Nano-Biotechnology is coming more important in a medical application. Nanomicro-bubble could have a significant role in this field, like delivery system of drug, enzymes gene and so on. Micro-bubble is utilized as a contrast agent for ultrasound imaging and there are many commercial agents like Levovist, Sonovue, Optison, Sonazoid and so forth. Nano-bubbles can be also used for such contrast ag...

Rubio). 1 http://www.ufrgs.br/ltm. 2 In this work, NBs are defined as bubbles that are less than a micron in size (submicron bubbles), although the term ‘‘nano” is applied mostly to sizes of approximately 1–100 nm (ISO/TS 27687:2008).

In this paper, size distribution of nano-bubbles was measured by the reliable and fast method of laser diffraction technique. Nano-bubbles were produced using a nano-bubble generator designed and made based on hydrodynamic cavitation phenomenon in Venturi tubes. A Central Composite Design with Response Surface Methodology was used to conduct a five factor, five level factorial experimental desi...

BACKGROUND Cavitation is a rather common and important effect in the processes of destruction of nano- and microscale particles in natural and technological processes. A possible cavitation disintegration of polymineral nano- and microparticles, which are placed into a liquid, as a result of the interaction of the particles with collapsed cavitation bubbles is considered. The emphasis is put on...

INTRODUCTION We investigated whether adding ultrafine (nano-scale) oxygen-carrying bubbles to water concurrently with dissolved carbon-dioxide (CO2) could result in safe, long-duration anesthesia for fish. RESULTS To confirm the lethal effects of CO2 alone, fishes were anesthetized with dissolved CO2 in 20°C seawater. Within 30 minutes, all fishes, regardless of species, died suddenly due to ...

We investigate the role of carbon nanotubes structure on their optical limiting properties. Samples of different and well-characterized structural features are studied by optical limiting and pump-probe experiments. The influence of the diameter's size on the nano-object is demonstrated. Indeed, both nucleation and growth of gas bubbles are expected to be sensitive to diameter.

This paper presents work using the capabilities of two TEM with in-situ ion irradiation facilities: Microscope and Ion Accelerator for Materials Investigation (MIAMI) at the University of Huddersfield and Joint Accelerators for Nano-science and Nuclear Simulation JANNuS at Centre de Spectrométrie Nucléaire et de Spectrométrie de Masse (CSNSM), Orsay, France, to study the nucleation and growth o...

Nano materials have been widely used in laboratory and industrial scales in order to improve various properties of concrete and concrete mixture. The mainstream practice of the researches in this field is to add metallic nano-particles into the concrete mixture. The present research focuses on adding Micro-Nano Air Bubbles (MNAB) into water before mixing it with aggregate and cement mixtures. I...
