There has been much debate and controversy about the routine use of antibiotic-impregnated bone cement in primary total joint arthroplasty. The purpose of this study was to undertake a meta-analysis to determine whether the use of antibiotic-impregnated bone cement would reduce the incidence of infection after primary total joint arthroplasty. Of 313 citations identified for screening, 6 trials...

The use of antibiotic-impregnated cement in revision of total hip arthroplasty procedures is widespread, and a substantial body of evidence demonstrates its efficacy in infection prevention and treatment. However, it is not clear that it is necessary or desirable as a routine means of prophylaxis in primary total joint arthroplasty. In the management of infected implant sites, antibiotic-impreg...

A high performance thin layer chromatography system (HPTLC) for the separation of vitamin B2 and B12 has been developed. The separation was successfully using a solvent system of methanol, water, ammonia 7.3.1 (V/V) as mobile phase on HPTLC plates impregnated with boric acid. The effect of other mobile phases on the separation of vitamins was also examined. The method is based on different beha...

This research work investigates the application of KOH impregnated jackfruit leaf powder to remove Nickel from wastewater. The removal characteristics of Nickel from wastewater was investigated under various operating variables like contact time, adsorbent dosage, initial metal concentration, solution pH, temperature and stirring speed. The results showed that the KOH impregnated jackfruit leaf...

This research work investigates the efficiency of H3PO4and KOH impregnated jackfruit leaf powder based carbon as adsorbent to remove Ni from wastewater. The removal characteristics of Nickel using both the adsorbents were investigated under various operating variables like contact time, adsorbent dosage, initial metal concentration, solution pH, temperature and stirring speed. The results showe...

By light microscopic observation of the mouse brain impregnated by the Holmes' method, intensely stained cytoplasmic inclusion bodies were demonstrated in the nerve cells of the hypothalamus, locus coeruleus and other autonomic regions in addition to the limbic system and some circumventricular organs. Electron microscope observation of ultrathin sections made from vibratome sections impregnate...

This study discusses the effect of addition resin fibers (Dicranopteris linearis) on characteristics concrete. The purpose to horns, anti-termite, not easily broken and resistant humid air is a plant that grows lot in Pagar Alam City area. Therefore, researchers decided examine adding rod this concrete an experimental method tested, namely physical material test, slump compressive flexural stre...

Abstract The delignification of birch chips during kraft pulping was investigated, targeting both the impregnation and cooking steps. Wood were impregnated using white liquor, liquor + NaCl, water or NaCl aqueous solution. Then, cooked in batch autoclaves applying same constant composition conditions for all samples. Pulp two fractions black (bulk centrifuged representing inside wood fibers) co...

Ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) have been designed and developed for extreme operating environments. The aim of the present study is to look a rapid densification process providing high level material performance. fibrous preform was made Hi-Nicalon S fibers woven in 3D interlock weave. composed Si2N2O prepared inside CMCs by reacting mixture Si SiO2 under nitrogen pressure (1 3 MPa). Silica e...
