1 day ago · Zinc Acetate Dihydrate’s applications indeed stretch into various unique niches. In the pharmaceutical industry, it’s used as a buffer in insulin formulations for diabetics. It acts as a taste enhancer in certain food products, leveraging zinc’s natural ability to modulate taste perceptions. In environmental engineering, it’s even used ...
4 days ago · Each of the extracted samples was then esterified using a methanolic sodium methoxide solution and treated with sulfuric acid in methanol. After neutralising the samples, the fats were re-extracted using n-hexane. The hexane layer was then dried with anhydrous sodium sulfate.
2 days ago · Excess acetone was removed by washing with 100 mL of distilled water, and the aqueous phase was discarded. This extraction process was repeated twice. The petroleum ether phase was then passed through Whatman No. 1 filter paper topped with 5 g of anhydrous sodium sulfate to eliminate any remaining water.
1 day ago · When liquid soaps or detergents like sodium lauryl sulfates (SLS) are applied to a surface, surfactant molecules spring into action, forming a thin layer over the dirt and grease. This layer, known as a micelle, traps the oily particles within its core, effectively isolating them from the surface. As water is introduced, it surrounds the ...
2 days ago · Filter paper using anhydrous sodium sulfate (5 g) to filter the petroleum ether portion and remove the residual water. The volume of the extracts obtained was made up to 25 mL with petroleum ether. After these processes, the absorbance values of samples were measured at 450 nm in a Spectrophotometer.
5 days ago · The food industry relies significantly on the application of chemical additives, but their overuse is a factor contributing to a range of gastrointestinal, neurological, and immunological diseases. The impacts of various contaminants and food additives on mental disorders are explored in the following sections and summarized in Figure 2 [7–10].
1 day ago · Anhydrous magnesium sulfate (MgSO 4) (CDH ®), anhydrous sodium sulfate (Na 2 SO 4) and anhydrous sodium acetate (NaOAC) (Merck EMPARTA ®) were purchased. Deionised water with resistivity of 18.2 MΩ/cm was collected from Bio-Age water purification system (Direct Ultra-NB-1888, Bio-Age Equipment and Services, India).
