Erythromycin-antacid interaction.

Abstract: The in vitro release of erythromycin stearate in the presence of aluminium hydroxide, aluminium trisilicate, magnesium oxide, magnesium trisilicate, sodium hydrogen carbonate and a combination of aluminium hydroxide gel, magnesium hydroxide and dimethyl polysiloxane has been studied by the USP XX dissolution method. The dissolution of erythromycin was found to be markedly retarded in the presence of all the antacids studied except sodium hydrogen carbonate. An attempt was made to elucidate the mechanism of this effect.

Artificial stone panel and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract: The invention discloses a artificial stone plate prepared by adding cobalt naphthenate accelerator, methylethylketone, light stabilizer, paint and antioxidant into unsaturated polyester resin. The preparation method includes the following steps: firstly modifying the aluminium hydroxide and/or calcium carbonate to get surface modified aluminium hydroxide and/or calcium carbonate or pure aluminium hydroxide powder, then adding cobalt naphthenate accelerator, methylethylketone, light stabilizer, paint and antioxidant into unsaturated polyester resin, uniformly mixing and stirring the mixture in a high speed stirring reactor, adding surface modified aluminium hydroxide and/or calcium carbonate powder or pure aluminium hydroxide powder, stirring and casting the mixture into a mould after vacuum defoamtion, heating up to 60-80 DEG C and curing to get the artificial stone and marble panel.

High flux water purification using aluminium hydroxide hydrate gels.

Abstract: Filtration of aqueous liquids has wide implications, for example for provision of clean drinking water. Nevertheless, many people still lack access to safe water and suffer from preventable water-borne microbial diseases. This study reports a new ultrafiltration-range separation technology using a gelatinous layer of aluminium hydroxide polyhydrate as a secondary membrane on a retaining fabric that enables simple and cost-effective production of filtered water. Properties include at least 4-fold higher flux rates than currently available membranes, pressure-resistance, impenetrability to filtered particles, easy cleaning by backwashing and simple, cost-effective replacement by gel injection. Depending on the substrate, filtration is achieved through a packed bed of 1-2 nm hydrate gel globules, partly by mechanical straining with a size exclusion of approx. 10 nm and partly by physical adsorption. As a result, filtration of water (e.g. turbid river water) contaminated with colloids and microorganisms, including viruses, yields clear water that is free of measurable particles or detectable microorganisms. However, small water-soluble molecules (salts, sugars, proteins) remain in the filtrate. The findings demonstrate the potential for wide applicability of hydrate gels in high-flux and low-cost water purification devices.

Method for producing basic aluminum sulphate (III)

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing sulphate-poor, polynucleate aluminium hydroxide sulphate complexes of the general formula [Al(OH).sub.x (SO.sub.4).sub.y (H.sub.2 O).sub.z ].sub.n in which n is an integer; x is 0.75-2.0; y is 0.5-1.12; x+2y is 3; z is 1.5-4 when the product is in solid form, and z>>4 when the product is in the form of an aqueous solution, an amorphous aluminium hydroxide being admixed with aluminium sulphate and/or sulphuric acid to y=0.5-1.12; preferably 0.5-0.75.
