The purpose of this study was to determine whether the addition of small quantities of minor lecithin components (phosphatidylinositol, phosphatidic acid, lysophosphatidylethanolamine, and cholesterol) and Pluronic F68 to lecithin could improve the stability of lecithin-stabilized perfluorocarbon emulsions. Attempts were made to correlate emulsion stability with interfacial properties (tension and charge). Dynamic interfacial tension was determined using a Teflon Wilhelmy plate method [reported previously (1)]. Emulsions were prepared by microfluidization. Microelectrophoresis was used to measure emulsion droplet charge, and photon correlation spectroscopy and Coulter analysis were used to determine emulsion stability as a function of droplet size. Thermal kinetic accelerated stability testing was conducted. Various droplet size parameters were used to compare emulsion stabilities, and an overall stability ranking, based on these parameters, was obtained for each emulsion. Small quantities of additives altered emulsion stability and these data were correlated with interfacial properties and initial droplet diameters. The addition of cholesterol to lecithin resulted in the most stable perfluorocarbon emulsion.  相似文献

The creation of a finely dispersed lipid emulsion is essential for efficient hydrolysis of dietary triglycerides. The effectiveness of emulsification within the stomach depends upon the shear force generated by gastric motility and the concentration of emulsifiers present in the gastric contents. Other dietary constituents can modify these factors, and previous studies have suggested that the presence of soluble non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) during digestion might increase the average size of intraluminal emulsion droplets. In the present study, we developed a new technique for the isolation and analysis of intraluminal lipid emulsions by optical diffraction analysis. The method was applied to rats fed powdered semipurified diets that were free of all NSP or supplemented with insoluble cellulose, guar gum, or NSP derived from apple, carrot or rolled oats. Cellulose had no significant effect on emulsion size, and there was no evidence that the average sizes of lipid droplets in the gastric fundus or antrum were higher than control values in rats fed diets supplemented with any source of soluble NSP. In the groups fed oats and cooked carrot NSP, the mean droplet diameters approached half the values for diets free of NSP or containing insoluble cellulose. The difference between rats fed NSP from cooked carrot and those fed cellulose was significant in the proximal stomach (P < 0.05), and that between rats fed raw oats and rats fed cellulose was significant in the distal stomach (P < 0.05). Soluble dietary fiber does not inhibit lipid or cholesterol absorption via any inhibition of lipid emulsification.  相似文献

Recent research has proposed the use of asphalt and tall-oil-pitch emulsions for stabilizing radioactive contamination deposited on surfaces in urban areas. The objective of this project was to investigate whether surface applied emulsions could capture airborne radioactive particulate. Laboratory experiments included wind-blown particulate capture studies using an acrylic column and particulate retainment experiments using a wind box capable of producing wind speeds of 96?km/h. A probe methodology was developed to relate particulate retainment to a tack force on the emulsion surface. Experiments were also performed to determine the potential for such emulsions to absorb particulate matter into their emulsion matrix. Tall-oil-pitch emulsions outperformed asphalt emulsions in terms of particulate retention, tack force, and the ability to absorb magnesium silicate. Both tall-oil-pitch and asphalt emulsions were capable of extracting 22–24?g?m?2 of powder from particulate-laden airflow. Tall-oil-pitch emulsions were capable of retaining as much as 5–10% of magnesium silicate powder applied (i.e., retainment densities of 10–20?g?m?2) even after seven?days of curing and after applying 96.5?km/h (60?mph) wind. Tall-oil-pitch emulsions were able to absorb surface-applied magnesium silicate (approximately 0.1–0.2?g of magnesium silicate per 1.0?g of emulsion within three?days) into their emulsion matrix, preventing the magnesium silicate from being exposed to the external environment. Initial results with these five different emulsion formulations suggested particulate capture was feasible. Future emulsion formulations (i.e., longer curing times with greater acid concentrations) should be tested to optimize this postdetonation response strategy.  相似文献

The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of mixtures of the emulsifiers Span 80, 83 and 85 and Tween 80 on multiple emulsion stability. An oscillatory ring-surface rheometer was used to measure interfacial elasticity at the oil-aqueous interface. Multiple emulsions were prepared via a two-step emulsification process and stability was evaluated by investigation of drug transport from freshly prepared and eight-day-old emulsions by use of a dialysis method. Photomicrography and droplet-size analysis of multiple emulsions were also conducted. Spans 80 and 83 were appreciably elastic (683.10+/-29.13 mNm(-1) and 1128.09+/-14.81 mNm(-1), respectively at 5% w/v) when present at the mineral oil-aqueous interface whereas Span 85 and Tween 80 were not (11.10+/-3.88 mNm(-1) (5% w/v) and 0 (0.1-5% w/v) respectively). The interfacial elasticities of Spans 80 and 83 decreased in the presence of Tween 80 in the aqueous phase; this was attributed to co-adsorption of Tween 80 at the interface or aqueous-phase solubilization of the Spans within mixed micelles, or both. Drug-transport studies indicated that drug release on storage was lower from water-in-oil-in-water (w/o/w) emulsions prepared with 5% w/v Span 80 or 83 and 0.1% w/v Tween 80 than from emulsions prepared with 5% w/v Spans 80 or 83 and 1% w/v Tween 80. Photomicrography and droplet-size analysis indicated the same trend-emulsions containing a higher percentage of Tween 80 were less stable. The relatively stable w/o/w emulsions (e.g. 5% w/v Spans 80 or 83 and 0.1% w/v Tween 80) contained a large number of multiple droplets for up to eight weeks of storage whereas the relatively unstable w/o/w emulsions (e.g., 5% w/v Span 85 and 0.1% w/v Tween 80 and 5% w/v Spans and 1% w/v Tween 80) contained mostly simple droplets after only one week of storage. The mean volume/weight droplet size decreased on storage with breakdown of these w/o/w emulsions to simple oil-in-water emulsions. There was a positive correlation between the interfacial elasticity and emulsion stability data. Mixed emulsifiers giving higher film strength, as quantified by interfacial elasticity measurements, resulted in more stable w/o/w emulsions.  相似文献

Five commonly used developers (Acufine, Rodinal, Dektol, D19 and Microdol X) and two popular nuclear gel emulsions (Kodak NTB-2 and Ilford L4) were tested in combinations for adequacy of development characteristics and the distribution of silver particle (grain) size measured by means of a reflectance microphotometer. All developer-emulsion combinations had some range of development time during which maximum development was accomplished with no occurrence of background grains, with the exceptions of the combinations of NTB2-Acufine and NTB2-D19. Ilford L4 emulsion obtained the narrowest grain size distribution with Rodinal and Acufine, followed by Dektol, and D19. The narrowest size distribution for Kodak NTB2 emulsion was achieved with D19 followed by Acufine, Dektol and Rodinal. Microdol-X had undesirable effects on the integrity of the individual grains of both emulsions. The criteria are discussed for selecting the most advantageous emulsion-developer system for the particular mode of evaluation (visual, photometric, television camera) to be applied to the finished autoradiographic specimens.  相似文献

Novel emulsions containing iodinated fluorinated radiopaque (IFR) molecules were prepared and evaluated as injectable contrast agents with prolonged intravascular persistence. Various stable IFR/egg yolk phospholipid emulsions were produced, heat-sterilized, and tested as to their radiopacity, shelf-stability and in vivo tolerance. No significant change in mean particle sizes was observed over a 3-month storage period at 40 degrees C. Intravenous injection of an emulsion of a 0.39 g/kg bw dose of a typical IFR, C6F13CH = CIC6H13 (F6H6IE) in rabbits led to high contrast in the liver and spleen. The same radiopacity of the liver was achieved with 7 times less IFR than perfluorooctyl bromide. Histological examination after 24 h, and blood analysis after 24, 48 h and 7 days, demonstrated normal functioning of the liver, even when high concentrations of IFR were present. The neat IFR was tolerated i.p. in mice at a 45 g/kg bw dose. Emulsified IFR was tolerated in rats and mice i.v. at a 8 g/kg bw dose. The iodinated fluorinated molecule tested appears promising for the formulation of new contrast agents for diagnosis.  相似文献

In a previous study by the authors (Rout et al. in Metall Mater Trans B 49:537–557, 2018), a dynamic model for the BOF, employing the concept of multizone kinetics was developed. In the current study, the kinetics of decarburization reaction is investigated. The jet impact and slag–metal emulsion zones were identified to be primary zones for carbon oxidation. The dynamic parameters in the rate equation of decarburization such as residence time of metal drops in the emulsion, interfacial area evolution, initial size, and the effects of surface-active oxides have been included in the kinetic rate equation of the metal droplet. A modified mass-transfer coefficient based on the ideal Langmuir adsorption equilibrium has been proposed to take into account the surface blockage effects of SiO2 and P2O5 in slag on the decarburization kinetics of a metal droplet in the emulsion. Further, a size distribution function has been included in the rate equation to evaluate the effect of droplet size on reaction kinetics. The mathematical simulation indicates that decarburization of the droplet in the emulsion is a strong function of the initial size and residence time. A modified droplet generation rate proposed previously by the authors has been used to estimate the total decarburization rate by slag–metal emulsion. The model’s prediction shows that about 76 pct of total carbon is removed by reactions in the emulsion, and the remaining is removed by reactions at the jet impact zone. The predicted bath carbon by the model has been found to be in good agreement with the industrially measured data.  相似文献

The intensity of radioautographic reactions in Ilford L4, Sakura NR-H2 and Kodak NTE emulsions was compared after exposure in either dry air or dry helium gas at 4 degrees C to test the stability of latent images in the presence or absence of oxygen. A light proof container is described in which slides bearing radioactive sections coated with the three emulsions were exposed in dry helium at a constant pressure of approximately 0.5 atm. The comparison of air and helium atmospheres during exposure of radioautographs was estimated qualitatively for 125I-labeled thyroid sections stored for several years and, in addition, quantitative data was derived from 3H-labeled methacrylate sections stored from 21 days to 1 year. With the three emulsions under study, the background fog remains low under both exposure conditions at 4 degrees C for as long as several years duration. Using L4 emulsion, similar high grain densities are obtained in air and helium, and therefore, the latent images in L4 emulsion remain stable in the presence of oxygen. In the case of NTE and NR-H2 emulsions, as the exposure time increases, substantially lower reaction intensities are observed in air than in helium. This difference in reaction intensity is evident by 3 weeks with NTE and after 4 weeks with NR-H2. Hence, there is fading of the latent images in the latter emulsions in the presence of oxygen. It is concluded that reliable results may be obtained with the L4 emulsion by exposure of radioautographs in dry air, whereas with the NR-H2 and NTE emulsions, exposure should be in an oxygen-free medium, such as is provided by a dry helium atmosphere.  相似文献

A prospective study was performed to investigate the effect of short-term lipid infusion on bile composition and its lithogenicity in humans. The study group comprised 44 patients scheduled for laparotomy. The patients were hospitalized 48 h prior to elective surgery and randomized to be infused with a lipid emulsion of either long chain triglycerides (LCT) or a mixture of medium and long chain triglycerides (MCT/LCT) for 6 h of each 24 h, or with glucose-saline. Bile samples were obtained by puncture of the gallbladder during operation. In non-gallstone patients, both lipids caused an elevation of biliary cholesterol and phospholipids, but this effect was more pronounced and significant (P <0.001) only with the mixture of MCT/LCT emulsion. The fatty acid composition of biliary phospholipids was not affected by either lipid infusion. The Cholesterol Saturation Index increased significantly (P <0.005) with the MCT/LCT emulsion and there was insignificant shortening in the nucleation time. In contrast to patients with cholelithiasis, no effects could be demonstrated on gallbladder bile composition, cholesterol saturation index, nucleation time, or fatty acid composition of phospholipids. The effects of both lipid emulsions on plasma lipids and lipoproteins were similar in all groups. Our results indicate that lipid emulsions containing MCT/LCT induce lithogenic changes in the composition of human bile. We propose that the lack of effect of lipid infusion on bile composition in patients with cholelithiasis may be due to precipitation of excess cholesterol in the gallbladder of cholesterol gallstone patients whose bile is already saturated. These findings imply that patients with cholesterol gallstones cannot be grouped with non-gallstone patients in studies of alterations of bile composition.  相似文献

Linear spray atomization and deposition is an attractive technique to produce near-net-shape deposits, such as aluminum sheet and strip. In the present study, phase Doppler interferometry (PDI) was used in a backscatter mode to characterize, in situ, the droplet size and velocity distributions during linear spray atomization and deposition of a 3003 aluminum alloy. The PDI measurements were obtained along axes corresponding to the direction parallel to the nozzle slit and to the direction perpendicular to the slit. The PDI results delineate the temporal and spatial distribution of the droplet size and velocity during the metal spray. Both point and “line” measurements were obtained and are reported. The line measurements resulted from the integration of measurement made along a line scan obtained in real time (i.e., not ensemble averaged). Postrun analysis of the droplet size distribution using laser diffraction and sieving techniques is also reported. The PDI point measurements revealed that droplet size and velocity distribution were relatively invariant with time. The line measurements of droplet velocity showed that the droplet axial velocity exhibits a bimodal behavior, which becomes more apparent with increasing atomizing gas pressure, a result of droplet recirculation inside the spray chamber. In addition, the peak in the droplet axial velocity distribution increased as atomizing gas pressure increased. The line characterization also showed that the droplet size distribution became more homogeneous with increasing gas pressure, and that the distribution characteristic diameters of droplets decreased consistently with increasing gas pressure. Postrun characterization of the droplet size distribution of the entire metal spray using diffraction and sieving methods indicated that the mass (volume) median diameter D 50 and the Sauter mean diameter (SMD) D 32 decreased with increasing gas pressure in a manner consistent with PDI results.  相似文献

The radiographic density fluctuations produced by using dual screen-film systems are designated as the radiographic mottle. The density fluctuation of the radiographic mottle for the double emulsions at a density of the double emulsions consists of those for the front and back emulsions on a radiograph. However, the relation between the Wiener spectra of the radiographic mottle for the double and single emulsions had not been studied. Hence we compared the Wiener spectra of the radiographic mottle for the double emulsions with the sum of those for the front and back emulsions on the same radiographs and with the sum of those for the emulsions at the same densities. At all densities of more than 0.62 for lower spatial frequencies (< or = 1 mm-1), the Wiener spectral values of the radiographic mottle for the double emulsions were greater than the sum of those for the front and back emulsions for both comparisons on the same radiographs and at the same densities. In order to investigate the reason of the above phenomena, we separated the Wiener spectral values of the radiographic mottle for various densities into those of the three factors, i.e., quantum mottle, structure mottle, and film granularity, and performed the same comparisons as the radiographic mottle. Also, to explain the results for the three factors, we obtained the Wiener spectral values of the spatial fluctuations of the light exposure or the fluorescence intensity and the gradients of the characteristic curves of the film for the double and single emulsions of the x-ray film. As a result of the investigation, we found that the phenomena on the radiographic mottle were caused by that (1) on the same radiographs the squares of the gradients of the characteristic curves for the double emulsions were about 5.3 times as great as those for the single emulsion at densities of more than 0.62 of the double emulsions, and (2) at the same density of more than 0.62 those were more than about 2.2 times as great as those for the single emulsion.  相似文献

The central function of lipoprotein lipase (LpL) is to hydrolyze triacylglycerols in chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins. We have examined the binding of purified milk lipoprotein lipase to homogeneous synthetic lipid emulsions. Emulsions composed of either naturally occurring ester-linked lipids or the non-hydrolyzable ether analogues were prepared by sonication and pressure extrusion, and fractionated by sucrose density gradient centrifugation. Flotation analysis using the analytical ultracentrifuge indicated that the individual fractions were relatively homogeneous with respect to size with flotation coefficients and molecular weights for the separated fractions ranging from 100 to 1100 S and 5.2 x 10(7) to 6.0 x 10(8), respectively. Purified milk lipoprotein lipase bound with high affinity and in a saturable manner to emulsions prepared from the non-hydrolyzable ether-linked lipid analogues of 1-oleoyl, 2-palmitoyl phosphatidylcholine and triolein. At low concentrations of LpL, the enzyme caused aggregation of the emulsion particles by interparticle cross-linking. At higher LpL concentrations, the flotation coefficient of the emulsions decreased significantly with a concomitant increase in particle density. At saturation, the number of LpL monomers bound to lipid particles of radii 67, 75, and 79 nm was 1315, 1449, and 1466, respectively. The results demonstrate close packing of LpL on the lipid surface and are consistent with there being little disruption to the overall structure of the emulsion particle.  相似文献

Four types of lipid emulsion for highly lipophilic antitumour agent RS-1541 (13-O-palmitoylrhizoxin) with mean particle diameters of 200-260 nm were prepared using soybean oil (SOY) or dioctanoyldecanoylglycerol (ODO) for the oil phase and lecithin (LEC) or polyoxyethylene-(60)-hydrogenated castor oil (HCO-60) for surfactants. The lipolysis rate of HCO-60-emulsified emulsions by lipoprotein lipase was much slower than that of LEC-emulsified emulsions. Particle sizes of emulsions incubated in plasma with the lipase for six hours were 75%, 79%, 101%, and 93% of initial values for SOY/LEC, ODO/LEC, SOY/HCO-60, and ODO/HCO-60 emulsions, respectively, showing an apparent size decrease for LEC-emulsified emulsions. In rats, uptake clearance values of SOY/LEC and ODO/LEC emulsions of RS-1541 in the reticuloendothelial system (RES) were 81.2 and 135.3 mL h(-1), respectively, and AUC values were 4.0 and 1.3 microg h mL(-1), respectively. In contrast, RES uptake clearances of HCO-60 emulsions of RS-1541 were considerably lower (4.2 mL h(-1) for SOY/HCO-60; 2.2 mL h(-1) for ODO/HCO-60), resulting in high AUC values (35.4 microg h mL(-1) for SOY/ HCO-60; 63.9 microg h mL(-1) for ODO/HCO-60). The concentrations of RS-1541 in tumour tissues after an intravenous administration of ODO/HCO-60 emulsions of RS-1541 to mice bearing solid tumour M5076 sarcoma were about ten times higher than those after the administration of SOY/LEC emulsions. These results indicate that HCO-60 emulsions, compared with conventional LEC emulsions, are more stable to lipoprotein lipase and show low uptakes by RES organs, long circulations in the plasma, and high distributions in tumours. Thus, these sterically stabilized emulsions could show potential as effective carriers for highly lipophilic antitumour agents to enhance the drug delivery in tumours.  相似文献

Highly lipophilic antitumor agent, palmitoyl rhizoxin (RS-1541), was incorporated into stable lipid emulsions about 100-1000nm in mean diameter consisting of triglyceride ODO and surfactant HCO-60. The pharmacokinetics of RS-1541 were studied after i.v. injection in mice, rats, rabbits, and dogs. Dog showed characteristic pharmacokinetics of RS-1541, compared with other species. RS-1541 was much more rapidly eliminated from plasma with emulsion particles in dogs than in mice, rats, and rabbits. Most amounts of injected RS-1541 were recovered in the liver six hours after administration to dogs, while less than 20% recoveries were observed for mice and rats. To clarify this species variation, opsonization of emulsion particles were evaluated. When emulsions (about 200nm in size) were opsonized by dog plasma, and intravenously injected to rats, total clearance and liver uptake of RS-1541 were increased to 1.8 fold and 2.7 fold of control values, respectively. In contrasts, emulsions opsonized by mouse, rabbit and human plasma did not show such drastic changes in pharmacokinetics of RS-1541 in rats. Furthermore, total clearance of RS-1541 for emulsions opsonized by dog plasma was increased to 1.9 fold of controls after injection to rabbits. These results indicate that opsonizing activities of dog plasma for RS-1541 emulsions are high, compared with other species. This species variation in opsonizing process probably caused the species variation in the pharmacokinetics of RS-1541 incorporated in lipid emulsions.  相似文献

Excess surfactant present in emulsions can influence the rates of transport of incorporated drugs by micellar solubilization, alteration of the partitioning process and by drug-surfactant complexation. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), a cationic surfactant was selected to investigate these phenomena as it forms relatively stable mineral oil-water (O-W) emulsions and has the potential for ionic interaction. Phenylazoaniline, benzocaine, benzoic acid and phenol were chosen as model drugs for this study. The emulsion critical micelle concentration (CMC) for CTAB determined using a combination of a membrane equilibrium technique and surface-tension measurement was 1.0% w/v in 10% v/v% O-W emulsion systems. Ionic interaction between model drugs and surfactants and drug hydrophobicity affected their transport rates in the emulsion systems. The transport rates of the lipophilic drugs (benzocaine and phenylazoaniline) and the ionized hydrophillic drug (benzoic acid, pH 7.0) in the emulsion systems increased with increasing CTAB concentration up to 0.5% w/v micellar concentration and then decreased at higher concentrations. The rate of transport of phenol was not affected by the presence of micellar phase. Ionic interaction between surfactant and model drugs affected transport rates of model drugs in emulsion systems. The micellar phase was considered to affect the overall transport rates of model drugs.  相似文献

The thermotropic properties of triolein-rich, low-cholesterol dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) emulsion particles with well-defined chemical compositions (approximately 88% triolein, 1% cholesterol, 11% diacyl phosphatidylcholine) and particle size distributions (mean diameter, approximately 1000-1100 A) were studied in the absence and presence of apolipoprotein-A1 by a combination of differential scanning and titration calorimetry. The results are compared to egg yolk PC emulsions of similar composition and size. Isothermal titration calorimetry at 30 degrees C was used to saturate the emulsion surface with apo-A1 and rapidly quantitate the binding constants (affinity Ka = 11.1 +/- 3.5 x 10(6) M-1 and capacity N = 1.0 +/- 0.09 apo-A1 per 1000 DPPC) and heats of binding (enthalpy H = -940 +/- 35 kcal mol-1 apo-A1 or -0.92 +/- 0.12 kcal mol-1 DPPC). The entropy of association is -3070 cal deg-1 mol-1 protein or -3 cal deg-1 mol-1 DPPC. Without protein on the surface, the differential scanning calorimetry heating curve of the emulsion showed three endothermic transitions at 24.3 degrees C, 33.0 degrees C, and 40.0 degrees C with a combined enthalpy of 1.53 +/- 0.2 kcal mol-1 DPPC. With apo-A1 on the surface, the heating curve showed the three transitions more clearly, in particular, the second transition became more prominent by significant increases in both the calorimetric and Van't Hoff enthalpies. The combined enthalpy was 2.70 +/- 0.12 kcal mol-1 DPPC and remained constant upon repeated heating and cooling. Indicating that the newly formed DPPC emulsion-Apo-A1 complex is thermally reversible during calorimetry. Thus there is an increase in delta H of 1.17 kcal mol-1 DPPC after apo-A1 is bound, which is roughly balanced by the heat released during binding (-0.92 kcal) of apo-A1. The melting entropy increase, +3.8 cal deg-1 mol-1 DPPC of the three transitions after apo-A1 binds, also roughly balances the entropy (-3 cal deg-1 mol-1 DPPC) of association of apo-A1. These changes indicate that apo-A1 increases the amount of ordered gel-like phase on the surface of DPPC emulsions when added at 30 degrees C. From the stoichiometry of the emulsions we calculate that the mean area of DPPC at the triolein/DPPC interface is 54.5 A2 at 41 degrees C and 54.2 A2 at 30 degrees C. The binding of apo-A1 at 30 degrees C to the emulsion reduces the surface area per DPPC molecule from 54.2 A2 to 50.8 A2. At 30 degrees apo-A1 binds with high affinity and low capacity to the surface of DPPC emulsions and increases the packing density of the lipid domain to which it binds. Apo-A1 was also titrated onto DPPC emulsions at 45 degrees C. This temperature is above the gel liquid crystal transition. No heat was released or adsorbed. Furthermore, egg yolk phosphatidylcholine emulsions of nearly identical composition were also titrated at 30 degrees C with apo-A1 and were euthermic. Association constants were previously measured using a classical centrifugation assay and were used to calculate the entropy of apo-A1 binding (+28 cal deg-1 mol-1 apo-A1). This value indicates that apo-A1 binding to a fluid surface like egg yolk phosphatidylcholine or probably DPPC at 45 degrees C is hydrophobic and is consistent with hydrocarbon lipid or protein moities coming together and excluding water. Thus the binding of apo-A1 to partly crystalline surfaces is entropically negative and increases the order of the already partly ordered phases, whereas binding to liquid surfaces is mainly an entropically driven hydrophobic process.  相似文献

Paraffin wax and aqueous paraffin emulsions can be used as controlled release carriers for insect sex pheromones for mating disruption of orchard pests. Paraffin can be applied at ambient temperature as an aqueous emulsion, adheres to tree bark or foliage, releases pheromone for an extended period of time, and will slowly erode from bark and biodegrade in soil. Pheromone emulsions can be applied with simple spray equipment. Pheromone release-rates from paraffin were measured in laboratory flow-cell experiments. Pheromone was trapped from an air stream with an adsorbent, eluted periodically, and quantified by gas chromatography. Pheromone release from paraffin was partition-controlled, providing a constant (zero-order) release rate. A typical paraffin emulsion consisted of 30% paraffin, 4% pheromone, 4% soy oil, 1% vitamin E, 2% emulsifier, and the balance water. Soy oil and vitamin E acted as volatility suppressants. A constant release of oriental fruit moth pheromone from paraffin emulsions was observed in the laboratory for more than 100 days at 27 degreesC, with release-rates ranging from 0.4 to 2 mg/day, depending on the concentration and surface area of the dried emulsion. The use of paraffin emulsions is a viable method for direct application of insect pheromones for mating disruption. Sprayable formulations can be designed to release insect pheromones to the environment at a rate necessary for insect control by mating disruption. At temperatures below 38 degreesC, zero-order release was observed. At 38 degreesC and higher, pheromone oxidation occurred. A partition-controlled release mechanism was supported by a zero-order pheromone release-rate, low air/wax partition coefficients, and pheromone solubility in paraffin.  相似文献

Our objective was to characterize the time course of mesenteric lymph output, lipid composition and size of lymph chylomicrons in rats given gastric infusion of lipid emulsions containing defined fractions of butterfat, palm oil or corn oil. The concentrations of cholesterol, triacylglycerol (TAG) and phospholipid in lymph obtained before lipid infusion were 1.4-2.5-fold greater in rats chronically fed palm oil or solid butterfat compared with corn oil or liquid butterfat (P = 0.02). Total lymph chylomicron TAG output (mg/24 h) stimulated by gastric lipid infusion was 21% greater with corn oil compared with all saturated fats (P = 0.02). Total lymph chylomicron cholesterol output was 1.3-8.6-fold greater than the amount infused in all groups (P = 0.03) and was independent of the amount of cholesterol infused. The size distribution as well as the mean, median and modal diameters of lymph chylomicrons isolated during peak lymphatic TAG output were not significantly different among treatments. The fatty acid and TAG profiles of lymph chylomicrons obtained from rats infused with corn or palm oil did not differ significantly from that of the emulsion infused. In contrast, gastric lipolysis of butterfat significantly modified the lipid composition of lymph chylomicrons. We observed progressive disappearance of short- and medium-chain fatty acids in gastric contents and an absence of detectable short-chain fatty acids with concurrent proportionate increases in long-chain fatty acids and large TAG molecules in lymph chylomicrons compared with butterfat emulsions. These studies demonstrate that gastric digestion is an important modifier of lipid absorption.  相似文献
