Simulating Inflammation in a Wound Microenvironment Using a Dermal Wound‐on‐a‐Chip Model

A Mechanochemical Model for Normal and Abnormal Dermal Wound Repair

Promoting Wound Healing Using Low Molecular Weight Fucoidan in a Full-Thickness Dermal Excision Rat Model

Low molecular weight fucoidan (LMF) has been reported to possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activities. Thus, we examined the effects of LMF extracted from Undaria pinnatifida on dermal wounds. Five round dermal wounds were created on the dorsal back of rats, and they were then treated topically with distilled water (DW), Madecasol Care™ (MC) or LMF at 200, 100 and 50 mg/mL, twice a day ...

A Finite Element Model for Simulating Flow around a Well with Helically Symmetric Perforations

In a perforated well, fluids enter the wellbore through array of perforation tunnels. These perforations are typically distributed in a helical pattern around the wellbore. Available numerical models to simulate production flow into cased-and-perforated vertical wells have complicated boundary conditions or suffer from high computational costs. This paper presents a simple and at the same time ...

Evaluation of the Wound Healing Activity of a Traditional Compound Herbal Product Using Rat Excision Wound Model

Iranian Traditional Medicine (ITM) manuscripts contain prescriptions that have long been used for healing of wounds. The present study evaluates the healing effect of a poly herbal paste (PHP), retrieved from ITM sources, containing Aloe vera, Commiphora myrrha and Boswellia carteri using rat excision wound model. Excision wounds were induced in six groups consisting of six rats each. Group 1 r...

Measuring and Simulating 2,4-D Residues in Silty Clay Soil Profile Under Two Water Regimes Using a LEACHP Model

The extensive use of pesticides in agriculture is compromising soil and water quality. One major concern is protecting water resources from contamination. The main objective of this research was measuring 2,4- D in a silty clay soil and simulating temporal transportation of this herbicide in soil using a LEACHP model, in a corn root zone field. 2,4- D was applied at 3.5 kg a.i./ha, followed by ...
