The membrane is critically important in osomometry. Selection of a membrane involves reconciliation of high permeability toward the solvent with virtual impermeability to the smallest polymer molecules present in the sample. Membranes of cellulose are most widely used. Commercially Regenerated cellulose film is a common source. The undried gel cellophane film is often preferred, but the dry film may be swollen in water (or in aqueous solutions of caustic or zinc chloride ) to satisfactory porosity. Useful cellulose membranes may also be prepared by denitration of nitrocellulose films/ and special advantages have been claimed for bacterial cellulose films. The water in the swollen membrane in any case may be replaced by a succession of miscible organic solvents ending with the one in which osmotic measurements are to be made. Membranes of varying porosity may be... 

Pure PETN is too sensitive to friction and impact for direct application for military purposes. It can usefully be mixed with plasticised nitrocellulose, or with synthetic rubbers to obtain plastic or mouldable explosives. The commonest application, however, is in conjunction with TNT in the form of pentolites. Pentolites are usually obtained by incorporating PETN into molten TNT. A small amount of the PETN goes into solution, but the bulk remains suspended in the liquid and the whole mix can suitably be used in preparing cast charges. Pentolites containing 20-50% PETN are the commonest in practice.

The substance does not form saturated solutions in a single solvent, hence it has no limits of solubility in the usual sense of this term as applied to crystalline bodies. A solution resembling in its properties a saturated one can be prepared by means of a binary solvent, where a liquid immiscible with nitrocellulose is one of the two components (e.g. acetone and water). 

With solutions that have been prepared from solvents at a limiting ratio, i.e. where a small change in the proportion of the solvents may cause the dissolved nitrocellulose to coagulate, the highest viscosities are observed. The question is discussed below. 

T. Urbanski and Janiszewski [56] have confirmed the results of their predecessors, using nitrogen pentoxide plus a small amount of nitric acid, intended for preparing a liquid nitrating solution. Within 40 min at 20°C or after 35 min at 45°C, a product containing 14.0% N was reached. This kind of nitrocellulose is characterized by its high stability. 

Colloidal silver is a more economical stain than colloidal gold. The staining procedure is rapid, although the ferrous sulfate solution must be prepared immediately before use. Transferred proteins (>5 ng/band) appear as black bands on a light brown background for nitrocellulose and on a dark background for PVDF. 

Prepare primary antibody solution in TTBS (nitrocellulose or PVDF) or TBS (nylon). 

For many years guanidine thiocyanate was the most easily prepared and the most commonly used of the salts of guanidine. Other salts were made from it by metathetical reactions. Nitro-guanidine, prepared from the thiocyanate by direct nitration with mixed acids, was found to contain traces of sulfur compounds which attacked nitrocellulose and affected the stability of smokeless powder, and this is one of the reasons why nitroguanidine powders did not come into early use. Guanidine thiocyanate is deliquescent. Strong solutions of it dissolve filter paper. 

The reaction mixture included phosphate buffer, alcohol dehydrogenase, NAD+, substrates and internal standards, and mercaptoethanol in a final volume of 190 gtL. The enzyme preparation is preincubated with all components of the assay system except substrates, which are added to initiate the reaction. The reaction is terminated by adding 100 giL of the incubation mixture of 300 fiL of reaction-terminating solution containing acetate-perchlorate buffer and ascorbic acid. Samples could be stored up to 2 weeks at -80°C before thawing and filtering through 0.45 gm nitrocellulose filters. Flve-microliter aliquots were injected into the HPLC...
