Figure 2 Optical rotation versus temperature curves for l-carrageenan samples (0.2% w/w in 0.8 M NaCl), containing different amounts of v-carrageenan,from top to bottom 0%, 1.3%, 2.6%, 4.6%, 9.6%, 12.3%, and 22.8% bottom...

Flow patterns were visualized by adding tracer particles to the fluid, following the method reported by Espinosa-Solares et al. [11]. x-Carrageenan particle tracers were introduced into the system through the recirculation tube at the top. A digital video camera was used to follow the particle trajectory through the bioreactor. The particle trajectory was drawn using bioreactor-scale sketches. 

Diclofenac is synthesized from N-phenyl-2,6-dichloroaniline (52). It is available in 120 different countries and, perhaps, is the most widely used NSAID in the world. It was introduced in the United States in 1989 but was first marketed in Japan in 1974. It ranks among the top prescription drugs in the United States. Diclofenac possesses structural characteristics of both arylalkanoic acid and the anthranilic acid classes of anti-inflammatory drugs, and it displays anti-inflammatory, analgetic, and antipyretic properties. In the carrageenan-induced rat paw edema assay, it is twice as potent as indomethacin and 450 times as potent as aspirin. As an analgetic, it is six times more potent than indomethacin and 40 times as potent as aspirin in the phenyl benzoquinone-induced writhing assay in mice. As an antipyretic, it is twice as potent as indomethacin and more than 350 times as potent as aspirin in the yeast-... 

Fig. 10. Variation of tan 5 with temperature on cooling at varying oscillation frequency (as shown in top frame) for i-carrageenan in 0.25 M NaCl alone and in complexes with CHI-20 or CHI-75 of varying Z (as indicated in headings). Rheological critical gel point (Tgei) values are indicated in each frame.
