  2. Colistin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colistin

    It comes in two forms: colistimethate sodium can be injected into a vein, injected into a muscle, or inhaled, and colistin sulfate is mainly applied to the skin or taken by mouth. [10] Colistimethate sodium [ 11 ] is a prodrug ; it is produced by the reaction of colistin with formaldehyde and sodium bisulfite, which leads to the addition of a ...

    It will then form insoluble cobalt silicate by a double displacement reaction. This cobalt silicate is a semipermeable membrane . Because the ionic strength of the cobalt solution inside the membrane is higher than the sodium silicate solution's, which forms the bulk of the tank contents, osmotic effects will increase the pressure within the ...

  4. Polymyxin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polymyxin

    Polymyxin antibiotics are relatively neurotoxic and nephrotoxic, so are usually used only as a last resort if modern antibiotics are ineffective or are contraindicated. . Typical uses are for infections caused by strains of multiple drug-resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa or carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteri

  5. Crossover experiment (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossover_experiment...

    Crossover experiments allow for experimental study of a reaction mechanism. Mechanistic studies are of interest to theoretical and experimental chemists for a variety of reasons including prediction of stereochemical outcomes, optimization of reaction conditions for rate and selectivity, and design of improved catalysts for better turnover number, robustness, etc. [6] [7] Since a mechanism ...

  6. Carbon snake - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_snake

    A column of porous black graphite formed during the experiment. Carbon snake experiment. The carbon snake is a demonstration of the dehydration reaction of sugar by concentrated sulfuric acid. With concentrated sulfuric acid, granulated table sugar performs a degradation reaction which changes its form to a black solid-liquid mixture. [1]

  7. Aromatic sulfonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatic_sulfonation

    Historically, mercurous sulfate has been used to catalyze the reaction. [3] Chlorosulfuric acid is also an effective agent: C 6 H 6 + HSO 3 Cl → C 6 H 5 SO 3 H + HCl. In contrast to aromatic nitration and most other electrophilic aromatic substitutions this reaction is reversible. Sulfonation takes place in concentrated acidic conditions and ...

  8. Blue bottle experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_bottle_experiment

    The aqueous solution in the classical reaction contains glucose, sodium hydroxide and methylene blue. [14] In the first step an acyloin of glucose is formed. The next step is a redox reaction of the acyloin with methylene blue in which the glucose is oxidized to diketone in alkaline solution [6] and methylene blue is reduced to colorless leucomethylene blue.

  9. Qualitative inorganic analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qualitative_inorganic_analysis

    Classical qualitative inorganic analysis is a method of analytical chemistry which seeks to find the elemental composition of inorganic compounds.It is mainly focused on detecting ions in an aqueous solution, therefore materials in other forms may need to be brought to this state before using standard methods.
