The treatment of electroplating industrial effluent by coconut husk was carried out by analyzing the physico-chemical parameters of the effluent such as pH, salinity, calcium, magnesium, phosphates, nitrates, BOD3 30C̊ and total solids using standard methods. The efficiency of coconut husk was tested by using it in different quantities such as 25, 50, 75 and 100 grams for five days. As a result,...

BACKGROUND Many techniques have been reported for the correction of inverted nipples. However, the conventional methods may be insufficient, especially for moderate to severe inversions. We propose a modification of Elsahy's method and report satisfactory results. METHODS A single-institutional retrospective review was performed for all patients who received the modified operation. Patient ch...

A major risk of extended space travel is the combined effects of weightlessness and radiation exposure on the immune system. In this study, we used the hindlimb suspension model of microgravity that includes the other space stressors, situational and confinement stress and alterations in food intake, and solar particle event (SPE)-like radiation to measure the combined effects on the ability to...

In recent years transdifferentiation technology has enabled direct conversion of human fibroblasts to become a valuable, abundant and accessible cell source for patient-specific induced cell generation in biomedical research. The majority of transdifferentiation approaches rely upon viral gene delivery which due to random integration with the host genome can cause genome instability and tumorig...

Using both instantaneous snapshots and simulation generated scattering data, the steady-state ̄ ow behaviour of a concentrated aggregated colloidal suspension is analysed in terms of its structure factor S(k). We ® nd that in the shear thinning regime, unlike model hard sphere results, S(k) exhibits pre-peaks at small k, which we interpret as indicative of intermediate range order in the shear i...

to evaluate the physical and chemical stability of a suspension of mycophenolate mofetil (mmf) prepared in the hospital from commercially available mmf capsules and tablets. extemporaneous pharmacy was used as a feasible method in this experimental study to prepare suspension form of mmf. suspension formulations were prepared from both tablets and capsules forms of mmf. thereafter the stability...

background & aim: investigation of suspension cell culture and callus production in catharanthus roseus. catharanthus roseus is an herbaceous perennial plant belongs to the family apocynaceae. c. roseus is important as commercial medicinal plant because of its alkaloidal content. whole plant contains about 130 alkaloids those are classified as vinca alkaloids. vincristine and vinblastine; t...

Erythropoiet ic cells from early chick embryos have been successfully ma in ta ined in vitro bo th in tissue culture (Murray, 1932; Settle, 1954; O'Brien, 1960; Spra t t and Haas, 1960 a and b; Hell, 1964; Levere and Granick, 1967; Wilt , 1967; Hagopian and Ingram, 1971; and Wenk, 1971) as well as in suspension culture (Hagopian et al., 1972). In all cases potent ia l erythropoiet ic cells will...

We have studied the F-actin network in cycling suspension culture cells of carrot (Daucus carota L.) using rhodaminyl lysine phallotoxin (RLP). In addition to conventional fixation with formaldehyde, we have used two different nonfixation methods before adding RLP: extracting cells in a stabilizing buffer; inducing transient pores in the plasma membrane with pulses of direct current (electropor...

This paper is primarily studying the behaver of the twin-accumulator suspension over the conventional passive system focusing on ride quality behavior and road holding. Therefore, a dynamic modeling of passive and twin-accumulator suspension for a quarter model is constructed. MATLAB Simulink environment is used to develop the suspension models. The simulation is applied with two different road...
