Future Developments in Poultry Nutrition

Developments in poultry nutrition have generally been driven by the need to sustain genetic potential within the confines of ever evolving systems of poultry production. Over the last 50 years we have developed quite sophisticated systems for quantitating the available nutrients in both ingredients and diets and this has allowed us to provide birds with quite precise levels of nutrients require...

Lipid Self-Assemblies and Nanostructured Emulsions for Cosmetic Formulations

A majority of cosmetic products that we encounter on daily basis contain lipid constituents in solubilized or insolubilized forms. Due to their amphiphilic nature, the lipid molecules spontaneously self-assemble into a remarkable range of nanostructures when mixed with water. This review illustrates the formation and finely tunable properties of self-assembled lipid nanostructures and their hie...

Future developments in biliary stenting

Biliary stenting has evolved dramatically over the past 30 years. Advancements in stent design have led to prolonged patency and improved efficacy. However, biliary stenting is still affected by occlusion, migration, anatomical difficulties, and the need for repeat procedures. Multiple novel plastic biliary stent designs have recently been introduced with the primary goals of reduced migration ...
