This article is focused on the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride as a local anaesthetic drug. A potentiometric method based on modified screen-printed and modified carbon paste ion-selective electrodes was described for the determination of lidocaine hydrochloride in different pharmaceutical preparations. It was based on potentiometric titration of lidocaine hydrochloride using modified ...

Reconstruction the spectral data of color samples using conventional color devices such as a digital camera or scanner is always of interest. Nowadays, multispectral imaging has introduced a feasible method to estimate the spectral reflectance of the images utilizing more than three-channel imaging. The goal of this study is to spectrally characterize a color scanner using a set of conventional...

In order to combat the low regenerative capabilities of ligaments full ‘bone to bone’ replacements are required, which will integrate with bone while providing a smooth transition to the replacement soft tissue (tissues surrounding organs in the body, not being bone). This study investigated the use of 3D powder printing technology to form calcium phosphate brackets, previously used for forming...

This paper describes the use of a modified x,y-plotter to generate hydrophilic channels by printing a solution of hydrophobic polymer (pol(dimethylsiloxane; PDMS) dissolved in hexanes onto filter paper. The PDMS penetrates the depth of the paper and forms a hydrophobic wall that aqueous solutions cannot cross. The minimum size of printed features is approximately 1 mm; this resolution is adequa...

The development of 3D Printing technologies introduced new possibilities regarding multi-material part production. Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is one those suitable for printing. Usually, parts are manufactured from different blends the same material, also known as multi-colour printing, or materials with good chemical compatibility. Conventionally, a simple face-to-face bond interface bet...
