Nail discoloration, in which the nails appear white, yellow, or green, can result from different infections and conditions of the skin. In about 50% of cases, discolored nails are a result of infections with common fungi that can be found in the air, dust, and soil.
Doxycycline is well absorbed. After an oral dose of 200 mg of doxycycline, plasma concentrations of the drug reach a maximum of 3 micrograms/mL at 2 hours and are well maintained and thus dosage once daily is usually adequate. Absorption is diminished by the presence of iron, aluminium, calcium and magnesium. Doxycycline is widely distributed into pleural and peritoneal fluid, saliva, semen and prostatic fluid. It passes the placental barrier readily and is also present in the milk of lactating patients.
There are two chemicals used in this reaction, 1,6-hexadiamine (which is in a water solution) and adipoyl chloride (which is in a hexane solution). Think back to what you learned in this course about solutions and intermolecular forces.dipoyl chloride do not donate H-bonds, and may only accept two. Because of the 1) differences in polarity, and 2) primarily 1,6-hexanediamine's ability to form hydrogen bonds with itself they will never mix together.
