Microsponge containing ketotifen drug with three different proportions of ethyl cellulose and drug were obtained successfully using quasi-emulsion solvent diffusion method. These formulations were studied for particle size and physical characterization. These microsponges enriched gel formulation were prepared by using 2 and 3 % w/w of SCMC and studied for viscosity, pH, gel strength, spreadabi...

The purpose of the present investigation was to prepare an intranasal in situ gel with increased nasal residence time in order to improve bioavailability of metoprolol tartrate. The in situ gel systems containing carbopol, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose K4M and K15M in different concentrations were prepared. The samples were characterized for viscosity, rheological behavior, gelation behavior, g...

For the large pores and cracks of reservoirs with low temperatures, high salinity, and low permeability, a new type of high strength gel ABP system is developed in this paper. The defects of conventional gels such as weak gel strength, no gelling, and easy dehydration are overcome under the conditions of low temperature and high salinity. The temperature and salt resistance, plugging characteri...

Understanding the formation of Alkali-silica reaction gel (ASR gel) and its behavior in cement pore network solutions is key to mitigate one main causes strength retrogression concrete. We herein propose a scenario explain how ASR pores can damage paste structure that supported by state-of-the-art atomistic simulations. show an at atomic scale drying or calcification affects strength. Moreover,...

Aim: This study was conducted to throw light on the effect of papain –based gel (Papacarié) on microleakage and microshear bond strength of two esthetic restorative materials ; glass ionomer restoration (Fuji IX GP) and light cured hybrid composite resin (Valux Plus, 3M ESPE). Methods: Microleakage test: thirty primary molars with carious occlusal surfaces were randomly assigned into three grou...

Cross linking of high density polyethylene (HDPE) was first performed via high energy10 Mev electron beam (EB) irradiation. HDPE was also cross linked withDicumyle peroxide (DCP).The gel content of samples was determined by solvent extraction.Degree of cross linking was evaluated by hot set apparatus; as well .In order to clarify the effectof nature of cross linking, correlation of electrical p...

High pressure effects on the strength (stress) and elasticity/ deformability (strain) of surimi and turkey breast meat gels containing microbial transglutaminase (TGase) were evaluated. Pressurization of muscle proteins at 4oC prior to incubation at 25°C or 40°C (setting) increased gel strength 2–3 fold in uncooked surimi gels, but not in uncooked turkey gels. However, pressurization at 40°C or...

background: addition of disinfectant to irreversible hydrocolloid impression materials can eliminate the disinfection step to avoid dimensional changes associated with it. the aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of various disinfectant mixing liquids on the properties of commercially available irreversible hydrocolloid impression materials. materials and methods: four commercial...
