Briefly, 1 ml of suspension medium was taken from the 10% tissue homogenate. 0.5 ml of 30% Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) was added to it, followed by 0.5 ml of 0.8% thiobarbituric acid (TBA) reagent. The tubes were covered with aluminium foil and kept in shaking water bath for 30 minutes at 80°C. After 30 minutes, tubes were taken out and kept in ice-cold water for 30 minutes. These were centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 15 minutes.

Upon finding the actual concentrations of salicylic acid, concentration of aspirin in the flask at various times can be found using the equation [aspirin]t = [aspirin]0 – [salicylic acid], since at constant volume, number of moles of initial aspirin decrease to form salicylic acid. Initial concentration of aspirin formed as follows: [aspirin]0 = 0.212g / (180.157gmol-1 * 50/1000 L) = 0.0235 mol L-1.

Do not use more than 0.4 g. To obtain an accurate mass, weigh the sample on weighing paper, slide it into a clean (but not necessarily dry) 250 mL Erlenmeyer flask and reweigh the paper to account for any KHPh that may remain on it. Dissolve the KHPh sample in about 50 mL of CO2-free water and add 2-3 drops of 0.1% phenolphthalein indicator. Begin adding the approximately 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution from the buret while continuously swirling the flask contents. Do not open the stopcock completely.

Twenty tablets were weighed accurately and powdered. An amount of the powder equivalent to 5 mg of amoxicillin trihydrate (content of one tablet) was dissolved in 60 ml of diluent. The solution was stirred for 10 min using a magnetic stirrer and filtered into a 100 ml volumetric flask through 0.45µ nylon membrane filter. The residue was washed 3 times with 10 ml of diluent and then the volume was completed to 100 ml with the same solvent. This solution was diluted with diluents to gae a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml solution each of Amoxicillin trihydrate.

The sample was transferred to a 250 ml conical flask kept in water bath for alkali treatment. 75 ml of 17.5% caustic soda was measured using a measuring cylinder at 20°C. 15 ml of 17.5% NaOH was added and fibres were macerated gently with a flattened glass rod for 1 minute. 10 ml more NaOH was added and the solution was mixed for 45 seconds. 10 ml NaOH was again added and mixed for 15 seconds to make lump free slurry.

6 H2O) in 100 ml distilled water. (vi) 0.2(N) Sodium Hydroxide solution: Dissolve 8.0 gm sodium hydroxide in 1 l distilled water. (vii) Acetic acid: Dilute 1 part of glacial acid with 4 parts of water. (viii) Stock cyanide solution: Dissolve 2.51 gm potassium cyanide (A.R. Grade) in 1 l water, standardize this solution with 0.0192(N) silver nitrate solution.

Smaller and smaller organelles may be sendimented by successive centrifugation at increasing speed. 1ml of the homogenate (H) was pipetted into a clean microfuge tube labelled P1. The tube labelled ‘P1’ was centrifuged at 1,000g for 10 minutes to sediment the first pellet (P1). The supernatant was carefully removed with an automatic pipette and placed in a micro centrifuge tube labelled ‘P2’. The P2 tube was then placed in the refrigerated centrifuge at a speed of 15,000g for 30-60 minutes at 4°C.

1. Aims a) To find the molar absorptivity of salicylic acid by plotting a graph of absorbance against the concentration of salicylic acid, using the standard solution. b) To find the concentration of aspirin at the various time intervals using the molar absorptivity value in the previous part, initial concentration of aspirin and the concentration of salicylic acid obtained from the decomposition of the aspirin pill. c) Lastly, to calculate the rate constant of the decomposition of aspirin by plotting a graph of ln[aspirin] against time and making use of the gradient of the best fitted line along with the standard deviation. 2.Data

Linoleic acid peroxidation was initiated by the addition of 4 mM FeSO4.7H2O, incubated for 60 min at 37oC and terminated by the addition of 2 mL of ice cold trichloroacetic acid (10% v/v). An amount of 1 mL of thiobarbituric acid (1% w/v in 50 mM NaOH) was added to 1 mL of the reaction mixture, followed by heating at 95oC for 60 min. The reaction sample was read at 532 nm.7 The percentage of linoleic acid peroxidation inhibition activity was calculated using the following equation: % Inhibition = [(AB - AA)/AB] x 100, where AB, absorption of blank sample, AA, absorption of test sample.

The silver ion TLC was prepared through the following procedure: Silver nitrate was dissolved in 10 ml of distilled water. This aqueous solution of silver nitrate was absolutely mixed with 9 g of silica gel (10 ~ 40 μm particles). Then, a 10 × 5 cm TLC plate was coated with the above slurry and activated for 1 h at 90 °C before use. They were immediately transferred into a desiccator in dark for storage after cooling. 32 100 μL of afore-prepared sample solution and the mixed reference standard were diluted 100 times with ethyl acetate.
