Semisolid preparations for external application to skin have gained much demand, since it is easily absorbed through the skin layers. Many novel topical dosage forms have been discovered, among which organogels appears to play an important role. Organogels are thermodynamically stable, biocompatible, isotropic gel, which not only give localised effect, but also systemic effect through percutane...

We show that for any type III1 free Araki-Woods factor M = Γ(HR, Ut) ′′ associated with an orthogonal representation (Ut) of R on a separable real Hilbert space HR, the continuous core M = M⋊σ R is a semisolid II∞ factor, i.e. for any non-zero finite projection q ∈ M , the II1 factor qMq is semisolid. If the representation (Ut) is moreover assumed to be mixing, then we prove that the core M is ...

A semisolid selective-motility enrichment medium for the isolation of salmonellae from fecal specimens was developed which was based on Rappaport enrichment broth. During a 7-year period more than 30,000 stool samples were tested. The medium showed a high specificity (95.1%) and sensitivity (80.3%) when compared with MacConkey agar, SS agar, and brilliant green agar (after Selenite-F Enrichment...

Semisolid state processing is a methodology that transforms dendritic as-cast microstructure into globular non-dendritic with optimized mechanical properties. Rheocasting process involves mechanically stirring metals in semisolid and its benefits are associated parameters. In order to evaluate time effects, magnesium alloy MRI 230D (Mg–Al6.45–Ca2.25–Mn0.27–Sr0.25–Sn0.84) was melted cooled down ...

Studies on the rheoforming of high melting point alloys are scarce due to difficulties in preparing semisolid slurries. This work applied a novel enclosed cooling slope channel (ECSC) prepare slurry and squeeze cast CuSn10P1 (weight percent) alloy. The microstructure phase formation slurry, properties liquid casting, rheo-squeeze casting with or without isothermal treatment were investigated th...
