Product Information

Mixtures consist of a collection of different compounds. Occasionally, the number of elements may be quite high, or sometimes quite low, but as long as there is more than one element in an object, it is a mixture. Orange juice in your glass, a cup of tea, detergents in the bathroom or milk – all these substances are mixtures. Note: There is a difference between US Customary Units and the Imperial System for volume conversions. The US gallon contains 128 US fluid ounces, whereas the Imperial gallon contains 160 Imperial fluid ounces. Cubic Volume Units Unit Activation of the afferent vagal fibres may also cause a release of 5HT (serotonin) in the area postrema, which further stimulates vomiting via central mechanisms. Thus, the effect of ondansetron in the management of the nausea and vomiting induced by cytotoxic chemotherapy and radiotherapy is probably due to competitive antagonism of 5HT3 receptors on neurons located both in the peripheral and central nervous system.

Milliliter (ml) is a unit of Volume used in Metric system. Please note this is weight to volume conversion, this conversion is valid only for pure water at temperature 4°C. The United States fluid ounce was initially based on the wine gallon used in England prior to 1824. After the adoption of the international inch in 1959, the US fluid ounce became equal to exactly 29.5735295625 mL. Early phase I studies in healthy elderly volunteers showed a slight age-related decrease in clearance, and an increase in the half-life of ondansetron. However, wide inter-subject variability resulted in considerable overlap in pharmacokinetic parameters between young (< 65 years of age) and elderly subjects (≥ 65 years of age). No differences in safety and efficacy were observed between young and elderly cancer patients enrolled in the clinical studies to investigate chemotherapy-induced vomiting and nausea to support a different dose recommendations for the elderly patients.

In some countries that use the imperial system, such as the United States and Canada, milliliters are used for measuring some liquids and gases, such as medicine, perfume, ink, and blood. Etoposide: Concentrations in the range 0.144 mg/ml to 0.25 mg/ml (e.g. 72 mg in 500 ml to 250 mg in 1000 ml), administered over 30 minutes to one hour. In the scientific industry, milliliters are used for measuring chemical solutions, reactions, and concentrations. In a pre- and postnatal developmental toxicity studies, pregnant rats received oral doses of ondansetron of 15 mg/kg/day from day 17 of gestation up to parturition on day 21. With the exception of a slight reduction in maternal body weight gain, there were no toxic effects of ondansetron in pregnant rats or on the pre- and postnatal development of offspring, including reproductive behaviour in the associated F1 generation. At a dose of 15 mg/kg/day in rats, the maternal dose was approximately 24 times the maximum recommended human oral dose of 24 mg/day based on body surface area. A single dose greater than 16 mg must not be given due to dose dependent increase of the risk of QT prolongation (see section 4.4).

The uncia was borrowed into Old English as ynsan or yndsan from a Vulgar Latin form with ts for c before i (palatalization). This became inch in modern English. Clearance of ondansetron is significantly reduced and serum half-life significantly prolonged in patients with moderate or severe hepatic impairment. In these patients a total daily dose of 8 mg must not be exceeded. Ondansetron is a potent, highly selective 5HT3 receptor antagonist. Its precise mechanism of action in the control of nausea and vomiting is not known. The ounce was standardized by international agreements, such as the international yard and pound agreement of 1959 and the international troy ounce agreement of 1958. Milliliters are used for measuring various materials and substances in different countries and applications.In Australia and New Zealand, ounces are used for measuring food portions and ingredients, precious metals and gems and baby weights.
