in this work application of seven synthetic polymers as adsorbents for the removal of hg(ii) from aqueous solution was studied. the equilibrium studies are systematically carried out in a batch process, covering various process parameters that include agitation time, adsorbent dosage, and ph of the aqueous solution. variations of hg(ii) concentration in solution have been studied through measur...

in the present study seven synthetic polymers were used as adsorbents for the removal of cd(ii) from aqueous solution. the equilibrium studies were systematically carried out in a batch process, covering various process parameters that include agitation time, adsorbent dosage, and ph of the aqueous solution. the analyzing system was an atomic absorption spectrometer (perkin-analyst 100). it was...

Objective(s): Production of effective tuberculosis (TB) vaccine is necessity. However, the development of new subunit vaccines is faced with concerns about their weak immunogenicity. To overcome such problems, polymers-based vaccine delivery systems have been proposed to be used via various routes. The purpose of this study was to determine the potential of polymeric particles as future vaccine...

Today, the use of natural polymers and their replacement with synthetic polymers in various fields of science has attracted much attention. Reducing the associated risks, easy access, and being cost-effective are among the advantages of using natural polymers compared to the synthetic polymers. In this research, the destruction of amylopectin in the presence and absence of titanium dioxide nano...

mucoadhesive polymers that bind to the gastric mucin or epithelial cell surface are useful in drug delivery for the purpose of increasing the intimacy and duration of contact of drug with the absorbing membrane. several synthetic polymers are in use for this purpose. since the biodegradability of the synthetic polymers are questionable, in this investigation, an oral mucoadhesive controlled del...

Synthetic polymers have been widely used in making various medical devices, such as disposable supplies, implants, drug delivery systems and tissue engineering scaffolds. The advantages of using polymers, as biomaterials, are their manufacturability. Polymers are easy to fabricate into various sizes and shapes compared to metals and ceramics. They are also light in weight and with a wide range ...
