Adsorption Studies in a Synthetic Rubber Latex-ovalbumin System
نویسندگان
چکیده
1. Adsorption of ovalbumin on the latex surface was in excess of the quantity required to produce coverage of the surface over most of the protein concentrations range which was investigated. 2. "S" shaped isothermals which probably indicated multilayer adsorption were obtained. 3. The quantity of ovalbumin required to produce a constant surface charge density on the latex particle surface was a function of the pH, and a theory of active centers on the latex particles has been suggested. 4. A shift in the isoelectric point from that of native ovalbumin has been observed for the protein when adsorbed on a synthetic latex.

Occupational contact urticaria caused by polyvinylchloride gloves.
Allergy to natural rubber latex (NRL) gloves in healthcare workers is well recognized, and usually presents as immunological contact urticaria and sometimes anaphylaxis. Latex gloves can also cause allergic contact dermatitis, mostly because of rubber accelerators. As latex sensitivity is well known in healthcare settings, synthetic latex-free gloves are widely used. The most popular latexfree ...

Polymers not only possess repairing functions concerning the concrete structures, but also due to their properties are used in making different types of polymer cements and improving the matrix structure of cement materials, enhancing the viscosity, mechanical, and stability power of concretes. Today, there is limited knowledge on the use of SBR in structural light aggregate concrete. In the pr...
متن کاملProposed Method for Classifying Natural Rubber for Use in Pressure Sensitive Adhesive Tapes
Natural rubber is used as an important raw material by the pressure sensitive adhesives industry. However, the normal quality variation is relatively high compared to synthetic polymer alternatives. This paper discusses measurements of the magnitude and nature of this natural rubber quality variation using a special dynamic mechanical rheological tester. Also the paper discusses some of the cau...
