modified cellulose acetate (ca) membranes were prepared by dissolving the polymers in a mixture of acetone (ac) and n, n dimethylacetamide (dmac) (70:30) solvent and deionized (di) water was used in the coagulation bath. the introduction of polyethylene glycol (peg) additive and tio2 nanoparticles (nps) into the casting solution has changed the structures of the resulting membranes during the p...

Background: Persian Medicine is one of the oldest and richest complementary and alternative options in the field of medicine and has a comprehensive medical system. Henna oil is recommended in Persian Medicine for the treatment of numerous women’s diseases such as cervicitis. To date, henna has been used for many medical purposes, including astringent, bleeding, cardioinhibitory, hypotension, a...

Title: Polyethylene glycol vs. sodium phosphate for bowel preparation: A treatment arm meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials

Objective(s): The wide scale use of Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) in the consumer market world makes human beings more prone to the exposure to ZnO nanoparticles and its adverse effects. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to assess renal toxicity potential of ZnO and Polyethylene glycol Coated ZnO Nanoparticles in rat.Materials and Methods: Co-precipitation chemical method was used...

A new crystal form of yeast triose phosphate isomerase has been grown from solutions of the enzyme in polyethylene glycol (PEG) of average molecular weight 4000. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21, with a = 61.3 A, b = 98.4 A, c = 49.7 A, /3 = 90.9”. There is one dimeric molecule per asymmetric unit. Data are observable to at least 1.3A resolution. Crystallization can be achieved afte...

Ligand attachment to polyethylene glycol (PEG) grafted, long circulating liposomes at the polymer terminus is of interest for targeting but the effect of positively charged groups is unknown. Amino-polyethylene glycol-phosphatidylethanolamine (AminoPEG-PE), prepared in four steps from alpha-amino-omega-hydroxy-PEG, was tested for influence on liposome interactions in vivo: blood circulation and...

We demonstrate polyethylene-glycol-coated single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as contrast agents for both photothermal optical coherence tomography (OCT) and magnetic-resonance imaging (MRI). Photothermal OCT was accomplished with a spectral domain OCT system with an amplitude-modulated 750 nm pump beam using 10 mW of power, and T(2) MRI was achieved with a 4.7 T animal system. Photothermal O...
