The MAOI antidepressant drag s are contraindicated in patients widi known hypersensitivity to die drug s, liver and kidney disease, cerebrovascular disease, hypertension, or congestive heart failure and in die elderly. These drag s are given cautiously to patients witii impaired liver function, history of seizures, parkinsonian symptoms, diabetes, or hyperthyroidism.

The objective function history showed 16 iterations for finding the optimum design point. A complete iteration refers to solution of the direction finding QP and step size associated with SQP. The optimization took a total of 163 analysis calls and approximately 20 min for the process to complete. The optimum mass was 101.49 kg for the 22 selected components in comparison to the baseline mass of 105.25 kg for a reduction of approximately 3.6 %.

A general prerequisite for the existence of a stable interface between two phases is that the free energy of formation of the interface be positive were it negative or zero, fluctuations would lead to complete dispersion of one phase in another. As implied, thermodynamics constitutes an important discipline within the general subject. It is one in which surface area joins the usual extensive quantities of mass and volume and in which surface tension and surface composition join the usual intensive quantities of pressure, temperature, and bulk composition. The thermodynamic functions of free energy, enthalpy and entropy can be defined for an interface as well as for a bulk portion of matter. Chapters II and ni are based on a rich history of thermodynamic studies of the liquid interface. The phase behavior of liquid films enters in Chapter IV, and the electrical potential and charge are added as thermodynamic variables in Chapter V. 

In an inelastic, time-independent (Stokesian) fluid the extra stre.ss is considered to be a function of the in.stantaneous rate of defomiation (rate of strain). Therefore in this case the fluid does not retain any memory of the history of the deformation which it has experienced at previous stages of the flow. 

Although the use of simple diluents and adulterants almost certainly predates recorded history, the use of fillers to modify the properties of a composition can be traced as far back as eady Roman times, when artisans used ground marble in lime plaster, frescoes, and po22olanic mortar. The use of fillers in paper and paper coatings made its appearance in the mid-nineteenth century. Functional fillers, which introduce new properties into a composition rather than modify pre-existing properties, were commercially developed eady in the twentieth century when Goodrich added carbon black to mbber and Baekeland formulated phenol— formaldehyde plastics with wood dour. 

Vehicle volatihty requirements are a strong function of ambient temperatures. ASTM has defined five volatihty classes based on expected minimum and maximum daily temperatures. These classes and their ranges are shown in Table 3. Each month, each state is assigned a volatihty class, depending on its temperature history. Table 3 also shows the ASTM volatihty specifications for each class. 

Results from measurements of time-dependent effects depend on the sample history and experimental conditions and should be considered approximate. For example, the state of an unsheared or undisturbed sample is a function of its previous shear history and the length of time since it underwent shear. The area of a thixotropic loop depends on the shear range covered, the rate of shear acceleration, and the length of time at the highest shear rate. However, measurements of time-dependent behavior can be usehil in evaluating and comparing a number of industrial products and in solving flow problems. 

Master curves can also be constmcted for crystalline polymers, but the shift factor is usually not the same as the one calculated from the WLF equation. An additional vertical shift factor is usually required. This factor is a function of temperature, partly because the modulus changes as the degree of crystaHiuity changes with temperature. Because crystaHiuity is dependent on aging and thermal history, vertical factors and crystalline polymer master curves tend to have poor reproducibiUty. 

Soap as used in personal cleansing products has a long safe history of use. Modem soaps have been specifically formulated to be compatible with skin and to be used on a daily basis with minimal side effects. Excessive use of soap for skin cleansing can dismpt the natural barrier function of skin through the removal of skin oils and dismption of the Hpid bdayer in skin. This can result in imperfect desquamation or a dry appearance to skin and cause an irritation response or erythema, ie, reddening of the skin. Neither of these is a permanent response and the eHcitation of this type of skin reaction depends on the individual s skin type, the product formulation, and the frequency of use. 

Pharmaceutical Applications. Sucrose has a long history in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals. It imparts body to symps and medicinal hquids and masks unpleasant tastes. Sucrose also functions as a diluent to control dmg concentrations in medicines, as an ingredient binder for tablets, and to impart chewiness to the latter. Sustained-release medications and protective tablet glazes are prepared using sucrose (41). Sucrose-based sugar pastes are used to promote wound healing (58). 

A crystalline or semicrystalline state in polymers can be induced by thermal changes from a melt or from a glass, by strain, by organic vapors, or by Hquid solvents (40). Polymer crystallization can also be induced by compressed (or supercritical) gases, such as CO2 (41). The plasticization of a polymer by CO2 can increase the polymer segmental motions so that crystallization is kinetically possible. Because the amount of gas (or fluid) sorbed into the polymer is a dkect function of the pressure, the rate and extent of crystallization may be controUed by controlling the supercritical fluid pressure. As a result of this abiHty to induce crystallization, a history effect may be introduced into polymers. This can be an important consideration for polymer processing and gas permeation membranes.
