A novel yet simple, rapid and robust thermometric endpoint titration (TET) method for the determination of sodium in various foodstuffs is described. Sodium reacts exothermically with aluminium in the presence of an excess of potassium and fluoride ions to form NaK2AlF6 (“elpasolite”). This reaction forms the basis of a robust, reliable analytical procedure suitable for routine process control....

The relationship between the binding of sodium n-dodecyl sulphate and protons to histone H1 has been investigated by equilibrium dialysis and titrimetry. The data cover the pH range 3.2-10 and surfactant concentrations up to 3.0×10-3 mol dm-3. A theoretical approach based on the binding potential concept of Wyman is presented and has been used to make estima...

Introduction: Antiseptics have been used for many years in human and veterinary medicine. Over the years, lengthening of surgical procedures surgery increasingly frequent use inert material has increased risk infections. This was why skin antisepsis become very important prevention infections wound resulting complications. In Mali, at Gabriel Touré University Hospital, most prescribed family an...

One titrimetric and two spectrophotometric methods are described for the determination of ketotifen fumarate (KTF) in bulk drug and in tablets using cerium(IV) as the oxidimetric agent. In titrimetry (method A), the drug was treated with a measured excess of cerium(IV) in H2SO4 medium and after a standing time of 10 min, the surplus oxidant was determined by back titration with iron(II). The sp...

One titrimetric and two spectrophotometric methods which are simple, sensitive, and economic are described for the determination of sumatriptan succinate (STS) in bulk drug and in tablet dosage form using N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) as a brominating agent. In titrimetry, aqueous solution of STS is treated with a measured excess of NBS in acetic acid medium, and after the bromination of STS is judg...

The present paper is intended as a contribution to the specific chemistry of the naturally occurring hydroxyamino acids. Certain established differences in the chemistry of the acyl derivatives of amino and hydroxy groups have so far not been utilized in the study of hydroxyamino acids, and in particular no simple method for the preparation of their 0-acetyl derivatives has been developed. The ...
