asymmetrically mixed matrix matrimid-mil-53 membranes with silicone cover layer were fabricated. for better understanding of membrane fabrication process, three main parameters of fabrication, matrimid concentration, silicone concentration and weight percentage of metal organic framework (mil-53) particles, were optimized by an experimental design method. cross-section sem images were used to s...

conclusions the results indicate that the rates of esbls are high in urine e. coli and k. pneumoniae isolates from tehran hospitals. also this study indicates that the urine isolates from male patients are significantly more resistant than the female isolates. materials and methods a total of 190 e. coli and k. pneumoniae isolates were collected from patients’ urine samples in hospitals from te...

a module $m$ is called $emph{h}$-cofinitely supplemented if for every cofinite submodule $e$ (i.e. $m/e$ is finitely generated) of $m$ there exists a direct summand $d$ of $m$ such that $m = e + x$ holds if and only if $m = d + x$, for every submodule $x$ of $m$. in this paper we study factors, direct summands and direct sums of $emph{h}$-cofinitely supplemented modules. let $m$ be an $emph{h}$...

objective(s):one of the major challenges in the field of vaccine design is choosing immunogenic antigens which can induce a proper immune response against complex targets like malignant cells or recondite diseases caused by protozoan parasites such as leishmaniasis. the aim of this study was to find a way to construct artificial liposome-based cells containing fragments of target’s cell membran...

abstract: in this paper, the results of experimental and numerical simulation of low velocity impact process have been carried out to investigate energy absorption of composite sandwich panels with 3d woven fabrics of glass fibers and epoxy resin. for this purpose, diagrams of force-displacement of the quasi-static and quasi-dynamic impact tests were studied. for the finite element simulation, ...

a simple, clean, and environmentally benign three-component process for the synthesis of 2-amino-4hchromenes using [mim]cl, as an efficient catalyst under solvent-free conditions are described. a wide range of aromatic aldehydes easily undergoes condensations with 1-naphthol and malononitrile under solvent-free conditions to afford the desired products of good purity in excellent yields. taking...

background: discriminating latent tuberculosis infection (ltbi) from active tbi may be challenging. the objective of this study was to produce the recombinant l-alanine dehydrogenase (aladh) antigen and evaluate individuals with ltbi, those with active tbi, and uninfected individuals by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (elispot) in order to distinguish ltbi from active tbi. methods: this explorat...
