Effect of calcium formate as an additive on desulfurization in power plants.
SO2 in flue gas needs to be eliminated to alleviate air pollution. As the quality of coal decreases and environmental standard requirements become more stringent, the high-efficiency desulfurization of flue gas faces more and more challenges. As an economical and environmentally friendly solution, the effect of calcium formate as an additive on desulfurization efficiency in the wet flue…

Absorption and elimination of formate following oral administration of calcium formate in female human subjects.
Calcium formate is a water-soluble salt of an essential mineral nutrient with potential for use as a dietary calcium supplement. Formate ion is a product of endogenous and xenobiotic metabolism, but sustained high plasma formate concentrations (such as occur in cases of methanol poisoning) are toxic to the retina and optic nerve. Humans and primates have…

In vitro antimicrobial properties of caprylic acid, monocaprylin, and sodium caprylate against Dermatophilus congolensis.
Abstract OBJECTIVE: To determine antimicrobial effects of caprylic acid and its derivatives, monocaprylin and sodium caprylate, on Dermatophilus congolensis and to determine effects of caprylic acid on the ultrastructure of D congolensis by use of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). SAMPLE: 3 strains of D congolensis (33411, 33413, and 14639). PROCEDURES: Strains of D congolensis were…

Caprylate as the albumin-selective modifier to improve IgG purification with hydrophobic charge-induction chromatography.
Abstract Hydrophobic charge-induction chromatography (HCIC) is a novel downstream bioprocessing technology for antibody purification and it has several advantages over traditional purification processes. However, its separation selectivity still needs to be improved. In this work, sodium caprylate (NaCA) was used as the selective modifier to improve IgG purification from serum albumin containing feedstock with a…

Fluorescence study of the membrane-perturbing action of sodium caprylate as related to promotion of drug absorption.
The medium-chain fatty acid sodium caprylate released 6-carboxyfluorescein (CF), a model compound of water-soluble drugs, from the rat small intestinal brush border membrane (BBM) vesicles and liposomes containing CF. Caprylate caused a decrease in the fluorescence polarization of dansyl chloride, fluorescein isothiocyanate, and eosin maleimide covalently labeled to BBM. This indicates a perturbation of the BBM. However,…

Dosage Effect of Zinc Glycine Chelate on Zinc Metabolism and Gene Expression of Zinc Transporter in Intestinal Segments on Rat
Abstract Zinc plays an essential role in various fundamental biological processes. The focus of this research was to investigate the dosage effect of zinc glycine chelate (Zn-Gly) on zinc metabolism and the gene expression of zinc transporters in intestinal segments. A total of 30 4-week-old SD rats were randomized into five treatment groups. The basal…

Elastic and hydrostatic behaviour of a zinc dietary supplement, zinc glycinate hydrate†
Coordination polymer based dietary supplement tablets are commonly consumed in our daily life and play an important role in the pharmaceutical industry. To fully understand their tableting process, their mechanical properties need to be comprehensively studied. In this work, the elastic and hydrostatic behaviour of a zinc supplement, zinc glycinate hydrate (Zn[O2CCH2NH2]2·H2O), have been studied via density…

Determination of Zn-, Cu- and Mn-glycinate complexes in feed samples and in-vitro and in-vivo assays to assess their bioaccessibility in feed samples.
A method was developed for the quantification of Zn-, Cu- and Mn-glycinates in supplemented feed samples. The coupling of capillary electrophoresis (CE) with ICP MS detection after purification of the extract by ultrafiltration was shown to be efficient for the quantitative recovery of glycinates. The method developed was then applied to evaluate the bioaccessibility of…

A bioavailability study comparing two oral formulations containing zinc (Zn bis-glycinate vs. Zn gluconate) after a single administration to twelve healthy female volunteers.
As the current nutritional zinc intake frequently falls outside the Dietary Reference Intake (DRI) and as zinc is an essential trace mineral involved in the function of many enzymes, zinc supplementation has been recommended to prevent or treat the adverse effects of zinc deficiency. The aim of the present study was to compare the oral…
