Absorption of CO2 in aqueous blend of methyldiethanolamine and arginine by Talkhan, Ahmed Gomaa

“…However, for CO2 partial pressure of above 20 kPa, the addition of Arg caused a decrease in the solubility of CO2. The obtained loading data were correlated using a semiempirical (SE) vapour liquid equilibrium (VLE) model with an average absolute deviation (AAD) less than 4.1% between the predicted and the experimental values. …”

Effect of rat serum lipoproteins on mRNA levels and amiodarone metabolism by cultured primary rat hepatocytes by Brocks, D. R.

“…The effect of hyperlipidemic rat serum, either before or with AM, was profound, causing a significant reduction in the CLint. Reductions were seen in mRNA for cytochrome P450 1A1, 3A2, and 2D1, some transporters, and low-density lipoprotein receptors after exposure of hepatocytes to lipoprotein-rich sera. …”
