Tag Hexane (Normal)

In-vitro investigation of Morus nigra L. (Moraceae) has demonstrated the evidence of several antioxidant compounds. Current study was aimed to determine the phytoconstituents and hepatoprotective potential of n-hexane extract of Morus nigra. Swiss albino mice were divided into five groups: normal control, paracetamol control, silymarin control, 250 mg/kg p.o. extract for 7 days plus paracetamol 3 h later, 500 mg/kg p.o. extract for 7 days plus paracetamol 3 h later. Serum levels of liver enzymes and total bilirubin were assessed and compared between the groups by using one-way ANOVA to confirm hepatoprotective activity. HPLC analysis revealed the presence quercetin, oleanolic acid, luteolin, apigenin, vitamin C and kuwanon C. n-hexane extract of Morus nigra at dose of 250 mg/kg reduced elevated ALT by 54.3% (p<0.001), AST by 55.1% (p<0.01), ALP by 28.5% (p<0.01) and TBR by 56.4% (p<0.01) as compared to paracetamol control. The dose of 500 mg/kg of the extract reduced the ALT levels by 62.9% (p<0.001), AST by 56.7% (p<0.01), ALP by 33.6% (p<0.01) and TBR by 54.5% (p<0.01), as compared to paracetamol group. However, the reduction of liver enzymes and total bilirubin after administration of extract was comparable to the silymarin. Current study demonstrated potential hepatoprotective activity of n-hexane extract of Morus nigra.

EmS means ‘Emergency Response Procedures for Ships Carrying Dangerous Goods (EmS Guide) and EmS codes are assigned to each UN Number in column 15 of Dangerous Goods List in IMDG Code chapter 3.2. EmS is two part codes first for fire starting with letter “F” and second for spillage starting with letter “S”.  EmS tables are published in supplement to IMDG Code.  Fire schedule codes are from F-A to F-J and spillage schedule codes are from S-A to S-Z.

A well trained crew is the best team to deal with fire on board ships keeping this in mind the on board training must include EmS to be well prepared for incidents involving fire or spillage.

Basic Information of Dangerous Goods

n-Hexane is an organic solvent with good viscosity. It is commonly used in rubber food, pharmacy, perfume, shoe making, adhesive tape, ball making, grinding, leather, textile, furniture, paint industry, or dilution, or cleaning solvent, or viscose. In addition, it can be a solvent for extracting seed oil, such as soybean oil, cottonseed oil, linseed oil, peanut, safflower seed oil, etc; It can also be used as a raw material for manufacturing polymers, such as polypropylene and polyethylene.

What is dangerous goods EMS no? Detailed explanation of the corresponding meaning of the number!

For the export of dangerous goods, it is often required to fill in EMS no on the documents. What does this mean? Let’s get to know each other!

EMS no (emergency schedule number)
EMS guide is divided into two parts: fire emergency measures table and spill emergency measures table. It provides emergency response guidance for ships transporting dangerous goods in case of fire or spill.
Table of fire emergency measures:
F-A: general fire extinguishing procedures
F-B: explosive substances and articles
F-C: non flammable gas
F-D: flammable gas
F-E: flammable liquid that does not react with water
F-f: temperature controlled self reactive substances and organic peroxides
F-G: substances reacting with water
F-H: explosive oxidizing substance
F-I: radioactive substances
F-J: non temperature controlled self reactive substances and organic peroxides
Emergency measures for spillage:
S-A: toxic substances
S-B: corrosive substances
S-C: flammable and corrosive liquid
S-D: flammable liquid
S-E: flammable liquid, floating on the water
S-f: water soluble marine pollutants
S-G: flammable solid and self reactive substance
S-H: flammable solid (molten substance)
S-I: flammable solid (repackable)
S-J: wetted explosives and some self heating substances
S-K: temperature controlled self reactive substance
S-L: substances that spontaneously ignite and react with water
S-M: substances with ignition and spontaneous combustion hazard
S-N: substances that react strongly with water
S-O: goods in danger of moisture (not collectable)
S-P: wet dangerous goods (collectable)
S-q: oxidizing substance
S-R: organic peroxide
S-S: radioactive substance
S-T: biologically dangerous goods
S-U: gas (flammable, toxic or corrosive)
S-V: gas (non flammable and non-toxic)
S-W: oxidizing gas
S-x: Explosive
