Total surface area 6cm² Total surface area 12cm² Total surface area 24cm² Fig.2. Surface area is inversely proportional to particle size Methods of preparations: There are different methods involved in preparation of nanocrystals. But all of them uses either of these basic principles. Milling method, precipitation method, homogenization method and their composites. Generally used methods for preparations are: 1) Bottom up technique 2) Top down technique Pearl/ball milling High pressure homogenization Micro fluidizer technology Piston gap homogenization in water Piston gap homogenization in non-aqueous …show more content…
The principle involved in this process is jet stream. Jet stream homogenizers uses the same principle e.g. micro-fluidizer. Collision chamber designed is either Y- type or Z- type(C). Stabilizers such as surfactants or phospholipids are necessary for controlling the desired particle size. This method is not very convenient for large scale production but still can be used for production of soft drugs. SkyePharma Canada Inc. uses this process for production of submicron particles of poorly soluble drugs …show more content…
This process takes place in a conical or cylindrical cyclone, solutions of drug Nano suspensions produced by HPH are sprayed feed from the up to down, even hot air is applied from the same direction and spherical shape particles are obtained. Polymers, sugars or sugar alcohols like mannitol or sorbitol are water soluble matrix which are used for drug Nano suspension formulation. Atomizer is used for spraying which rotates rapidly and due to the centrifugal effect scattering to the solution takes place. Nitrogen gas or air at constant pressure are applied via outer tube. Spraying can be done by nozzle which leads to very small particles i.e. surface area increases leading to fast drying. Particle size, fluidity and drying speed can be optimized and viscosity, temperature and spray rate of the solution should be maintained. The nanocrystals formed are filled into hard gelatin or sachets or tablets for further use. (A, C). Freeze drying This process is used for removal of water from the complex. Method involves mixture of drug solvent together with mannitol is cooled rapidly, leads to separation of drug in nanocrystals form enclosed by a matrix of mannitol which decreases the instability of the Nanocrystalized drug i.e. prevents from sticking to each other. Other methods used for drying are spray freeze drying and lyophilization(C).
This layer is virtually invisible as it has a very small thickness and is also transparent. In order to prevent the fogging and dirt on glasses, the coating must be under UV illumination for it to sustain the hydrophobic property. 3.2.2 Methods to fabricate TiO2-SWCNT composite There are enormous methods available to prepare the nanocomposite of CNT and TiO2 which are sol-gel method, electrospinning method, hydrothermal and more. 3.2.2.1 Sol-gel synthesis Sol-gel is a method in which small molecules are used to produce solid materials. The method is used for the fabrication of metal oxides.
For the miniscale techniques used in this lab, 10 mL of cyclohexane was used and 20 mL of toluene was used. For the microscale technique,
Thus, a higher percent yield was calculated for acetaminophen. Although, a second filtration was performed; however, a very low concentration of acetaminophen was recovered as a result of human errors, and the transfer of solution/solid contributed to product loss. However, the mass use to calculate percent yield was the first mass recorded because it may be more consistent than the mass measured after the second filtration. However, for further experiments, the percent yield must be calculated with the corresponding mass of product (actual yield) even though there is loss of product, the actual yield is the final concentration of the recovered product in the experiment. Thus, the results may be more conclusive if the actual percent yield was used.
Copper Transformations Prelab Questions Three metals ions are Magnesium, Iron, and Nickel. Iron is used in the sea with iron rich minerals, for substances. Iron was also used in the formation of earth.
It forms a complex with HBr and extracts it from the aqueous phase into the organic phase where the alkene is. This dehydrates the acid, making it more reactive so that the addition reaction is possible. Rapid stirring is required in order to maximize the surface area
The purpose of stacking gel is to make sure all the proteins start separating at approximately the same time. The pore size is larger so that it is easier for large protein to move in order to catch up with the smaller protein. As heating, SDS denature the proteins, the proteins are loaded onto the wells on the stacking gel. The denatured proteins have a uniform mass to negative charge ratio. Since the current run from negative (top) to positive (bottom), the proteins move toward the bottom.
These include multiple doses of sterile products combined or pooled to prepare a product that will be administered either to multiple patients or one patient on multiple occasions. More than three commercially available sterile products are used to produce the compound and the compounding processes are more complex. High-Risk levels are those prepared from nonsterile ingredients, including manufactured products not intended for sterile routes of administration. High-Risk level are compounded using a nonsterile device prior to terminal sterilization, contains nonsterile water that are stored for more than 6 hours before sterilization, they are exposed to conditions worse than ISO Class 5 air quality for
Then, a column chromatography is used to separate the components of the mixture into individual fractions. After that, a thin layer
3. To purify and identify the product, recrystallization is used in order to purify the product, then melting point and TLC techniques are used to identify the product. Theory 4.
It is commonly used in organic chemistry laboratories suction filtration or vacuum filtration. The solution can be supersaturated, unsaturated or saturated. Vacuum filtrations is used to assemble recrystallized
Experiment #1 Isolation of Caffeine from Tea Date: 11.09.14 Prepared by: Alibek Abilev Purpose The aim of the experiment was to isolate crude caffeine from tea leaves by using liquid – liquid extraction with methylene chloride, purify the crude substance by performing sublimation and determine the melting point of both crude and pure caffeine. Safety Lab coat, goggles, gloves. Methylene chloride is a carcinogenic substance, therefore should be kept in a well-ventilated place.
Purpose/Introduction The process of recrystallization is an important method of purifying a solid organic substance using a hot solution as a solvent. This method will allow the separation of impurities. We will analyze Benzoic Acid as it is dissolved and recrystallized in water and in a solvent of Methanol and water. Reaction/Summary
(Molarity)(Volume)(Molar mass) The pellets were dissolved thoroughly then was used in filling up the 100 mL volumetric flask. The solution was mixed well
PROCEDURE DETERMINATION OF PHOSPHORIC ACID IN THE SOFT DRINKS Black coloured soft drinks such as Coke from Coca Cola and Pepsi contains Phosphoric Acid in them. An experiment will be conducted here to determine the quantity of Phosphoric Acid content in the black coloured soft drinks. In the beginning of the experiment the preparation and standardization of a base solution will be made.
