The aim of this study was to characterize the swelling and floating behaviors of gastroretentive drug delivery system (GRDDS) composed of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) and to optimize HEC/NaCMC GRDDS to incorporate three model drugs with different solubilities (metformin, ciprofloxacin, and esomeprazole). Various ratios of NaCMC to HEC were formulated, ...

Hyperelliptic curves (HEC) look promising for cryptographic applications, because of their short operand size compared to other public-key schemes. The operand sizes seem well suited for small processor architectures, where memory and speed are constrained. However, the group operation has been believed to be too complex and thus, HEC have not been used in this context so far. In recent years, ...

Abstract Various hydrological models were used in different river basins to simulate the runoff on available rainfall, land use and soil property data. The HEC-HMS model is by several researchers estimate water potential of basin through rainfall-runoff modeling. In this study, a for Punpun has been developed using HEC-HMS. Daily rainfall data from years 2005 2017 development model. ArcGIS anal...

A novel crosslinked hydrogel was prepared from sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC) using ammonium persulfate as an initiator and methylenebisacrylamide as a crosslinker for drug delivery. The chemical structure of the copolymer was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, and the morphology was observed under scanning elec...

The swift fox (Vulpes velox) is a small canid currently listed as endangered in the state of Nebraska. Current and future construction of the Heartland Expressway Corridor (HEC) through the Nebraska panhandle may be a cause for concern for resident swift fox populations. Current swift fox presence along the roadway will be documented before construction continues. We surveyed for swift foxes wi...

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate HER-2 and topoisomerase II (topo II ) as candidates for predicting the activity of anthracyclines in the adjuvant treatment of breast cancer patients. Experimental Design: In this study, we evaluated HER-2 and topo II gene aberrations by fluorescence in situ hybridization in a series of 430 primary breast cancer samples. Samples came from node-p...

Endometrial cancer cell lines are critical tools to investigate the molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis using the end point cell-based assay such as proliferation, cytotoxicity, apoptosis, anoikis or migration and invasion. The proper assay optimization and performance is essential for physiologically relevant results interpretation. In this study we use label-free real-time cell analysis plat...
