An Effective Application of the Spectrophotometric and Thermodynamic Methods for the Determination of Thiamine Hydrochloride | Book Publisher International

An effective application of the spectrophotometric and thermodynamic methods have been described for the determination of thiamine hydrochloride. The spectrophotometric method was based on charge transfer complexation reaction using thiamine as  n-electron donor and 2, 3 dichloro-5,6-dicyano -1,4-benzoquinone (DDQ) as a π-acceptor to form a highly coloured species  with 1:1 stoichiometric ratio. The coloured product was quantified spectrometrically at 474nm under the established experimental conditions.  Beer’s law was obeyed over the concentration ranges of 5-80μg/ml. The Apparent molar absorptivity was calculated to be 1.08 x 103 Lmol-1 cm-1 with the corresponding Sandell sensitivity of 2.68. The Ross equation was used for studying the thermodynamic parameters and result reveals that ∆S was calculated to be between 67.13J/mol and 66.70J/mol, ∆H = -2.87kJ/mol. The association constants were found to decrease from 30°C to 60°C with increase in molar absorptivity. Also high values of association constant were seen which ranged from 500Lmol-1 cm-1 to 1667Lmol-1 cm-1. The proposed methods were applied successfully to the determination of thiamine hydrochloride in pure and commercial forms with average recovery of 96.2% ± 0.016. Statistical comparison of the results were performed using student’s t-test and f-test at 95% confidence level

Greening Regional Airports: A Vision for Carbon Neutral Infrastructure | Chapter 12 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 3

 This study provides an overview of the energy demand of a regional airport, divided into individual time horizons. The electrification of aircraft systems raises the question of whether airports will be among the largest electricity consumers in our infrastructure in the future. Sustainability and especially emission reductions are significant challenges for airports that are currently being addressed. The Clean Sky 2 project GENESIS addresses the environmental sustainability of hybrid-electric 50-passenger aircraft systems in a life cycle perspective to support the development of a technology roadmap for the transition to sustainable and competitive electric aircraft systems. This article originates from the GENESIS research and describes various options for ground power supply at a regional airport. Potential solutions for airport infrastructure with a short (2030), medium (2040), and long (2050) time horizon are proposed. In addition to the environmental and conservation benefi...

There is No Standard Model of ZFC and ZFC2 | Chapter 03 | Advances in Mathematics and Computer Science Vol. 1

In this Chapter we obtain a contradictions in formal set theories under assumption that these theories have omega-models or nonstandard model with standard part. An possible generalization of Lob’s theorem is considered. Main results are: (i) ¬Con(ZF C+ ∃ M ZFC st ), (ii) ¬Con(N F+ ∃ M NF st ), (iii) ¬Con(ZF C 2 ), (iv) let k be an inaccessible cardinal then ¬Con(ZF C+ ∃ κ), (v) ¬Con(ZF C+ (V=L)), (vi) ¬Con(ZF+ (V=L)).

Occipital Dermal Sinus Tract Causing Craniospinal Infection: A Review | Chapter 13 | New Visions in Medicine and Medical Science Vol. 4

  Dermal sinus is a rare congenital condition characterized by a pathological tract connecting the skin to deeper tissues of the central nervous system, potentially leading to severe infectious complications. It arises from a failure in the separation of ectodermal layers during early gestation. Diagnosing dermal sinus tract in newborns requires a careful physical examination, focusing on midline dimples in the occipital region associated with cutaneous abnormalities like hairy nevus or hyperpigmentation. The presence of drainage, abnormal hair distribution, or localized swelling may indicate a sinus tract. Regular examination for dimples or sinuses is recommended for infants and children with recurrent meningitis or infections. Early detection is crucial to prevent severe complications like meningitis, with Staphylococcus aureus being a common causative organism. Neuroradiological studies, including computed tomography (CT) scan and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), with histopath...
