A large amount of the water diverted for irrigated agriculture seeps from earthen canals during its conveyance to fields. Besides a shortfall in availability, variety environmental and economic damages are caused by canal seepage . Polymer sealants provide an economical alternative permanent liners reducing temporarily. Field studies polymer sealant linear anionic polyacrylamide (LAPAM) conduct...

A grand challenge in materials chemistry is the synthesis of macromolecules and polymers with precise shapes and architectures. In this work, we describe a hybrid synthetic strategy to produce structurally defined branched polymer architectures based on chemically modified DNA. Overall, this approach enables precise control over branch placement, grafting density, and chemical identity of side ...

Abstract Fracturing technology is the key of shale oil and gas exploitation in United States. The hydraulic fracturing lies formulation fluid, which can improve permeability layer, reduce pumping resistance, optimize production conditions, strata damage other purposes. Slick-water widely used water-based for unconventional exploitation, friction resistance. As core slickwater reducer determine ...

Electrophoretic channels are filled with a polymer matrix prior to their use in DNA separations. This process, called gel-loading, can be accomplished manually, using syringes, or can be automated through the use of small pumps or vacuum. The injection rate is constrained by the desire to minimize shear-induced degradation of the polymer molecules. Currently, the community lacks quantitative da...

conclusions our successful extraction of purified lps from e. coli isolates of uti patients’ urine samples can be an important step to understand the uti disease conditions. results the silver-stained gel demonstrated both smooth and rough type lps by showing trail-like band patterns with the presence and lacking o-antigen region, respectively. coomassie blue staining showed no band assuring th...

Abstract Chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes are usually used as additives for hydrocarbon production due to its simplicity and relatively reasonable additional costs. Polymer flooding uses polymer solutions increase by decreasing the water/oil mobility ratio increasing viscosity of displacing water. The commonly synthetic water-soluble in EOR application is partially hydrolyzed poly...

Polyacrylamide (PAM) is a water-soluble polymer with strong cohesiveness and water absorption capacity, it has been widely used to modify soil structural stability. However, little information available on the impact of PAM application aggregate-breaking process purple soils in hilly areas southwestern China. Therefore, current study aimed examine influence aggregate stability terms different b...

Analysis of poly(ADP-ribose) synthesized in cellular lysates or in isolated nuclei on 100-cm-long thin gels of 20% polyacrylamide, 2.5 M urea permits determination of the exact size of poly(ADP-ribose) molecules using labeled oligonucleotides as molecular weight markers. The size and concentration of poly(ADP-ribose) molecules increase at time intervals during its synthesis. Differences in the ...

The graft copolymer of locust bean gum (LBG) and acrylamide has been synthesized by microwave assisted method using potassium persulphate (KPS) as an initiator in aqueous medium. Different reaction parameters such as time, initiator concentration, monomer concentration, polymer concentration, and microwave power were studied to get maximum graft copolymer. The grafted copolymer was characterize...

Sequence-induced anomalous migration of double-stranded (ds) DNA in native gel electrophoresis is a well known phenomenon. The retardation of migration is more obvious in polyacrylamide compared with agarose gels, and is greatly affected by the concentration of the gel and the temperature. This anomalous migration results in a difference between calculated and actual sizes of the affected DNA f...
