Abstract:Background and objectives: Globally, around 200 million people are infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV). India contributes a big proportion of HCV burden with the prevalence estimated between 0.5 and 1.5%. Northeastern tribal populations and areas of Punjab represent the HCV infection hotspots, while in Western and Southern parts of the country, the prevalence is lower. The distribution of HCV genotypes is highly variable. This study was particularly planned to attain knowledge of the prevalent HCV genotypes … Show more
“…Copper soaps have a tendency of complex formation with the compounds containing donors like N, O, Br and S, etc. [5,6]. It is well known that compounds containing N and S atoms play a significant role in biological activities and have sufficient industrial and analytical applications [7].…”
Ultrasonic velocities and densities have been measured in ternary mixtures containing copper soap-urea complexes derived from groundnut and sesame oils in a 20% and a 40% methanolbenzene mixture. From these values, the specific acoustic impedance Z, adiabatic compressibility β, intermolecular free length L f , apparent molar compressibility φ k , molar sound velocity R, primary solvation number Sn have been calculated. The results have been analyzed in terms of Masson's equation. The results have been explained on the basis of intermolecular interactions, and the effect of the polarity of the solvent molecules and the concentration of solute molecules were accessed on various acoustic parameters. Our results also suggest that the behavior of soap complex in benzene dominated environment and methanol dominated environment is quite different as they occupy different positions in palisade layers of soap complexes agglomerations.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
