Several substances/food baits and admixtures thereof were tested in a perspex trap, treated with insecticide [email protected] mg/cm2. Bioefficacy for housefly trapping was evaluated. Combination of ingredients was found to be more effective than individual ingredients. A combination of some easily available and cheap ingredients were employed for field trials. The admixtures of milk powder, dog b...

BACKGROUND Parenteral nutrition (PN) is a high-alert medication available for patient care within a complex clinical process. Beyond application of best practice recommendations to guide safe use and optimize clinical outcome, several issues are better addressed through evidence-based policies, procedures, and practices. This document provides evidence-based guidance for clinical practices invo...

The viscosity and electrical conductivity as structure-sensitive transport properties of the liquid metals and alloys are important for modeling of the melting and solidification processes. The viscosity and electrical conductivity data provide additional information about the influence of impurities on the structure and physicochemical properties of the liquid metal matrix, which is useful for...

Yucatan hairless micropig (YHMP) skin has been shown to have histology and physiologic properties similar to human skin. To assess the relationship between the permeability of corticosteroid ointments and five types of commonly used admixtures of corticosteroid through hairless mice (HM) or YHMP skin and the clinical effects in humans, we conduct by in vitro experiments using HM and YHMP skin. ...

INTRODUCTION Modern home parenteral nutrition (HPN) requires the preparation of tailored admixtures. The physicians' demands for their composition are often at the variance with pharmaceutical principles, which causes the necessity of either the preparation of ex tempore admixtures or stability testing ensuring long shelf life. Both approaches are not cost-effective. The aim of the study was to...

Topic models, such as Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA), posit that documents are drawn from admixtures of distributions over words, known as topics. The inference problem of recovering topics from such a collection of documents drawn from admixtures, is NP-hard. Making a strong assumption called separability, [4] gave the first provable algorithm for inference. For the widely used LDA model, [...

PURPOSE The contamination rates associated with the preparation of medium-risk i.v. admixtures in a traditional practice site and in a class 1000 cleanroom were compared. METHODS Simulated product media fills served as the samples. Each investigator, a pharmacist and a pharmacy technician, prepared 500 vials and 500 small-volume parenteral (SVP) bags in five separate runs at a traditional pra...

The available literature identifies that the addition of mineral admixture as partial replacement of cement improves the microstructure of the concrete (i.e., porosity and pore size distribution) as well as increasing the mechanical characteristics such as drying shrinkage and creep, compressive strength, tensile strength, flexural strength, and modulus of elasticity; however, no single documen...
