Chelating agent, additive

Mineral oil and paraffins should not be used, because these are not metabolized and may irritate tissue. Various other additives are needed for stabiUty, stefihty, and isotonicity antimicrobial preservatives, antioxidants (qv), chelating agents (qv), and buffers. No parenteral container material is completely inert to parenteral solvent systems. 

Addition of secondary chelating agents, eg, polyols such as sorbitol or mannitol and the strongly chelating a-hydroxycarboxyhc acids such as citric or oxahc, prevents development of turbidity outside the pH range of 9—11 (115—117). 

Capillary Electrophoresis. Capillary electrophoresis (ce) is an analytical technique that can achieve rapid high resolution separation of water-soluble components present in small sample volumes. The separations are generally based on the principle of electrically driven ions in solution. Selectivity can be varied by the alteration of pH, ionic strength, electrolyte composition, or by incorporation of additives. Typical examples of additives include organic solvents, surfactants (qv), and complexation agents (see Chelating agents). 

Addition of pyrazole to C—X double bonds is also common. Formaldehyde gives stable adducts (260) and (261) (69BSF2064), but in the addition to ketones, (262) is only observed at low temperatures (Section 4.04.1.3.3(i)). However, hexafluoroacetone forms a stable adduct (262 R = Cp3) that has been used as a chelating agent (Section 4.04.2.1.3(iv)). Addition of pyrazoles to aryl isocyanates affords (263) the addition is also reversible, but it requires high temperatures to dissociate the adduct (Section 4.04.1.5.1). 

The trend in architectural applications has been towards more matt finishes, and the sodium hydroxide-based etchants used frequently contain additives such as sodium nitrate or nitrite or sodium fluoride. Chelating agents such as gluconates, heptonates or sorbitol are added to complex the aluminium produced, and other additives such as sulphides may be present in the etchant to complex zinc dissolved from the alloy, and allow it to be used continuously without dumping ... 

Addition of chelating agents to the fermentation medium may help to inhibit phage multiplication by prevention of phage adsorption to the cell wall. 

The monolithium salt of 4-hydroxy-4-(phenylethynyl)-2.5-cyclohexadienone (12), prepared in situ by the addition of lithium acetylide to /7-benzoquinone, was treated with methylmagnesium chloride in l HF-TMEDA or in THF —DMPU. The syn-, 4-addition adduct 13, derived from intramolecular delivery of the carbon nucleophile by the hydroxy oxygen, as well as the <7s-1,4-diol 14, obtained via intermolecular 1,2-addition, were obtained in varying amounts depending on the conditions. The selectivity on 1,4- to 1,2-addition increased by the addition of cation chelating agents such as DMPU, TMEDA, and 15-crown-5. Although the 1,4 to 1,2... 

In addition to phenolic substances, there are other components present in foods which have no antioxidant activity of their own, but which increase that of phenolic antioxidants. They are called synergists, and they should be accounted for in any discussion of antioxidant activity. Polyvalent organic acids, amino acids, phospholipids (lecithin) and various chelating agents belong to this group. Proteins may modify the efficiency of antioxidants as they react with the reaction products of both antioxidants and synergists. 

In general, such studies are carried out by placing the drug in a solution of the additive. These can be (and usually are) a heavy metal (with or without chelating agents present) or an antioxidant (in either oxygen or... 

Treatment additives, chelating agents, and clay minerals can be added to a system to bind to metals and reduce metal mobility. Treatment additives, such as carbonates, phosphates, and hydroxides, form insoluble precipitates with metals, thus decreasing their bioavailability. Jonioh et al.141... 

Higher phytoextraction coefficients indicate higher metal uptake. The effectiveness of phytoextraction can be limited by the sorption of metals to soil particles and the low solubility of the metals however, metals can be solubilized through the addition of acids or chelating agents and so allow uptake of the contaminant by the plant. Ethylene diamine tetra-acetic acid (EDTA), citric acid, and ammonium nitrate have been reported to help in the solubilization of lead, uranium, and cesium...
