What is Costochondritis? The purpose of this description is to educate people on non-heart related chest pain from costochondritis. WHAT IS COSTOCHONDRITIS? Costochondritis‚ also known as chest wall pain or costosternal syndrome‚ is an inflammatory condition which consists of swelling‚ pain and localized tenderness in the costal cartilage which connects your upper ribs to your sternum. One of the first indicators of costochondritis is chest pain which may be reproduced

in comparison with chromatograms of aspirin‚ Acetaminophen‚ caffeine and mefenamic acid. After the TLC was placed inside a UV chromatography box‚ it appears that the sample analgesic contains D‚ which is mefenamic acid. Keywords: Chromatography‚ Pigments‚ Analgesics‚ TLC Results and discussion Thin layer chromatography is a useful method of quickly determining the main active ingredients of commercial analgesics containing aspirin (A)‚ acetaminophen (B)‚ caffeine (C) and mefenamic acid (D).

death. Due to the level of acetaminophen in these medication they should never be taken with other medication that contain it. This could cause serious adverse reaction. Hydrocodone is another narcotic pain medication that is highly addictive‚ and illegally sold and used on the streets. Depressants like these should never be used by people who have breathing problems. Death can occur if/when alcohol is mixed with this medication. Percocet is a mixture of acetaminophen and oxycodone.

Briefing Thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is an extremely valuable analytical technique. It provides a rapid separation of compounds‚ and gives an indication of the number and nature of the components of a mixture. TLC can also be used to identify compounds by comparison with known samples‚ to check the purity of a compound‚ or to monitor the progress of a reaction‚ an extraction‚ or a purification procedure. This experiment will introduce you to the mechanics of TLC‚ and the chemical principles

Introduction In a chromatographic separation process‚ different kinds of functional groups and number of functional groups of molecules will determine the separation. Depending on what kind of solute‚ solvent‚ and adsorbent used‚ molecules will experience the interaction during dynamic equilibrium. On a TLC plate‚ capillary tube is used to transfer o- and p- hydroxyacetopheone‚ taking advantage of capillary force to make small spotting. A 30:70 ether acetate: petroleum ether is used as a solvent

Chromatography – Analyzing Analgesics by TLC and Isolation of β-Carotene by Column Chromatography Introduction/Background: Flavonoids are an important group of additives that can be defined as pure substances either natural‚ extracted from raw materials or synthetic. Chromatography is the separation of two or more compounds or ions caused by their molecular interactions with two phases – one moving and one stationary (Weldegirma 2012). Three types of chromatography are used
