TL;DR: The results have shown that the arousal effect of levodopa seen in hepatic coma cannot be attributed to defective brain dopamine synthesis, but whether it is due to the flushing away of false neurotransmitters accumulating in the brain in liver failure requires further study.
Abstract: therefore result from defective transport of HVA owing to the raised free tryptophan levels rather than to abnormal brain dopamine metabolism. Investigations on brain tissue are required to decide this question. We had hoped that this study would elucidate the arousal effect of levodopa seen in hepatic coma. The results have shown that this cannot be attributed to defective brain dopamine synthesis, but whether it is due to the flushing away of false neurotransmitters accumulating in the brain in liver failure requires further study (Fischer and Baldessarini, 1971). Conceivably the raised plasma free tryptophan levels are important in the mechanism of the cerebral impairment in hepatic encephalopathy in view of the reported toxic effects of tryptophan in the presence of defective liver function.

TL;DR: The close agreement between the two surface area values indicates that either gravimetric/FTIR method may be used to determine the surface area of aluminum hydroxide adjuvant, and is the basis for the intrinsically high protein adsorption capacity.

TL;DR: Among the aqueous solutions, the best results were obtained with dissolved soil organic matter solution and the model root exudates solution which were able to desorb up to 50% phenanthrene after 30 days aging.
Abstract: Inorganic (a montmorillonite; a complex of montmorillonite and aluminium hydroxide) and organo-mineral model soil colloids (a complex of montmorillonite, aluminium hydroxide and humic acid) were te...

TL;DR: In this paper, the discharge potential of a composite NCE with various additives was investigated. But the results showed that the effect of anion additives on active material utilization and swelling of the NCE was limited.

TL;DR: In this article, the formation of pseudoboehmite and bayerite from amorphous aluminium hydroxide was investigated using X-ray powder diffraction and electron microscopy.
Abstract: Changes in specific surface area, interpreted in conjunction withX-ray powder diffraction and electron microscopy, have been used to follow the formation of pseudoboehmite and bayerite from amorphous aluminium hydroxide. Precipitates, essentially free from foreign ions, were prepared by the hydrolysis of aluminium s-butoxide and ageing in water, aqueous ethanol and aqueous glycerol was studied. A comparison of rates of crystallization in these media provides evidence for the idea that pseudoboehmite is formed by an inter- and intra-particle condensation involving hydroxyl groups while bayerite is formed by a dissolution and recrystallization process. Possible rate determining factors in these mechanisms are considered and the role of particle aggregation-cementation, the degree of which depends on the nature of the solvent, is discussed.
