Abstract:
The Hammett acidity functions (H0) of mixtures of Brønsted acids-ionic liquids were measured using a 13C NMR probe and several UV-Vis probes. Successful measurements for all of the systems were demonstrated using the UV-Vis probes. A suitable probe was chosen and used to measure each mixture with the estimation of H0 values from the 13C NMR probe. The 13C NMR probe can be used to calculate the acidity of the mixtures approximately while the UV-Vis probe gave more precise results. The H0 of Brønsted acids-ionic liquids systems with different acids were successfully measured using the 13C NMR pr

The Hammett acidity functions (H0) of mixtures of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate with sulfuric acid, and 1-butylimidazolium hydrogensulfate with sulfuric acid, were measured using UV dyes. A linear correlation between H0 value and the concentration of sulfuric acid was observed for both mixtures. H0 values of the mixtures were also measured using an NMR probe, mesityl oxide. The H0 values calculated from the mesityl oxide experiments agreed well with the H0 values calculated from the UV dye data. 1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, 1-butylimidazolium hydrogensulfate, 1-bu

Abstract:
Many proteins are unstable in solution and must be formulated in the solid state. This has led to an increase in the use of lyophilized dosage forms. Lyophilization is a complicated processing method consisting of three major steps: freezing, primary drying, and secondary drying. This can lead to several formulation stability challenges including changes in ionization within the matrix, phase separation of the protein drug from added stabilizers, sufficient mobility within the system for movement of reactive species and protein side chains, and crystallization of excipients upon storage.

Analysis of the molecular speciation of organic compounds in solution is essential for the understanding of ionic complexation.

Abstract:
Hydrocarbons are an abundant resource of carbon and hydrogen. For example, fossil can be used to produce useful organic compounds. However hydrocarbons seem to be inert. Thus, the activation of the C-H bond is a popular research area. Metals play the main role in most catalysts that convert hydrocarbons to starting materials in industry. The study of metals is important because the properties of the metal core greatly influences the reactivity of a catalyst.1 The study of the chemistry of metals in the gas phase provides valuable information about the properties of metals.

Abstract:
Background: Staphylococcus aureus readily colonises human epithelia despite the presence of innate defences including mild acidity and cationic antimicrobial peptides (CAMPs). Reduced sensitivity of S. aureus to these defences appears partly due to the increased biosynthesis of lysyl-phosphatidylglycerol (L-PG) in its plasma membrane. The precise mechanisms by which L-PG facilitates tolerance to acidity and CAMPs remain under-investigated, due to the lipid’s lability in mild aqueous conditions. This study examines the role of L-PG in responses to epithelial defences and describes the synthesis

Water quality degradation is the foremost environmental issue faced by the mining industry. Negative impacts on water quality are commonly associated with unmitigated drainage emanating from sulfide-bearing mine waste deposits. These impacts stem from the liberation of acidity, sulfate, metals (e.g. Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb), and trace elements (e.g. Co, As, Cd, Sb and Tl) during the oxidation of sulfide minerals. Drainage at operational mines is commonly treated using techniques such as chemical oxidation and acid neutralization, which can succeed in achieving regulatory discharge guidelines. Ho
