This chapter focuses on the receiver section in detail and talks about the various components used in the design of the receiver circuit. The receiver was used to detect the signals that were being sent by the transmitter section. The receiver front end consists generally of a photo-detector and a current to voltage converter. However the front end that was used for the experiment consisted of a collector lens, an optical filter, a photo-detector and an operational amplifier used in a trans-i...
The present work was to design and evaluation of mouth dissolving tablets of Cetirizine hydrochloride by using superdisintegrants. A novel approach has been made to develop Cetirizine hydrochloride mouth dissolving tablets by including clove oil as flavor and local anesthetic on taste buds. The drug and excipients were characterized using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) techniques. The drug excipient blend was evaluated for examined physicochemica...
It has been developed a small-scale, simple, and rapid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) procedure in combination with fiber optic-linear array detection spectrophotometry (FO-LADS) with charge-coupled device (CCD) detector benefiting from a micro-cell. The official reference methods (ASTM D2330 - 02, ISO 7875-1) which require tedious procedures were replaced with modified method, as a result, it has achieved a major reduction in sample size, elimination of the use of expensive...
This experiment is about testing vinegar and bleach, which are close to our lives. To test foods and other household products is important because not all of them are quality products, there must be some defective products. These defective products may not useful or even have negative effects to human. To test them can check if they are quality. For these reasons, food inspection agency is set up in every country. Vinegar and bleach are familiar things in kitchen. Vinegar is produced by bacte...
This review focuses on the most recent findings about the role of leptin in onset, development, clinical manifestations and outcomes of multiple sclerosis and applications of a possible leptin antagonist for multiple sclerosis patients and strategies for designing such an antagonist. Organization: After an introduction to leptin , we will focus on its role in the immune system and autoimmunity. Afterwards we will review the literature around leptin and MS and finally will discuss the relevant...
This study demonstrates incompatibility studies of acyclovir in its physical mixtures with lactose and also in 3 different tablet brands. Initially, differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) was used to asses the compatibility of drug and lactose. The FTIR spectrum was also compared with that of pure drug and excipient. Although DSC results indicated incompatibility with lactose, FTIR spectra were mostly unmodified due to peaks overlapping. Isothermally stressed physical mixture and pure drug ...
Empty and drug loaded liposomes were prepared with different lipid compositions and by different methods. These liposomes were analysed as this types of liposome have particle size in the range needed for aerosol delivery and delivery of drug to the deep lung deposition. In order to interpret which parameters are significant for the preparation of liposomes that can be used for such applications, eight different lipid membrane compositions were studied. The drug molecule used was tobramycin, ...
This chapter describes briefly about the semi-active suspension system and the magnetorheological damper used in the system. A detail explanation emphasizing the semi-active magnetorheological damper suspension system is explained and an overview on semi-active suspension system available in the market is presented. This chapter also focuses on the research works done by researchers on semi-active suspension system specifically on the development of magnetorheological damper model. Gaps in re...
Somatotropin is a protein hormone derived from anterior pituitary gland. Its secretion is regulated by two hypothalamic peptides that are growth hormone releasing factor for stimulating activities of growth hormone or somatostatin for inhibiting the release of growth hormone (Tuggle et al., 1996). Somatotropin in bovine somatotropin (bST) and porcine somatotropin (pST) is similar up to 90% in the amino acid sequence (about 191 amino acids) (Etherton et al., 1993; Bauman et al., 1993). However...
Abstract: - This paper examines the effectiveness of a glove specifically designed to compensate human hand tremor by incorporating a type of piezoelectric actuator. In this paper, the experimental results are divided into two parts involving actual human hand tremor and model hand-arm tremor. Both experiments were done using same measurement equipments, experimental setup and programming to evaluate the effectiveness of the glove in reducing the hand tremor. The initial experiment was done b...
