Thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) and thermal imidization were used to prepare PI-based monoliths in sequence. The hybridized PI (PI-co-POSS) exhibit potential liquid diode application achieve oil–water separation.

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of intramuscular injection of medetomidine on intra-renal arteriesresistive and pulsatility indices by duplex Doppler ultrasonographyin clinically normal adult domestic shorthair cats. For this purpose, twenty-six neutered adult healthy domestic shorthair cats (13 females and 13 males) were evaluated. B-mode, color Doppler and pulsed wave Doppl...

We construct a series of inclusions of hyperfinite subfactors Pi in the centralizer R of Powers’ IIIt factor, Pi+1 ⊂ Pi ⊂ R. It is proven that: ∀i ∈ N, P ′ i ∩R = C, [Pi : Pi+1] ≥ λ = (1 + t) t Via an outer action of Z2 on R, we also construct an inclusion of hyperfinite II1 factors, M3 ⊂ M1 with the index equal to λ, such that the relative commutant M1 ∩M ′ 3 is four dimensional.

In most states, the phosphorus (P) index (PI) is the adopted strategy for assessing a field's vulnerability to P loss; however, many state PIs have not been rigorously evaluated against measured P loss data to determine how well the PI assigns P loss risk-a major reason being the lack of field data available for such an analysis. Given the lack of P loss data available for PI evaluation, our go...

BACKGROUND Late complications after Fontan procedure may be due to the absence of pump and pulsatile pulmonary blood flow in this type of palliation. Our aim was to quantify the degree of pulsation by echocardiographic method in patients with extracardiac total cavopulmonary connection (ECTCPC) in comparison with biventricular circulation and few cases of pulsatile Fontan. METHODS In a case s...

The homeostasis of Pi in marine teleosts is maintained by renal Pi secretion as well as by Pi reabsorption. A Na/Pi co-transport system belonging to the NaPi-II protein family is instrumental in tightly controlled renal Pi handling in mammals and fish. We have isolated an NaPi-II related cDNA from winter flounder. It was cloned from a female gonad cDNA library and is 624 bp long. The transcript...

in this study, water samples were collected from 10 thermal and non-thermal springs of mahalat setting during four periods in 2011. the discharge rates of these springs vary from 2 l/s to 45 l/s and their temperature range from an average minimum of 18oc to maximum 47oc. spring water is high in so4-cl and this is related to gypsum dissolution. correlation coefficient, principal component analys...
