A novel and facile method was developed to produce hybrid graphene oxide (GO)-polyelectrolyte (PE) capsules using erythrocyte cells as templates. The capsules are easily produced through the layer-by-layer technique using alternating polyelectrolyte layers and GO sheets. The amount of GO and therefore its coverage in the resulting capsules can be tuned by adjusting the concentration of the GO d...

the optimum dosage for field application bactimos (w.p.) was determined as 0.04g/m , when efficacy of four concentration of 0.01 , 0.02 , 0.04 and 0.08 gim2 were compared in 1 x i m2 artificial breeding sites. this dosage caused 69.8%, 55.6% and 43.6% anopheline and 83%, 47.8% and 29.7% culicine larval mortality, in 24.48% and 72 hrs post treatment, respectively. abate and fuel oil were signifi...

We propose refinement laws for the top level design elements of Real Time UML (UML-RT): classes and capsules. These laws can be used to develop concrete design models from abstract analysis models. Laws for introducing and decomposing classes and capsules are presented. Standard data refinement techniques are adapted for classes, and process refinement techniques for capsules. We also propose t...

Encapsulated healing agents is a promising solution for extending the service life of critical infrastructure, providing long-term efficiency. This research focuses on shell properties cement-based spherical macro-capsules, aiming to achieve increased survivability during mixing mortar mixtures and efficient triggering upon crack propagation. In this framework, pan coating technique was examine...

The shell dissolution properties of gelatine, gelatine/polyethylene glycol (PEG) and hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) capsules were studied as a function of temperature, dissolution medium, and after different storage conditions. In any dissolution medium with a pH below or equal to 5.8, HPMC capsule shells dissolved rapidly, and there was no difference in the time in which dissolution occu...

Membrane chromatography (MC) is gaining wider acceptance in downstream processing of biopharmaceuticals. MC offers the advantage of higher operational flow-rates and thus, provides an attractive alternative to traditionally employed packed bed chromatography. With increased commercial usage, in-depth understanding of different mechanisms within MC capsules is desirable in order to achieve optim...
