a database of protein solubility values measured using an in vitro reconstituted translation system containing about 70% of Escherichia coli pro...

Bioaccessibility in vitro tests measure the solubility of materials in surrogate biofluids. However, the lack of uniform methods and the effects of variable test parameters on material solubility limit interpretation. One aim of this study was to measure and compare bioaccessibility of selected economically important alloys and metals in surrogate physiologically based biofluids representing or...

Complexation is very relevant in pharmacy as a means of modifying the pharmacological, toxicological and physicochemical properties of drugs.In this study, iron (III) complexes of ciprofloxacin, ampicillin, amoxicillin, and cloxacillin were synthesized through systematic choice of solvents and reaction conditions. A Schiff base derived from Isatin (Indole-1,2-dione) and ethylenediamine, and its...

N,N-bis(beta-Hydroxyethyl)dithiocarbamate (DHDC), N-methyl-N-hydroxyethyldithiocarbamate (MHDC), and N-ethyl-N-hydroxyethyldithiocarbamate (EHDC) were compared for their relative efficacies in promoting organ mobilization and excretion of metallothionein-bound cadmium (Cd). An attempt was made to correlate certain aspects of their pharmacodynamic properties with the octanol/aqueous partition co...

Curcumin is a phytoconstituent with wide range of biological activity. It is poorly soluble in water. In the present study a new dissolution medium was developed, as there is no validated dissolution method available in the literature. The composition of the dissolution medium was selected on the basis of solubility data at 37 degrees . Solubility data revealed that addition of surfactant may b...

The water solubility of salts is ordinarily dictated by lattice energy and ion solvation. However, in the case of low melting salts also known as ionic liquids, lattice energy is immaterial and differences in hydrophobicity largely account for differences in their water solubility. In this contribution, the activity coefficients of ionic liquids in water are split into cation and anion contribu...

Stable solutions of conjugated poly(phenylene vinylene)s and poly(phenylene ethynylene)s in nematic liquid crystals are reported. The polymers all contain triptycene units fused into their backbones to obtain the high solubility needed to maintain solubility in complex liquid crystalline media. The polymer backbones align with the director of the nematic liquid crystal, and by applying electric...
