Flow velocity profiles of micro counter-current flow of aqueous and butylacetate phases in a microchannel having a width of 100 microm were measured by micro particle image velocimetry. In order to analyze the hydrodynamic characteristics of the counter-current flow, we derived a simple analytical model for the velocity profile. When flow rates of the aqueous and organic phases were 0.2 and 0.1...

Divalent metal (Mn, Co, Ni) complexes of the ligand hexamethylenetetramine (HMTA, C6H12N4) with sulfate, nitrate and fluoroborate as counter ions have been synthesized in ethanolic media. Whereas the complexes with BF4 and NO3 as counter ions have two molecules of hexamethylenetetramine, those with SO4 2as counter ion contain just one molecule of hexamethylenetetramine. The complexes have been ...

  Abstract Introduction: One-bottle light-cured adhesives systems have variable pH. In addition to ease of use, universal adhesives can be used in various restorations and different substrates. Due to the lack of studies, the purpose of this study was to compare the enamel and dentin micro-leakage of self-cure and light cure composite restorations using a universal bonding system. Materials...

this paper presents efflux time experiments performed in the absence and presence of aqueous solutions of drag reducing agents (dras) when a liquid is emptied from a large open cylindrical storage tank through an exit piping system. the drag reducing agents studied are dodecyl benzene sulfonate anionic surfactant and a mixed solution of surfactant and sodium chloride counter ion. the variables ...

in this paper, a new molecular-structure descriptor, the general sum–connectivity co–index  is considered, which generalizes the first zagreb co–index and the general sum–connectivity index of graph theory. we mainly explore the lower and upper bounds in termsof the order and size for this new invariant. additionally, the nordhaus–gaddum–type resultis also represented.

INTRODUCTION The distribution of both malaria and schistosomiasis exhibits a large geographical overlap in tropical environments, particularly in sub-Saharan Africa. This part of the world currently harbours more than 85% of the estimated global burden of these diseases. Studies showed that artemisinin derivatives used for the treatment of malaria also have an antischistosomal effect. This stud...
