Measurements and correlation of liquid–liquid equilibria of 4-methyl-2-pentanone+ethanol+water and 4-methyl-2-pentanone+n-butanol+water ternary syste…
2012
Abstract In this work, experimental liquid–liquid equilibria data of the systems 4-methyl-2-pentanone + ethanol + water and 4-methyl-2-pentanone + n-butanol + water are presented. The liquid–liquid equilibria of both systems have been measured between 283.2 and 323.2 K. The NRTL and UNIQUAC models were applied to fit the data for both ternary systems. The interaction parameters obtained from both models successfully correlated the equilibrium compositions. The binodal lines were compared to the values predicted by the UNIFAC-LLE and UNIFAC models. Moreover, the solvent capability of 4-methyl-2-pentanone was checked in order to separate these azeotropic mixtures alcohol + water.
Viscosity studies of solutions of water inn-aliphatic alcohols at various temperatures
1979
Viscosity measurements have been made at 25°C on solutions of water inn-propanol, and at 15, 25, 35, and 45°C on solutions of water inn-butanol,n-pentanol, andn-hexanol over the respective solubility ranges. For most of the systems, water decreases the viscosity of the dry alcohols, while for the lower members of the series literature data report an increase in viscosity on addition of water. These results are rationalized in terms of two kinds of interaction between water molecules and alcohols: participation of water molecules in chain formation for the lower alcohols and formation of water-centered complexes for butanol and higher alcohols.
Fast, non-toxic, and inexpensive n-butanol preparation of recombinant plasmids
2000
Various commercial and non-commercial plasmid preparation protocols are currently available. However, the kits are expensive and many of the protocols contain toxic chemicals. Here we present a novel, optimized and, therefore, very advantageous plasmid preparation protocol using n-butanol. The preparation can be performed quickly and no toxic chemicals are used, at overall costs of about one cent per plasmid preparation.Atualmente vários protocolos comerciais e não comerciais para preparação de plasmídeos estão disponíveis. Contudo, os kits são caros e muitos dos protocolos contêm substâncias químicas tóxicas. Apresentamos neste trabalho um novo, otimizado e portanto muito vantajoso protoco…
