Questions related to Solubility
I need to prepare the above solution as a vehicle for a drug to be administered p.o. but I am struggling to find a clear protocol.
As I understand it, the methylcellulose should be added to heated H2O to aid solubility - i.e. heat H2O to 80 degrees celsius with stirring and then slowly add methylcellulose to the water until it forms a cloudy white solution, stirring for roughly 30 minutes.
Then keep the 0.5% methycellulose (2.5g in 500ml water for example) at 4 degrees with stirring overnight until the solution turns clear. Then add the appropriate volume of Tween80 to produce final of 0.2%.
Can anyone recommend any changes to the above protocol or is this correct?
I want to remove unreacted acrylic acid from reaction mixture. Acrylic acid is soluble in large number of solvents it is very difficult to remove.

I have a hydrophilic molecule, but it is not soluble in water. I tried a formulation of 5% DMSO, tween 80 1%, PEG 300 20%, and remaining water, but it is still not fully soluble. I've replaced tween 80 1% with tween 20 1%, but still, the molecule is partially soluble. I've attached the structure of my molecule herewith. Please suggest a good formulation to dissolve my molecule completely.

Hello friends,
I am working on the design of the RO system for mining wastewater. I have 115 ppm of BOD in feed. I am always confuse about what should be the maximum limit of BOD in RO feed. Majority of big companies like DOW specifies 5 - 10 ppm of max BOD is allowed in RO feed. However, they are not specifying that whether it should be soluble BOD or insoluble BOD. If we have 100 ppm of soluble BOD than I don't see any reason why we can not use RO. If it is insoluble; than it depends on particle size. I would highly appreciate if some one can give me information about what should be the maximum BOD/COD concentration in RO feed and which type of BOD / COD is allowed? (like soluble, insoluble etc.). Also BOD and COD are generalized terms. There are many compounds fall in this category. Does someone has some type of article or document that includes different type of BODs and CODs and tell us whether they can pass through RO or not.
Many Thanks.
Dear colleagues
what are the biocompatible stabilizers that are soluble in PBS and can be used in anti cancer treatments?
I did a synthesis of a carbonyl ruthenium complex coordinated with the 1H-imidazole-1-ylacetic acid, but I'm having problems in the purification process. All the mixture is only slightly soluble in methanol, so purification for classic chromatography is unreliable. Acid or basic addition to a water solution of this mixture does not produce any change in solubility or precipitation. Any suggestions are welcome.
Dear ResearchGate Team
We are working on the synthesis of the compound Li6[α-P2W18O62]·28H2O. First step is the dissolution of lithium tungstate Li2WO4 in boiling water. However, our >99% pure compound does not tend to dissolve, it creates a white-milky suspension when stirred. We heated it at 100 C for almost 12 hours, with and without ultrasound bath. Can anyone help with dissolving this compound? We took 51g of LiWo4 and 80 mL DI.
Thanks and Best regards

Good day,
I have predicted solubility of my solute in a mixture and what I found is confusing me in terms of its units. Since COSMO-RS predicts the solubility and gives different values and I am unable to figure out the actual predicted value from COSMO-RS after reading the research articles because most of the papers do not include the values hence units/details are missing. In some articles, they mentioned the solubility in g/kg (attached figure). I shall be grateful if someone can explain which value will I consider for predicted solubility along with its units.
Thank you.

I Have Recently I have begun a project on expression and purification of a cytoplasmic protein. When running analytical Superdex 200 the protein elutes in the void volume despite the monomer being around 45kDa.
As such I have been trying several conditions to alleviate the problem (addition of salts/detergents/and other additives). However performing lysis and subsequent SEC takes too long.
As such I am wondering if Thermal Shift/Differential Scanning Fluorimetry be used on soluble aggregates? Or would the data be too difficult to interpret due to complex misfolding pattern o, maybe the increase in melting temp be indicative of a condition that favours the aggregated state.
Any help on the topic would be greatly appreciated.
AIBN: Azobisisobutironitrile
ABCN or ACHN: Azobis(cyclohexanecarbonitrile)
Ref: Inorg Chem 2003 42, 2908-2918 for the usual bromination reaction of 4'-(p-Tolyl)-2,2':6',2''-terpyridine with N-Bromosuccinimide (NBS) in CCl4 with AIBN.
Motivation: in my country, Sigma only sells solutions (acetone or toluene) of AIBN, which I am not used to.
As sigma sells ACHN (or ABCN) in a solid form and claims it is a better radical initiator than AIBN, I would like to try this but I am worried it could completely fail due to simple solubility considerations of ACHN in CCl4.
Many thanks for any help.
As i asked in the question statement, I observed a little amount of PP is soluble in cyclohexane.

Can rubbers be dissolved in a solvent and cured to get respectable physical properties?
I wanted to see if I can cure polar rubbers by blending the ingredients in a suitable solvent. The thought originated with how some rubbers aren't really available in their latex form. What do you think should be the parameters one should take care when using a solvent like Toluene when dissolving rubber chemicals like sulfur and accelerators?
Hello there, I have a new drawback about my project of cassava starch nanoparticles, specially about solubility: I heated the water until 73 °C to improve this property, and I notice the starch is not solubilising at all. I mean, even though I increse the temperature and adding the same mass of last time, I do not understand why my solution still has lumps in it.
One hypotesis I have raised is ambient humidity is affecting it because I live in a tropical country (colombia) and its humidity is high, also I prepared the starch 2 months ago and I left with any use for weeks. It does not smell bad and have not change the color.
I hope your answers resolve this trouble
Thaks for your help
According to theory, solubility of silver bromide in water is 0.14 mg/L. So, the quantity of water is very large, with small amount of silver bromide. My question, is there any method or techniques to dissolve silver bromide with less amount of water, for example in 100ml of water?

During an extraction, I accidentally added a drying agent (MgSO4) to an aqueous layer that happened to contain my product. Is it possible to remove MgSO4 from the mixture or extract my product from there? I thought about evaporating water and dissolving the residue in methanol. I chose methanol because MgSO4 should be only slightly soluble in MeOH and my product should dissolve well in MeOH. What do you think?
Halophilic microbes, also known as halophiles, are microorganisms that thrive in high-salt environments. They have unique mechanisms that enable them to play a significant role in remediating salt-affected soils. Salt-affected soils typically contain high levels of soluble salts, such as sodium chloride (NaCl), which can be detrimental to plant growth and soil.

I hope you are all doing well. Lately, I have been working on tripolymeric triaxial nanoparticles (PCL as core, gelatine as intermediate and PLGA (85:15) as shell). I have successfully managed to achieve optimized parameters for core and intermediate layers for electrospraying but for gelatine, I have some difficulties. I am looking for an alternative solvent, in order to use instead of water. I have tested a variety of options;
I knew it could be dissolved in acetic acid. So I went for the acid, took a lot of time, even at elevated values below degradation temperatures. Results were not satisfying. Furthermore, I worked on preparing a solvent system, combining acetic acid and ethyl acetate together, with different proportions, did not work as well!
I might go for DMSO (considering its cytotoxicity) and PEG. I would really appreciate it if someone could aid me in this regard.

Recombinant proteins extracted from E. coli were purified twice using a Ni-NTA column and an antibody-coupled agarose bead column. After final purification, the protein is in a 10% solution of 1M tris-hcl pH8 + 90% solution of 100mM glycine-hcl pH3. The recombinant protein was dialyzed three times for 2 hours against PBS pH 7.4.
After dialysis, the solution became cloudy and aggregated clumps were observed.
The predicted properties of this protein are soluble, pi value: 7.7.
What are the probable causes of protein aggregation at this time?
1. In fact, it is an insoluble protein.
2. The pI value of the protein (7.7) and the pH value of the buffer (7.4) are similar.
Are there Anything else?
In addition, when protein aggregation is resolved by adding glycerol or adjusting pH, is there any effect on protein activity?
And, When adjusting the pH of a buffer for solubility of the protein, is acidic or basic better? What is the appropriate range of pH values?
I'm going to process this protein into the cells.
Some black materials appeared, when the high-temperature catalyzed esterification. The reactants are curcumin and citric acid, and the blank material could dissolved in a mixture of methanol acetone. When all of the black material is dissolved in the methanol solution, a yellowish solid appears, but this yellowish solid is very poorly water soluble. I'd like to know why this is happening, and by definition the reaction product, polyester, is it not soluble in water? Papers involving similar reactions are in the annex.
In the past I have conjugated an acid to polyethyleneimine with percentage conjugation of around 25%. I wanted to increase this percentage, and so I doubled the amount of acid, EDC and NHS before this solution was added to the polyethyleneimine. After allowing to react in methanol, with no solubility issues, after I precipitated the polymer as normal in diethyl ether, I have found it is now insoluble in water or methanol. However, there was no suggestion of the polymer "crashing out" of solution in methanol while the reaction was stirring. Why is the polymer precipitate suddenly insoluble when this has never been an issue previously? The acid I am using is a simple phenylboronic acid.

Xray diffraction, Fourier transform Infrared spectroscopy is used in many researches regarding increasing solubility of poorly soluble drugs under biopharmaceutics classification system to identify certain parameters of the drug particles/drugs
Is there any regularity in the solubility of electrolyte salts in polymer gels? Taking polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as an example, LiCl can be well dissolved in PVA, followed by NaCl, and KCl is very difficult to dissolve in PVA. In this way, the solubility of salt seems to be related to metal cations, but KOH can be very well dissolved in PVA. ZnCL2 can be well dissolved in polyPVA, but ZnSO4 is very difficult. However, H2SO4 itself is very easy to dissolve in PVA solution.
Thanks.
