Following a detailed study, a rapid and sensitive assay for the naturally fluorescent collagen cross-links pyridinoline and deoxypyridinoline has been developed using ion-pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography in the presence of 1-octanesulphonic acid (OSA). Pyridinoline and deoxypyridinoline were separated on

We have observed dual transitions in various physical properties while investigating the surfactant-like behavior of the ionic liquid (IL) 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium octylsulfate [C(4)mim][C(8)SO(4)] in aqueous media. Interestingly, in conductivity measurements, it was found that the second transition, which is comparatively weak
