Aceclofenac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits analgesic, antipyretic and anti-inflammatory activities. It is practically insoluble in water. The effect of hydrotropes such as urea and sodium citrate and blends (urea + sodium citrate) on the solubility of aceclofenac was investigated. The enhancement in the solubility of aceclofenac was more than 5 and 25 folds in 3...

Moesin is a member of the ERM family, a family of cross-linkers between the plasma membrane and the actin cytoskeleton, which are known to be activated by phosphorylation. Previously, we reported the RhoA and Rho kinase-dependent phosphorylation of moesin at Thr-558 in hippocampal neuronal cells by glutamate. Here we studied the induction of moesin phosphorylation by KCl (60 mm) in PC12 cells. ...

Chemical looping combustion of wood pellets (WP), char (WC), and straw (SP) was conducted in a 60 kW CLC pilot with ilmenite braunite oxygen carriers (OCs). Alkali emissions were investigated impactor-based surface ionization detector (SID) measurements. Particle size distributions for WP WC fuels dominated by coarse particles formed refractory species. For SP fuel, the distribution bimodal dis...

for evaluation of citric acid and citrate effects on bovine epididymal protoplasmic droplets, fifty bovine testes were collected in the october 2007 till june 2008 from urmia slaughterhouse and transported to the laboratory in a cool container filled with 5 °c ice pack. caudal epididymis was incised and sperm cells were put into petri dishes containing hams f10 media with 10% fetal calf serum (...

Corrosion behavior of mild steel in chloride contaminated alkaline solution has been studied for the period up to 100days. Saturated Calcium hydroxide solution was used as alkaline solution and 0.5M NaCl solution was used to accelerate mild steel corrosion. The Charge transfer resistance Rct, Current density Icorr and inhibition efficiency values were obtained from tafel polarization and electr...

background: clomiphene citrate (cc) an agonist and antagonist of estrogen, is the first line treatment in ovarian stimulation. anti-estrogenic effect of cc in endometrial thickness and cervical mucus has negative effect on pregnancy rate. letrozole is an aromatase inhibitor has been seen that has acceptable pregnancy rate compared to cc. objective: the aim of this study was to compare the effic...

in the present work, magnetic nanocomposites of the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) decorated with magnesium ferrite (mgfe2o4) nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by citrate-gel method. the shape, structure, size, and properties of the as-synthesized sample were characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ftir), x-ray diffraction pattern (xrd), transmission electron...
