The effect of a sodium citrate preparation compared with an aluminium-magnesium hydroxide preparation on the urinary pH of normal subjects.

The effects of a sodium citrate preparation in two dosage regimens (4 g 4 times daily and 8 g 4 times daily) and of an aluminium-magnesium hydroxide suspension (15 ml 4 times daily) on the urinary pH of 19 healthy subjects were compared. The sodium citrate preparation in both dosages proved to be superior to the aluminium-magnesium hydroxide suspension in elevating the urinary pH. Urinary pH values as high as 8 were reached with the sodium citrate preparation. Blood pH, blood gases and electrolyte changes were within normal limits.

[Magnesium hydroxide treatment of hyperphosphatemia in chronic hemodialysis patients with an aluminum overload].

The control of hyperphosphatemia in dialysis patients is frequently achieved using aluminium hydroxide (A1(OH)3) and/or calcium carbonate (Ca CO3). However, this effect is counterbalanced by risk of aluminium intoxication and hypercalcemia. An alternative to the use of these phosphate binders is the prescription of magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) in association with a magnesium free dialysate. 19 patients with subtoxic plasma aluminium concentration received such a therapy. 9 months after starting the essay 4 patients had been excluded for digestive intolerance (3 cases) and neuro-psychic symptoms related to hypermagnesemia (1 case) after therapy with maximal doses of 6 to 12 g/d. Plasma inorganic phosphorus was decreased from 2.47 +/- 0.32 to 1.86 +/- 0.40 mmol/l (P less than 0.05) and plasma aluminium from 3.03 +/- 0.93 to 1.52 +/- 0.15 mumol/l (P less than 0.05). The results have been obtained without any significant increase in plasma and red cell magnesium levels. Metabolic alkalosis has been observed in association with the increase of ion exchange resin (sodium polystyrene sulfonate: Kayexalate) to treat progressive hyperkalemia. With the exception of possible metabolic effects occurring on a long term basis, Mg(OH)2 in association with magnesium-free dialysate seems of value to treat dialysis hyperphosphatemia.

Long-term use of magnesium hydroxide as a phosphate binder in patients on hemodialysis.

The long-term use of magnesium hydroxide [Mg(OH)2] as a phosphate binder was investigated in 18 patients on chronic hemodialysis. All patients received a basal treatment with oral calcium carbonate. Vitamin D supplements were not used. In period I each patient ingested aluminum hydroxide [Al(OH)3], in period II Mg(OH)2 and in period III Mg(OH)2 and Al(OH)3 together. During period II and III a dialysate devoid of Mg was used. Mg(OH)2 doses were adjusted to prevent severe hypermagnesemia and diarrhea. The mean dose of Mg(OH)2 in period II was 2.4 +/- 0.6 and in period III 2.6 +/- 1.2 g/day. Serum phosphate increased significantly in period II and fell again in period III. Despite a halving of the Al(OH)3 dose in period III, serum Al was similar in period I and period III (55.8 +/- 19.1 vs 57.1 +/- 27.3 microg/l). Parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentration fell in period II and decreased even further in period III. We conclude that oral Mg(OH)2 may reduce the required Al(OH)3 dose, however, without an effect on serum Al concentration. The observed suppression of parathyroid activity needs further study.

CeOx-Induced Spatial and Electronic Modulation for General Direct Oxo Coupling in Transition Metal Hydroxides.

Electrochemical water splitting has emerged as a sustainable paradigm for hydrogen generation, where sluggish kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyzed by transition metal-based materials remain the critical bottleneck. Herein, we present a strategy that anchors CeOx nanoparticles (∼2 nm) onto two-dimensional Ni(OH)2 nanosheets, enabling dual modulation of spatial configuration and electronic states to accelerate O-O coupling. Spatially, interfacial lattice distortion between CeOx and Ni(OH)2 optimizes Ni-Ni dual-metal sites with reduced interatomic spacing. Electronically, dynamic modulation through reversible Ce3+/Ce4+ redox cycling positions Ce as an electronic regulation hub, stabilizing Ni species at the catalytically favorable +3 oxidation state through Ce─O─Ni interactions. This synergistic effect shifts the pathway from adsorbate evolution mechanism (AEM) to oxide pathway mechanism (OPM). The prepared CeOx@Ni(OH)2 achieves an overpotential of 152 mV at 10 mA cm-2 and operates continuously over 2000 h with limited performance decay. When integrated into an alkaline anion exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE), it requires 1.91 V to attain 1 A cm-2 and maintains stable operation for 450 h. This OPM activation strategy shows potential applicability across CeOx-loaded transition metal hydroxides, including Ni(OH)2, Co(OH)2, NiCo, and NiFe layered double hydroxides, offering a promising approach for alkaline OER enhancement.

Increased selectivity in the detection of glycoproteins on nitrocellulose membranes by washing with sodium hydroxide solution.

We increased selectivity in the detection of glycoproteins on nitrocellulose membranes by introducing a washing step using sodium hydroxide solution. Glycoproteins on the nitrocellulose membrane were first oxidized by sodium periodate; biotin hydrazide was then coupled to the aldehyde groups generated in the sugar moiety of the glycoproteins. The membrane was washed twice using sodium hydroxide solution, and avidin-horseradish peroxidase was then coupled to the remaining biotin. This system allows the detection of nanograms of glycoproteins on nitrocellulose membranes, and its specificity allows the clear distinction of glycoproteins from the nonglycosylated protein of bovine serum albumin.

Comparison of IR spectroscopic analysis and X-ray diffraction of aluminum hydroxide gel.

Data are presented which demonstrate the IR spectrophotometry is more sensitive than X-ray diffraction to structural changes occurring in aluminum hydroxide gel during aging. By examining changes in peak shape and position in the IR spectrum, evidence is seen for an increasing degree of order as the gel ages. The increased order may be responsible for the loss of acid reactivity observed during aging. IR analysis is also recommended for routine monitoring of aluminum hydroxide gels.

Role of carbonate in acid neutralization of aluminum hydroxide gel.

The role of carbonate in the acid neutralization of a carbonate-containing aluminum hydroxide gel was studied. The pH-stat neutralization reaction was comprised of three phases: an initial, immediately reacting phase; a slow, zero-order phase; and a terminal, fast zero-order phase. The evolution of carbon dioxide and the appearance of aluminum ions were monitored during neutralization. Acid neutralization is believed to occur predominantly at the aluminum-carbonate bond during the slow phase of neutralization. The reaction of structural carbonate disrupts the gel structure and increases the porosity and surface area of the gel. The diffusion of acid into the gel structure is facilitated and accelerates the neutralization rate, as seen in the final phase of the pH-stat titrigrams. The behavior of carbonate is probably responsible for the rapid and complete neutralization of acid generally observed with carbonate-containing aluminum hydroxide gel.

Effect of the pH-zero point of charge relationship on the interaction of ionic compounds and polyols with aluminum hydroxide gel.

The adsorption of magnesium nitrate, docusate sodium, and mannitol by chloride-containing aluminum hydroxide gel or aluminum hydroxycarbonate gel can be directly related to the surface charge characteristics of the aluminum hydroxide gel as determined by the pH-zero point of charge (ZPC) relationship. Magnesium cation is completely adsorbed under pH conditions where the gel has a negative surface charge, i.e. when the pH is above the ZPC. Docusate sodium is more strongly adsorbed when the pH-ZPC relationship causes the surface charge of aluminum when the pH-ZPC relationship causes the surface charge of aluminum hydroxycarbonate gel to be positive indicating adsorption of the docusate anion. However, adsorption also occurred when the pH was above the ZPC suggesting that adsorption of the hydrophobic portion of docusate anion by van der Waals forces also contributes to the overall adsorption mechanism. Mannitol is adsorbed under all pH conditions. However, greater adsorption occurs when the pH is above the ZPC. Maximum hydrogen bonding is believed to occur when mannitol acts as the proton donor and the negative aluminum hydroxycarbonate gel surface serves as the proton acceptor.

Properties of carbonate-containing aluminum hydroxide produced by precipitation at constant pH.

Carbonate-containing aluminum hydroxide was precipitated at constant pH at intervals of 0.5 pH units from pH 6 to 10 by pumping 0.5 M AlCl3 into the reaction vessel at a constant rate of 2 mL/min and infusing 2 M Na2CO3 at a rate necessary to maintain the desired pH. The pH of precipitation affected both the particle size and the composition of the precipitate. The particle size of the precipitate decreased as the pH of precipitation was increased from 6 to 10. The precipitates formed between pH 7.5 and 9.5 contained crystalline sodium aluminum hydroxycarbonate (dawsonite) in addition to amorphous carbonate-containing aluminum hydroxide.

Adsorption of pepsin by aluminum hydroxide II: Pepsin inactivation.

Pepsin adsorbed on gibbsite or boehmite, non-acid-reactive forms of aluminum hydroxide, had a significantly lower activity than pepsin in solution. IR and desorbed pepsin activity studies showed that the reduced activity of adsorbed pepsin was not due to denaturation of pepsin on adsorption. Steric occlusion of the active site, following pepsin adsorption, was responsible for the lower activity of pepsin adsorbed on gibbsite. The porous morphology of boehmite caused diffusional resistance and steric exclusion, contributing to the decreased activity of adsorbed pepsin. The specific inactivation of pepsin by adsorption on aluminum hydroxide may be important in ulcer therapy.

Point of zero charge of amorphous aluminum hydroxide as a function of adsorbed carbonate.

The point of zero charge of 36 carbonate-containing aluminum hydroxide gels decreased with increased carbonate-to-aluminum molar ratio. Theoretical analysis supported this observation and showed that the point of zero charge was sensitive to low fractional coverage of surface sites by carbonate and that divalent carbonate is the predominant form of carbonate on the surface. The implications of the pH-point of zero charge relationship of aluminum hydroxide on the viscosity, adsorptive properties, rate of filtration, and removal of sodium are discussed.

Role of water in the aging of aluminum hydroxide suspensions.

The rate of acid neutralization of anhydrous suspensions of amorphous aluminum hydroxide in methanol did not change during aging. At low water content, when all of the water was adsorbed, an initial decrease in the rate of acid neutralization was observed but no further change occurred during aging. When enough water was present to exceed the adsorptive capacity and produce water in the bulk methanol, the initial rate of acid neutralization decreased and a decrease in the rate of acid neutralization also occurred during aging. The decrease in rate of acid neutralization during aging is believed to be due to polymorphic transformation of the amorphous aluminum hydroxide and aggregation. The change caused by aggregation could be reversed by dehydration or sonication, but the change due to polymorphic transformation could not be reversed.

Interaction of bovine serum albumin with the surface of a microcrystalline aluminum oxide hydroxide compound: a possible new type of phosphate adsorbent.

Aluminum hydroxide gel (ALG) has been effective for ameliorating acidosis associated with phosphatemia caused by hemodialysis. However, aluminum accumulation in the body causes severe side effects. As substitute for ALG, a new type of aluminum oxide hydroxide (tentatively named PT-A) was prepared with the hope of future clinical use. PT-A has a microcrystalline structure with a high resistance to pH change and has more phosphate-binding efficacy than ALG. It was tested for possible interaction with protein by adsorption test, zeta-potential analysis, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) was chosen as a model protein. The interaction of BSA with PT-A depended on the amount of adsorbent. Protein adsorption occurred rapidly and reached the maximal level at near neutral pHs. Phosphate adsorption was not affected by the presence of BSA, but the interaction of BSA with PT-A was significantly reduced by the presence of phosphate. Zeta-potential changes on the surface of PT-A indicated that the positively charged surface of PT-A was covered with negatively charged phosphate ions that repelled negatively charged BSA molecules. X-ray diffraction patterns indicated no observable structural alteration caused by adsorption of BSA or phosphate, and scanning electron microscopy revealed that BSA covered the outer surface of PT-A but did not cover small pores, where phosphate can freely penetrate.

Structural analysis of the zinc hydroxide-Thr-199-Glu-106 hydrogen-bond network in human carbonic anhydrase II.

The significance of the zinc hydroxide-Thr-199-Glu-106 hydrogen-bond network in the active site of human carbonic anhydrase II has been examined by X-ray crystallographic analyses of site-specific mutants. Mutants with Ala-199 and Ala-106 or Gln-106 have low catalytic activities, while a mutant with Asp-106 has almost full CO2 hydration activity. The structures of these four mutants, as well as that of the bicarbonate complex of the mutant with Ala-199, have been determined at 1.7 to 2.2 A resolution. Removal of the gamma atoms of residue 199 leads to a distorted tetrahedral geometry at the zinc ion, and a catalytically important zinc-bound water molecule has moved towards Glu-106. In the bicarbonate complex of the mutant with Ala-199 one oxygen atom from bicarbonate binds to zinc without displacing this water molecule. Tetrahedral coordination geometries are retained in the mutants at position 106. The mutants with Ala-106 and Gln-106 have a zinc-bound sulfate ion, whereas this sulfate site is only partially occupied in the mutant with Asp-106. The hydrogen-bond network seems to be "reversed" in the mutants with Ala-106 and Gln-106. The network is preserved as in native enzyme in the mutant with Asp-106 but the side chain of Asp-106 is more extended than that of Glu-106 in the native enzyme. These results illustrate the importance of Glu-106 and Thr-199 for controlling the precise coordination geometry of the zinc ion and its ligand preferences which results in an optimal orientation of a zinc-bound hydroxide ion for an attack on the CO2 substrate.

Inactivation kinetics of model and relevant blood-borne viruses by treatment with sodium hydroxide and heat.

To determine the efficacy of a clean-in-place system for the inactivation of viruses present in human plasma, the effect of 0.1 M sodium hydroxide at 60 degrees C on viral infectivity was investigated. Inactivation of the following model and relevant viruses were followed as a function of time: human hepatitis A virus (HAV), canine parvovirus (CPV; a model for human parvovirus B-19) pseudorabies virus (PRV, a model for hepatitis B virus), and bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV, a model for hepatitis C virus and human immunodeficiency virus). Infectivity of CPV was determined by a novel in situ EIA method which will prove useful for studies to validate parvovirus inactivation or removal. Infectivity of BVDV, PRV and CPV were shown to be reproducibly inactivated below the limit of detection by 0.1 M NaOH at 60 degrees C within 30 s. HAV was inactivated to below the limit of detection within 2 min. Treatment with heat alone also resulted in some log reduction for all viruses tested except for CPV which remained unaffected after heating at 60 degrees C for 16 min. Treatment of HAV with hydroxide alone (up to 1.0 m) at 15 degrees C did not lead to rapid inactivation. Collectively, these data suggest that 0.1 M NaOH at 60 degrees C for two min should be sufficient to inactivate viruses present in process residues.

Effectiveness of sodium hydroxide as a pleural sclerosing agent in rabbits: influence of concomitant intrapleural lidocaine.

The two agents that have been used most commonly to produce a pleurodesis are tetracycline and bleomycin. Tetracycline is no longer generally available because of more stringent requirements on the manufacturing process. Bleomycin is very expensive. Therefore, alternative agents are necessary particularly in developing countries. The objective of this project was to determine whether 0.5% sodium hydroxide is an effective sclerosant in an experimental model in rabbits. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) (2 ml of 0.5%) was instilled intrapleurally in 24 anesthetized male rabbits. Half the rabbits received 1 ml of 2% lidocaine 3-5 min before the NaOH. Twenty-eight days after the instillation, the animals were sacrificed, and the pleural spaces were assessed grossly for evidence of pleurodesis and microscopically for evidence of fibrosis and inflammation. The results indicated that the intrapleural injection of NaOH was effective in creating a pleurodesis only if the animals were not premedicated with lidocaine. The mean (+/- S.D.) degree of gross pleurodesis after NaOH alone 2.8 (1.0) was significantly (p < 0.001) greater than after that following the combination 1.3 (0.5). We conclude that NaOH is an effective pleural sclerosant but that it is ineffective if it is injected concomitantly with lidocaine.

Prophylactic aluminium hydroxide and hyperaluminaemia in intensive care.

Prophylactic antacid therapy is widely used in intensive care units. We show that significant hyperaluminaemia may occur during the course of prophylaxis with aluminium hydroxide in patients with compromised renal function. Since a significant proportion of patients in intensive care have, or are at risk of developing, renal failure we suggest that the routine use of aluminium hydroxide should be avoided.

Lack of effect of magnesium-aluminium hydroxide on the absorption of theophylline given as a pH-dependent sustained release preparation.

Antacids can modify the pharmacokinetic parameters of sustained-release preparations of theophylline by changing the gastric pH. Though this has been studied with various theophylline/antacid combinations, the specific preparations investigated here have not previously been tested. The objective of the study was to assess any change in the availability of theophylline from a sustained-release preparation (SR), induced by the coadministration with an antacid. The study was designed as a double-blind randomized crossover trial in the Pneumology Departments of three general hospitals. Fifteen patients were studied. They all had stable asthma treated with theophylline and no major organ failure or gastro-intestinal lesions requiring the use of antacids. The antacid (aluminium hydroxide 800 mg and magnesium hydroxide 800 mg), or placebo, tid, was added to a stable regimen of theophylline SR bid, for 4 days, in crossover fashion. Plasma theophylline concentrations were measured before and 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 24 h after the morning dose of Armophylline on the fourth day of each treatment period; the maximum plasma concentration (Cmax), and time to Cmax (tmax) were noted, and the area under the 24-h time-concentration curve (AUC0-24) and mean plasma concentration (Cmean) were computed. Peak expiratory flows on the same day, before and 3, 6 and 12 h after the morning dose of Armophylline were also measured. There was no change in any of the parameters studied. The addition of the antacid to theophylline, each given according to standard clinical practice, did not modify the pharmacokinetics of the latter.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
