Item Liquid-liquid equilibrium of poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water at different temperatures(2008) Amaresh, S.P.; Murugesan, S.; Iyyaswami, I.; Murugesan, T.Liquid-liquid equilibrium for an aqueous two-phase system containing poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water was studied at four different temperatures of (25, 30, 35, and 45)°C. The binodal curve was fitted to three different empirical equations relating the concentrations of PEG 4000 and diammonium hydrogen phosphate, and the coefficients were estimated for the respective temperatures for all three equations. The effective excluded volume values were obtained from the binodal model for the present system, and salting-out ability of the salt was discussed. Tie line compositions were correlated using the Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations, and the parameters are also reported. Further, the experimental binodal data of the poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water system were compared to poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water for (25, 35, and 45)°C. © 2008 American Chemical Society.Item Densities and viscosities of poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water systems(2009) Iyyaswami, I.; Murugesan, S.; Amaresh, S.P.; Govindarajan, R.; Murugesan, T.The densities and viscosities of binary and ternary solutions of the poly(ethylene glycol) 4000 (PEG4000) + diammonium hydrogen phosphate + water system were determined at different temperatures [(298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K]. The measured density and viscosity data of all the binary and ternary systems were fitted to available empirical correlations, for the corresponding temperatures. The density data show a linear variation with mass fraction of the polymer for all temperatures. The viscosity data of all the solutions were correlated as a function of their mass fraction, using a nonlinear equation, for the five different temperatures covered in the present work. Densities and viscosities of PEG4000 - diammonium hydrogen phosphate two-phase systems have been measured at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K. The tie line lengths (TLL) of the aqueous two-phase systems have also been estimated, and the effect of the physical properties on the TLL is also reported. © 2009 American Chemical Society.Item Liquid-liquid equilibrium of poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 + triammonium citrate + water systems at different temperatures(2009) Iyyaswami, I.; Murugesan, S.; Govindarajan, R.; Amaresh, S.P.; Murugesan, T.Liquid - liquid equilibrium for an aqueous two-phase system containing poly(ethylene glycol) 6000 + triammonium citrate + water was studied at five different temperatures, (25, 30, 35, 40, and 45) °C. The binodal curve was fitted to an empirical equation relating the concentrations of PEG 6000 and triammonium citrate, and the coefficients were estimated for the respective temperatures. The effective excluded volume values were obtained from the binodal data. Tie line compositions were estimated and correlated using Othmer - Tobias and Bancroft equations, and the parameters are reported. © 2009 American Chemical Society.Item Liquid-liquid equilibrium of poly(ethylene glycol) 2000 + diammonium hydrogen citrate + water system at different temperatures(2011) Iyyaswami, I.; Srikanth, C.K.; Sindhu, N.Phase diagrams and liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) data of the aqueous poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-2000) + diammonium hydrogen citrate system (aqueous two-phase system) has been determined experimentally at (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, 313.15, and 318.15) K. The effects of temperature on the binodal curve and tie-lines have been studied. The binodal curve was fitted to an empirical equation relating the concentrations of PEG 2000 and diammonium hydrogen citrate, and the coefficients were estimated for the respective temperatures. Tie line compositions were estimated and correlated using Othmer-Tobias and Bancroft equations, and the parameters are reported. The effect of temperature on the phase-forming ability in the investigated system has been studied based on a salting-out coefficient; obtained from fitting the binodal data to a Setschenow-type equation for each temperature. The effective excluded volume values were also calculated from the binodal data. © 2011 American Chemical Society.Item Analysis of ionic and nonionic surfactants blends used for the reverse micellar extraction of Lactoperoxidase from whey(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2021) Karanth, S.; Iyyaswami, I.Bovine Lactoperoxidase (LP), a minor whey protein, is used as an antimicrobial in cosmetic, food, and pharmaceutical preparations. Industries are in pursuit of reliable, cheap, and scalable purification methods as the conventional techniques for LP purification like chromatography and membrane separation suffer from several drawbacks. The present work investigates the selective reverse micellar extraction of LP using the reverse micellar system formed by mixing food grade nonionic (Tween, Span, and Triton series) and ionic (AOT) surfactant blends. The analysis of LP extraction efficiency was performed by varying the concentration of nonionic surfactants with a constant AOT concentration of 100 mM and the initial pH of the system. Complete LP solubilization was achieved with reverse micelles formed by 100 mM AOT and 20 mM Tween 80 at pH 8. It was found that the extraction efficiency was dependent on the chain length or the number of ethylene oxide units in the Triton surfactant tail and the carbon–carbon double bond in Tween 80 tail, that is, on oleic acid. Span series however showed poor extraction in the organic phase substantiating the lesser water content. The forward extracted LP was successfully back-extracted into a fresh aqueous phase containing 1 M KCl at pH 10.5. The aqueous phase (whey) from the forward transfer can be further used to fractionate other whey proteins. © 2020 Curtin University and John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
