Abstract: The invention relates to a self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (“SMEDDS”) of mitotane, with enhanced bioavailability. More particularly the invention provides a mitotane oily formulation comprising propylene glycol monocaprylate (10 to 30% w/w), propylene glycol dicaprate (20 to 60% w/w) and polyoxyethylenesorbitanne monooleate (10 to 30% w/w).

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a composition and method for sample preparation of proteins for their size separation by electrophoresis, suitable for molecular-weight determination of proteins in the range between about 14,000 and 500,000. In an embodiment, proteins, particularly those exhibiting biased migration, are modified to change their intrinsic charge, or carbohydrate component to improve accuracy of their molecular weights as determined by electrophoretic size separation via their interaction with ionic surfactants. In a preferred embodiment, the proteins are carbamylated with potassium cyanate and their carbohydrate components are oxidized with sodium periodate.
