Packing technology, column bed structure and chromatographic performance of 1-2-μm non-porous silicas in high-performance liquid chromatography
1989
This work is aimed at further elucidating the aggregation behaviour of micron- and submicron-size non-porous silicas and the column performance of 1–2-μm C18 silicas in reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography of low-molecular weight compounds. It is demonstrated that highly ordered, dense, porous aggregates of such silica beads were obtained by gravity settling and centrifugation. The slurry techniques applied at constant flow-rate and a pressure up to 50 MPa provided less-ordered aggregates, but generated an acceptable performance of columns when 1–2-μm C18 silica beads were employed. To operate columns of 53 mm × 4.6 mm I.D., the maximum flow-rate needs to be ca. 2.5 ml/min …
The solubilization site of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-porphyrin-Mn(III) in DPPC vesicles: A spectrophotometric and tensiometric study
2006
Abstract The solubilization site of 5,10,15,20-tetrakis-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-porphyrin-Mn(III) (MnTDPPC) in l -α-dipalmitoylphosphatidyl choline (DPPC) vesicles was determined in a systematic UV–vis spectrophotometric study. Measurements of the MnTDPPC absorbance have been conducted at constant temperatures (in the interval 30 °C ≤ T ≤ 48 °C) and varying concentrations of phospholipid. In the entire temperature range, the absorption due to MnTDCCP was found to increase with increasing DPPC concentration, until it reaches a plateau value. The data have been analyzed using a pseudo-phase model yielding the binding constant of MnTDCPP to vesicular aggregates. No significant temperature depende…
Effect of solute association on the apparent adsorption isotherm. A model of the separation of non-racemic mixtures of enantiomers in achiral chromat…
1996
This article discusses the effect of solute association on the apparent adsorption isotherm and on the chromatographic peak profile. The modelling performed has shown that dimerization of a solute in a chromatographic system gives rise to an apparent adsorption isotherm of the non-linear type. This results first of all in peak broadening. Tailing or a fronting can be observed depending on the relative retention of the monomer and the dimer. Secondly, the retention of the solute depends on the amount of sample because of the non-linear character of the adsorption isotherm. As a result, an excess of one of two analytes with absolutely identical adsorption properties i.e. optical isomers, can …
Volumes and compressibilities of pentanol in aqueous alkyltrimethylammonium bromide solutions at different temperatures
1990
Speed of sound and density properties of ternary water-tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide-pentanol system at 15, 25 and 35°C and of water-hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide-pentanol system at 25, 35 and 45°C were measured at fixed alcohol concentration as a function of surfactant concentration. The apparent molar volumes Vϕ,R and isentropic compressibilities Kϕ,RS of pentanol in micellar solutions as a function of the surfactant concentration show irregular behavior which depends on the alkyl chain length of the surfactant and tends to disappear with increasing temperature. These anomalies are ascribed to micellar transitions. For both surfactants at high concentrations, Vϕ,R decrease and …
Determination of rate constants of ion transfer kinetics across immiscible electrolyte solutions
1998
Abstract The rotating diffusion cell was used to study ion transfer across the interface between two immiscible electrolyte solutions. Tetrabutylammonium was chosen as the transferring cation and lithium chloride as the supporting electrolyte in aqueous phase. Tetrabutylammonium tetrakis-(4-fluorophenyl)-borate in 2-nitrophenyl-octylether was used as the organic electrolyte solution supported in the porous membrane. The quasi-steady state current–voltage curves were measured both by applying potential steps and by imposing a slow potential sweep. The analysis of experimental results was based on the comparison with the theoretical current–voltage curves and on the Koutecky–Levich plots. The…

2007
Abstract The essential oil isolated from the aerial parts of Gynura cusimbua was analyzed by GC and GC/MS. Forty-seven constituents totaling 91.92% of the oil were identified. The major constituents of the oil are myrcene (31.0%), β- phellandrene (12.43%), eugenol (6.34%), α-humulene (6.20%), dodecyl acrylate (6.09%), α-copaene (5.61%), phytol (3.21%), germacrene D (3.0%), cryptone (2.04%), 2,4-ditertbutylphenol (1.62%), α-pinene (1.33%), α-cadinene (1.26%), caryophyllene oxide (1.24%) and β-caryophyllene (1.08%).
Evaluation of molecular mass and tacticity of polyvinyl alcohol by non-equilibrium capillary electrophoresis of equilibrium mixtures of a polymer and…
2011
Non-equilibrium capillary electrophoresis of equilibrium mixtures (NECEEM) has been used to characterize polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). Commercial PVA samples with different molecular masses, from M(w)=15 up to 205 kDa, were used. According to the (13)C NMR spectra, the samples also differed in tacticity (stereoregularity). Mixtures of PVA and the anionic azo-dye Congo Red (CR) were injected in the presence of a borate buffer. The electropherograms gave a band and a peak due to the residual PVA-CR complex and the excess dye, respectively, plus a superimposed exponential decay due to the partial dissociation of the complex during migration. The stoichiometry of the PVA-CR complex, q=[monomer]/[dye…
Solitary Rectal Ulcer
1979
Solitary ulcers of the rectum may be traumatic in origin and caused by thermometers, occasionally by digital removal of a fecal impaction, or by deviate sexual behavior. Solitary rectal ulcers may also be a manifestation of Crohn’s disease. Very rarely, ectopic gastric mucosa is their cause. For the vast majority of solitary rectal ulcers, the explanation remains unknown. Occasionally, the ulcers are accompanied by localized inflammation of the mucosa within the distal segment of the rectum with edema, erythema, and circumscribed whitish flecks in a thickened bowel wall covered by excessive secretions. The changes are found predominantly in the ventral portion of the rectum, and in contrast…
Fistulae (Rectovaginal, Rectovesical)
1979
The clinical manifestations of a fistula — stool from the vagina, air from the urethra — are often difficult to recognize because the fistulous opening is hidden by the edematous and swollen mucosa. Larger defects occur particularly after radiation therapy and with Crohn’s disease.
