In this study, asphaltene deposition from crude oil has experimentally and theoretically been studied using a test loop and an accurate temperature monitoring during a laminar flow. The effects of oil velocity and surface temperature on the thickness of asphaltene deposition were investigated. The results show that asphaltene deposition thickness increases by increasing surface temperature. As ...

conclusions our successful extraction of purified lps from e. coli isolates of uti patients’ urine samples can be an important step to understand the uti disease conditions. results the silver-stained gel demonstrated both smooth and rough type lps by showing trail-like band patterns with the presence and lacking o-antigen region, respectively. coomassie blue staining showed no band assuring th...

This paper is concerned with asphaltene deposition in fluid flowing through pipelines. Brownian diffusion and drag, gravitational, thermophoresis, buoyancy, and shear removal are considered as possible mechanisms in the asphaltene deposition process. The thermo-physical properties of the fluid were obtained from Iranian oil fields. A model was used in the pipeline deposition modeling to predict...

lactoferrin (lf) has antimicrobial properties against bacteria, fungi and several viruses including herpes virus, hiv and hepatitis c virus. the aim of this study was to detect lf in pmns and plasma of the patients suffering from hepatitis c and the healthy persons. the sonicated solutions of pmns of two groups were evaluated by sds-page (10%), isoelectric focusing (30%) and dot blotting .the l...
