NSAIDs Most NSAIDs act as non-selective inhibitors of the enzyme cyclooxygenase, inhibiting both the cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) isoenzymes. Cyclooxygenase catalyses the formation of prostaglandins and thromboxane from arachidonic acid (itself derived from the cellular phospholipid bilayer by phospholipase A2). Prostaglandins act (among other things) as messenger molecules in the process of inflammation. This mechanism of action was elucidated by John Vane, who later received a Nobel Prize for this work.

Киселинно-основно титруване в ледена оцетна киселина: неводна среда Ледената оцетна киселина е един от най-широко използваните разтворители за определяне на слаби незаредени бази. Тя има силно изразен протондонорен характер, поради което засилва базичния и отслабва киселинния характер на протолитите. Напр. незаредени бази стават с около 3 рКа единици по-силни. Ниската диелектрична константа на средата (4.9) води до силна йонизация и ниска дисоциация на протолитите. Като стандартен разтвор при титруването на бази се използва перхлорна киселина в оцетна киселина. При разтварянето протичат следните процеси: HClO4 + CH3COOH = CH3COOH2+ . ClO4B + CH3COOH = BH+. CH3COOBH+. CH3COO- + CH3COOH2+ . ClO4- = BH+. ClO4- + 2 CH3COOH Когато базите са във вид на хидрохлориди или хидробромиди се прибавя разтвор на живачен (ІІ) ацетат. В резултат на тази реакция се освобождават базите, а хлоридните и бромидните йони се свързват в малко разтворими съединения.

Eur. method 2.2.30) Size-exclusion chromatography is a chromatographic technique which separates molecules in solution according to their size. With organic mobile phases, the technique is known as gel-permeation chromatography and with aqueous mobile phases, the term gel-filtration chromatography has been used. The sample is introduced into a column, which is filled with a gel or a porous particle packing material, and is carried by the mobile phase through the column. The size separation takes place by repeated exchange of the solute molecules between the solvent of the mobile phase and the same solvent in the stagnant liquid phase (stationary phase) within the pores of the packing material. The pore-size range of the packing material determines the molecular-size range within which separation can occur.
