Background: The dispersed phase volume fraction plays key role in oil-in-water emulsion stability by different mechanisms like partial flocculation, depletion flocculation and bridging flocculation. Since the mentioned mechanism is affected by emulsifier concentration presented in system, the major aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dispersed phase volume fraction on physical st...

Quaternary nitrogen compounds are being widely used as sanitizers and toimpart bacteriostatic properties to fabrics. When properly applied, the residual quaternary may assist materially in clinical problems associated with the activities of microorganisms in infants' garments, bedding, and similar articles. Directions commonly furnished for the use of these agents specify a unit weight of produ...

The apparent partial specific volume, phi, of a protein (or other macromolecule) and the absolute concentration, c, can be determined from the densimetry of solutions and diffusates in 1H2O , 2H2O and 1H2O/2H2O mixtures if the ratios of concentrations (relative concentrations) are known. The densimetry method allows a non-destructive check on total macromolecule concentrations without prior kno...
