this is a comprehensive review of the recent progresses made in the field of zeolite membranes. it describes zeolitic materials and methods of membrane fabrication, followed by a summary of applications for gas separation, pervaporation and separation of liquid mixtures. special attention is called to polymer mixed matrix membranes (mmms) and membranes based on metal organic frame works (mofs)....

Currently, the cause of uveopathies is unknown, there no radical treatment. The final these diseases blindness from glaucoma. author developed a hypothesis etiopathogenesis uveopathies, according to which trigger weakness accommodation caused by genetically determined excessively small distance between ciliary body and equator lens. following approaches solving problem are proposed: a). formati...

conclusions intra-ophthalmic artery melphalan is an effective treatment for advanced cases of retinoblastoma, with a reasonable level of success. in the short follow up period of this study, it appears that the primary cases showed better results in the control of tumor. background the management of retinoblastoma remains a challenge to the multidisciplinary team, particularly as treatment affe...

BACKGROUND The management of retinoblastoma remains a challenge to the multidisciplinary team, particularly as treatment affects not only visual outcomes, but also ocular retention and morbidity. Management of retinoblastoma has evolved over the past two decades. OBJECTIVES To report the result of intra-ophthalmic artery chemotherapy (IAC) for the treatment of refractory and advanced retinobl...

Pars planitis is an idiopathic chronic intermediate uveitis which predominantly affects children and adolescents, and accounts for 5-26.7% of pediatric uveitis. Although an autoimmune process with a genetic predisposition has been suggested, its etiology still remains unknown. The most common presenting symptoms are floaters and blurred vision. Diffuse vitreous cells, haze, snowballs and snowba...

in this study the catalytic dehydrogenation of ethylbenzene to styrene was investigated in a simulated tubular sodalite membrane reactor. the high quality microporous sodalite membrane was synthesized by direct hydrothermal method and characterized by single gas permeation measurements. the performance of the prepared membrane showed high potential for application in a dehydrogenation membrane ...

membrane technology is used to separate water or solvents from salts or pollutants. this technique could be used for water treatment. for using of polyether sulfone (pes) hollow fiber membranes in water treatment processes, the pes hollow fiber membranes were prepared by dry-wet spinning method and heated in an oven at: 120°c, 150°c and 180°c. the effect of heating on performance of membranes w...

large unilamellar liposomes and multilamellar vesicles consisting of dmpc interacted with cationic phosphorus-containing dendrimers cpds g3 and g4. dsc and ζ -potential measurements have shown that liposomal-dendrimeric molecular recognition occurs due to the interaction between the complementary surface groups. calorimetric studies indicate that the enthalpy of the transition of the lipids tha...

the reported work is on the preparation and characterization of polyvinyl alcohol -g- polyacrylic acid (pva-g-paa)/ polybenzimidazole sulfone (pbis) cation exchange membrane used for the electro dialysis of sodium chloride solution. the polymer syrup has been prepared using the grafting method with the help of polyvinyl alcohol and polyacrylic acid in the presence of water solvent. the polymer ...
