We present mesoscale numerical simulations of Rayleigh-B\'enard (RB) convection in a two-dimensional model emulsion. The systems under study are constituted finite-size droplets, whose concentration Phi_0 is systematically varied from small (Newtonian emulsions) to large values (non-Newtonian emulsions). focus on the characterisation heat transfer properties close transition conductive convecti...

the aim of this study was to determine the occurrence of enterotoxigenic and enteroaggregative escherichia coli strains and antibiotic resistance of the isolates in raw milk and unpasteurized cheese. out of 200 samples of raw milk and 50 samples of unpasteurized cheeses, 96 and 24 strains of e. coli were isolated, respectively. polymerase chain reaction (pcr) was used to detect the genes encodi...

The goal of this in vitro study was to examine the effects of pre-acidification and pre-akalinization on the lipid emulsion-mediated reversal of toxic dose levobupivacaine-induced vasodilation in isolated rat aorta. Isolated aortic rings with and without the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor N(ω)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) were exposed to four types of Krebs solution (pH 7.0, 7.2, 7.4...

BACKGROUND Aerosolized delivery of antibiotics is hindered by poor penetration within distal and plugged airways. Antibacterial perfluorocarbon ventilation (APV) is a proposed solution in which the lungs are partially or totally filled with perfluorocarbon (PFC) containing emulsified antibiotics. The purpose of this study was to evaluate emulsion stability and rheological, antibacterial, and ph...

the role of enterotoxigenic e.coli as a causative agent in diarrheal disease was studied among 100 cases of infant and children 0-2 years of age. routine bacteriological methods were used for identification enteropathogenic e.coli, salmonella, shigella and vibrio cholera. the ability of e.coli strains to produce toxin was assayed in animal models (rebbit-ileal loop and suckling mice) and in tis...

In many studies for chemoembolization of hepatocellular carcinoma, the Lipiodol emulsion preparation protocols, especially the mixing steps, were unclear or even unrevealed at all. However, doxorubicin (DOX) release may depend on the composition and volume ratio (Lipiodol to DOX solution) of a Lipiodol emulsion. Therefore, we conducted a preclinical study to compare in-vitro drug release and in...

BACKGROUND Emulsions stabilized by colloidal particles are known as Pickering emulsions. To date, soft microgel particles as well as inorganic and organic particles have been utilized as Pickering emulsifiers. Although cyclodextrin (CD) works as an attractive emulsion stabilizer through the formation of a CD-oil complex at the oil-water interface, a high concentration of CD is normally required...

New non aqueous based microemulsion allows the delivery of storage sensitive personal care actives in conventional cream, lotion and gel. Griseofulvin is an antifungal antibiotic drug micro emulsion system as the basic formulation for investigation. The quantity of griseofulvin and the accumulation of anhydrous micro emulsions at various temperatures were analyzed with poor aqueous solubility. ...

Beverage emulsions are systems that are composed of two liquids including oil and water which are prepared by homogenizing oil phase in an acidic aqueous phase. They must be stable in both concentrated and diluted form for a period of 6-12 months upon standing at room temperature. Two immiscible phases contained systems are thermodynamically unstable. In other words, they are vulnerable to brea...
