morphology of surface oxide film formed during pouring of molten magnesium alloy has been investigated. due to surface turbulence during casting, the oxide film necessarily makes folded cause in a dry surface to dry surface mode creating a double oxide film with the volume of air that can be encapsulated between folds of the film and this led to make gas bubbles or shrinkage cavities form. thes...

Controlling degradation of magnesium or its alloys in physiological saline solutions is essential for their potential applications in clinically viable implants. Rapid degradation of magnesium-based materials reduces the mechanical properties of implants prematurely and severely increases alkalinity of the local environment. Therefore, the objective of this study is to investigate the effects o...

Dietary magnesium deficiency as well as excess sucrose has been shown to be associated with the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Nitric oxide (NO) and induction of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) are two important markers of nitrosative stress. The present study was planned to investigate the effect of low magnesium diet on magnesium status and nitric oxide production in sucrose fed rat...

Templated electrodeposition was used to synthesize silver-zinc oxide nanowires and iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanotubes in polycarbonate track etched (PCTE) membranes. Metal/oxide segmented nanowires were made to produce hydrogen gas from a water/methanol mixture under ultraviolet irradiation. It was observed that gas production increased during irradiation. Iron oxide nanotubes were synthesized via a ...

The chromatographic behavior of some minor components of natural lipids was studied using layers of magnesium oxide and of commercial adsorbents containing magnesium oxide. The lipids investigated included wax esters, cholesteryl esters, diester waxes, and esters, ethers and ether-esters of ethanediol and glycerol. Pronounced differences were found in the patterns of separation of certain lipid...

Novel nitrogen-doped carbon hybrid materials consisting of multiwalled nanotubes and porous graphitic layers have been produced by chemical vapor deposition over magnesium-oxide-supported metal catalysts. CN x nanotubes were grown on Co/Mo, Ni/Mo, or Fe/Mo alloy nanoparticles, and MgO grains served as a template for the porous carbon. The simultaneous formation of morphologically different carb...

in this research, nano materials with tubular structures are added to sae 20w50 engine oil to study the rate of their effects on the properties of engine oil. multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) and vanadium oxide nanotubes (vonts) has been used as two different additive materials, one of them is carbonic and the other is metallic oxides and their effect on  different parameters containing v...

Previously we described the antinociceptive effect of magnesium sulfate and dizocilpine (MK-801) in the visceral and somatic rat models of pain. In the somatic model of pain, we established the influence of selective inhibitors of neuronal and inducible nitric oxide synthase on the antihyperalgesic effects of magnesium sulfate and dizocilpine. Therefore, the objective of the present study was t...
