Thermodynamlcs Of Sulfonamide Solutions, John W. Mauger

Open Access Dissertations

The solubility of four sulfonamides in normal alcohols and in buffered aqueous systems was determined at 25°, 30° and 37° Centigrade. The solubility pathway for a nonelectrolyte solute can be described by a process which follows a two -step sequence:

Solid/solute -- 1 --> liquid/solute -- 2 --> solute in solution.

The pathway was assumed operative for the solute-solvent systems studied, and was used as a basis for the interpretation of the thermodynamic quantities associated with the dissolution process. Heats of solution and their corresponding entropies were evaluated by semilog plots of mole fraction solute concentration versus reciprocal temperature (degrees …

Effect Of Acute Hypoxia Or Chronic Social Isolation On Brain Sensitivity And Barbiturate Metabolism, Irwin Paul Baumel

Open Access Dissertations

The mechanisms by which hypoxia or social isolation interact with drug action were investigated by the use of several parameters including drug-induced narcosis, convulsions, change in body temperature and various biochemical parameters.

Acute Hypoxia

Hypobaric hypoxia (364 mm Hg, 10% O₂) enhanced. the depressant effects of barbital, pentobarbital and chloral hydrate in mice and rats. Mice were far more sensitive than rats, barbital narcosis being affected to the greatest extent. Reduced oxygen (10%) at normal pressure also potentiated pentobarbital narcosis.

Hypothermia during hypoxia was greater in mice than in rats. Mice exposed to hypoxia at 30°C instead of …

Alteration Of Proline Hydroxylase Activity By Corticosteroids, Kenneth Robert Cutroneo

Open Access Dissertations

The biochemical mechanism by which glucocorticoids affect collagen metabolism was investigated. Triamcinolone, hydrocortisone and methylprednisolone significantly decreased liver proline hydroxylase activity in vivo. This was not a manifestation of an antianabolic effect on protein. Triamcinolone inhibited liver proline hydroxylase activity in a dose dependent manner in vivo. An observed elevation of liver hydroxylase activity in adrenalectomized animals was decreased to control level by hydrocortisone treatment.

Subdermal implants of three types of sponges (polyurethane, cellulose and polyvinyl) were used to induce granuloma growth as a model system of inflammation. The anti-inflammatory activity of corticosteroids was correlated with inhibition of …

The Solubility Of Amino Acids In Various Solvent Systems, Thomas E. Needham

Open Access Dissertations

The effect of varying solvent systems on the solubilities of glycine, L-alanine, L-valine, L-phenylalanine, and DL-aminooctanoic acid at z50 C. was studied. The entire concentration spectrum from pure water to pure semipolar solvent was used for each of. the solvent systems of methanol-water, ethanol-water, n-propanol water, isopropanol-water, and tertiary butanol-water. Further, the effect of pH variation on the solubilities of the amino acids in each of the solvent systems was studied. Aliquots were withdrawn from each solvent system studied and analyzed gravimetrically to determine the resultant solubility. It was found that the solubility behavior of those amino acids studied was …
