Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntilithiatic Influence of Spirulina on Ethylene Glycol-Induced Nephrolithiasis in Male RatsAtef M. Al-AttarProblem statement: Nephrolithiasis or renal stone disease remains a significant health problem in the adult population. Nephrolithiasis is a recurrent disorder prominent in males. It is significant medical and surgical problem because of incidence, recurrence and severe consequences. The present day medical management of nephrolithiasis is either costly or not without side effects. Invasive procedures for the treatment of nephrolithiasis … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 70,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCharacterization of Chitosan-poly (Ethylene Oxide) Blends as Haemodialysis MembraneN. F. Mohd Nasir, N. Mohd Zain, M. G. Raha, N. A. KadriBlend membranes of chitosan and poly (ethylene oxide) with different molecular weights of 100,000 and 600,000 were prepared by the solution cast technique. The Chitosan-PEO blend membranes were produced to study their water adsorptions capacity and characteristics of the haemodialysis membrane application. An increase in the water adsorption capacity of chitosan-PEO blend membranes compared to the pure chitosan was due … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 8,426 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleInsertion of poly (ethylene glycol)-lipid reduces the liposome-encapsulated hemoglobininduced thrombocytopenic reactionVibhudutta Awasthi, Beth Goins, William T. PhillipsInteraction with platelets has been recognized as a concern in the development of liposome-encapsulated hemoglobin as an oxygen carrier. This reaction causes a significant drop in circulating platelets in a rapid and transient fashion. We studied the effect of lipid bilayer charge on the magnitude of drop in circulating platelets. We also investigated the effect of post-inserted PEG-lipid on this … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePoly(3,4-Ethylenedioxythiophene):Poly(4-Styrenesulfonate) Anode for ITO-Free Organic Light-Emitting DiodesKeanchuan Lee, Martin WeisOrganic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLEDs) devices using flexible substrates are envisioned for flexible, low-cost and roll-to-roll mass production. However, transparent conductive oxides such as indium tin oxide (ITO) do not fit the requirements of flexible devices, fabricated without vacuum-based technology. Hence, conductive polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) has been proposed as an alternative approach to transparent conductive electrodes. The secondary doping of PEDOT:PSS … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2018 · 7,590 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffect of two Different Permitting and Combination of Cryoprotectants on Cattle Oocytes Maturation Rate Following Brilliant Cresyl Blue ExposureMasindi Lottus Mphaphathi, Hester Adri O'Neill, Tshimangadzo Lucky NedambaleThe objectives of this study were to elucidate the toxicity of Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), Ethylene glycol (EG), and the combination of both permitting cryoprotectants (CPAs) to cattle oocytes and the effectiveness of Brilliant cresyl blue (BCB) on immature oocytes pre-selection. Cattle ovaries were collected from the local slaughterhouse and transported within 2 hours of slaughter. The oocytes were exposed to … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 6 May 2022 · 6,201 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINFLUENCE OF ELECTRON BEAM TREATMENT ON THE CRYSTALLIZATION AND THERMAL STABILITY OF LDPE/EPDM BLENDSBhuwanesh Kumar Sharma, Subhendu Ray Chowdhury, P. A. Mahanwar, K. S.S. SarmaThe effect of blend composition and Electron Beam (EB) irradiation on the crystallization and thermal behavior of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE)/Ethylene-Propylene-Diene elastomer (EPDM) blends had been studied. Melting temperatures were found to remain unchanged upon variation of blend composition as well as irradiation dose. But the degree of crystallinity and Tc (crystallization temperature) were decreased with increase in EPDM content … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Nov 2014 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsChilling Injury in Mamey Sapote Fruit (Pouteria sapota): Biochemical and Physiological ResponsesGuillermo O. Pérez-Tello, Miguel Ángel Martínez-Téllez, Irasema Vargas-Arispuro, Gustavo A. González-AguilarProblem statement: Cold storage is needed in order to delay senescence and achieve a longer commercial life of tropical fruits like mamey sapote (Pouteria sapota), therefore, the physiological and biochemical responses of this fruit to cold storage were evaluated. Approach: Samples from different storage temperature (20, 10 and 2°C) were taken at five-day intervals and Chilling Injury Index (CII), decay … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 9,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffects of Complexing Agent on Electrochemical Micro Machining of Stainless SteelChen Hui, Wang Yu-Kui, Wang Zhen-Long, Zhao Wan-ShengProblem statement: Electrochemical Machining (ECM) is a prospective technique in micro machining. The productions of work piece in ECM are precipitation of hydroxide, which will block the machining gap. To prevent the formation of hydroxide, acids were often used. To machining work piece which is not acid-resistant, acids are not suitable. Approach: This study is conducted to find the effects … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 15 Jun 2011 · 7,113 accessesView PDFCite
