Tissue engineering techniques are central for the development of biomedical scaffolds, which primarily employed in biofabrication various artificial human tissue and organ models. Bioprinting is a new technique creating constructs that can sustain cell proliferation. The printing proceeds together with biomaterials to be printed, why studying printability these specific must explored. An approp...

rectangular waveguide (wr) is one of the earliest types of transmission lines. rectangular waveguide can be produced by hot extrusion process. in this paper, the hot extrusion process of cuzn5 rectangular waveguide was investigated by finite element method (fem). in addition, genetic algorithm method (ga) was used to optimize the die geometry and process conditions to achieve the lowest magnitu...

The study was carried out, to explore the potentiality of extrusion technology for elimination of antinutritional components of cereal brans. Extrusion variables were moisture content (14, 17 and 20 %) and temperatures (115 °C, 140 °C, 165 °C). Phytic acid, polyphenols, oxalates, trypsin inhibitor, bulk density and color of brans after extrusion were analyzed. All four raw bran samples had high...

While preparing the composite preform in the powder metallurgy Lab, the various defects due to porosity, open crack and residual stresses are possible. This may lead to poor life and strength of materials. It is difficult to predict the defects in the form of pores physically in the powder metallurgy Lab. To simplify this kind of problem, the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images are genera...

Anion exchange contributes significantly to intestinal Cl(-) absorption in marine teleost fish and is thus vital for successful osmoregulation. This anion exchange process leads to high luminal HCO(3)(-) concentrations (up to approximately 100 mmol l(-1)) and high pH and results in the formation of CaCO(3) precipitates in the intestinal lumen. Recent advances in our understanding of the transpo...

Co-extrasion involves extrasion of multiple layers at the same time. Functionally graded materials comprising various layers with different properties can be produced through co-extrusion. Rheological control is vital for successful co-extrusion of layered cement-based materials. The paste flow in the barrel and the die land in a ram extruder should be plug-like, while the paste should be shear...

PURPOSE To evaluate the characteristics of patients with anophthalmic cavity who developed sphere extrusion. METHODS A retrospective observational study was done evaluating 37 patients with anophthalmic cavity and sphere extrusion at the "Faculdade de Medicina de Botucatu-UNESP". RESULTS Extrusion was observed in enucleated and eviscerated cavities. The majority of the patients had the eye ...

Membrane extrusion was investigated for predicting the stability of soya phosphatidylcholine liposomes and surfactosomes (Tween 80-enriched liposomes) to nebulization. Formulations were prepared with or without cholesterol, and salbutamol sulfate (SBS) or beclometasone dipropionate (BDP) were incorporated as model hydrophilic or hydrophobic drugs respectively. Formulations were extruded through...

Our aim was to characterize the magnetic resonance (MR) imaging features of canine disc extrusion accompanied by epidural hemorrhage or inflammation. We correlated the imaging characteristics of this type of disc extrusion in 46 dogs and compared these features with clinical signs and pathologic findings. Data from 50 control dogs with MR imaging features of a disc extrusion with no associated ...
