A review of the literature was made on the physiological and environmental factors affecting pharmacokinetic behavior of organic solvent vapors in relation to biological monitoring of exposure to organic solvents. Among the physiological factors the importance is attached to body build (body weight and body fat content), sex, and physical activity. Environmental factors are centered on cigarett...

morphological changes in polyvinyl butyral (pvb) electrospun nanofibres can be acquired by preparation of pvb spinning solution in different solvents.  accordingly, three solvents, including ethyl alcohol, n-butanol and isopropanol, with diverse physical properties (e.g. boiling point, density, dipole moment and dielectric constant) were used to prepare polyvinyl butyral (pvb) spinning solution...

In this communication, we report a physical method for the fabrication of organic solvent and surfactant-resistant barriers on paper-based fluidic devices. When nonwoven polypropylene sheet is embossed with a steel mold, the embossed region acts as a physical barrier that can prevent the flow of liquids. Embossed polypropylene barriers not only block water, but also block organic solvents and s...

Organic solvents are constantly present in the pharmaceutical production processes. They are usually used at any step of the synthesis pathway during the drug product formulation process. Organic solvents play an important role in the pharmaceutical industry, and appropriate selection of the solvents for the synthesis of drug substance may enhance the yield, or determine characteristics such as...

A method to select appropriate green solvents for the promotion of a class of organic reactions has been developed. The method combines knowledge from industrial practice and physical insights with computer-aided property estimation tools for selection/design of solvents. In particular, it employs estimates of thermodynamic properties to generate a knowledge base of reaction, solvent and enviro...
