Abstract A simplified technic for the determination of serum protein-bound iodine (PBI) is presented. Endogenously labeled l131 PBI is completely recovered. The technic is based on the method of Barker et al. (1) and includes the following modifications: The number of washes of the precipitated serum proteins are decreased. Unashed iodide standards are used in a sodium carbonate solution rather than an internal standard. A temperature-correction formula is employed to allow the cericarsenite-iodide reaction to be carried out at room temperature, and a stable cerate color is produced with brucine sulfate so that the colorimetry is carried out with greater convenience. The serum PBI concentrations are read directly from a graph, which simplifies the calculations.

An efficient and simple synthesis of substituted 2-amino-4H-chromene-3-carbonitriles was developed by the one-pot and three-component reaction of a mixture of corresponding substituted benzaldehydes, resorcinol, and malononitrile in the presence of sodium carbonate solution as a catalyst at room temperature.

A method for staining mitochondria is described in which sections are overstained with acid fuchsine, differentiated in sodium carbonate solution, and counterstained with a methyl blue acting as an acid dye.

Silk from Bombyx mori has two main proteins: fibroin and sericin. Fibroin is a protein that exhibits good biocompatibility and high surface reactivity, desirable properties for many biomedical applications. Sericin is related with adverse immune response in some medical uses. Therefore, its removal (degumming) is desirable in almost all fields, including the textile industry and biological applications. In this study, three degumming methods (distilled water, liquid neutral detergent and sodium carbonate solution) were evaluated using Raman spectroscopy. Degummed silk treated with sodium carbonate solution exhibits a pattern consistent with previous studies for sericin-free fibroin, and significant differences with the untreated silk pattern. Also, degummed fibroin fibers were dissolved in a calcium chloride solution, in pursuit of a more versatile material. Additionally, different porous membranes of dialysis tubes were tested to remove residual salts, and were compared by conductivity measurements and EDS analysis, identifying good performance for an affordable food cellulose membrane. The results showed that it is possible to obtain fibroin with adequate chemical properties, using low-cost process and membrane of dialysis tubes.

Abstract This method for determination of haloperidol in plasma is based on "high-performance" isocratic liquid chromatography with the use of a C8 bonded reversed-phase column at room temperature. Haloperidol and the internal standard (chloro-substituted analog) are extracted from alkalinized plasma into isoamyl alcohol/heptane (1.5/98.5 by vol) and back-extracted into dilute H2SO4. The aqueous phase is directly injected onto the column. The mobile phase is a 30/45/25 (by vol) mixture of phosphate buffer (16.5 mmol/L, pH 7.0), acetonitrile, and methanol. Unlike other liquid-chromatographic procedures for haloperidol, commonly used psychotropic drugs do not interfere. Analysis can be completed within an hour. The procedure is extremely sensitive (1.0 microgram/L) and is well reproducible (CV 5.6% for a 2.5 micrograms/L concentration in plasma).

AbstractThe synthesis of 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-3-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1,2,4-triazine (5a) from 4-methoxybenzoin, 4-methoxybenzil, or 4-methoxybenzoin semicarbazone and semi-carbazide hydrochloride is reported. The condensation of 4-methoxybenzil with thiosemi-carbazide yielded 6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-3-thioxo-2,3-dihydro-I,2,4-triazine (5b) which was converted to its 3-oxo analogue 5 a with acetic anhydride. Reduction of 5 a and 5 b with zinc and aqueous acetic acid led to the corresponding 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1,2,4-triazines 6 a and 6b, respectively. Oxidation of 5 b with iodine in sodium carbonate solution afforded bis [6-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-phenyl-1,2,4-triazin-3-yl]disulphide (7). Analogous triazines were prepared by condensing 3,3'-diiodobenzil with semicarbazide hydrochloride or thiosemicarbazide.
