Storage in Saline Aquifers

CO2 Storage in Saline Aquifers

CO2 Storage in Saline Aquifers — Saline aquifers represent a promising way for CO2 sequestration. Storage capacities of saline aquifers are very important around the world. The Sleipner site in the North Sea is currently the single case world-wide of CO2 storage in a saline aquifer. A general review is given on the specific risks for CO2 storage in saline aquifer. The regional distribution of C...

Other patient-related factors that may contribute include smoking, immobility, sedation, muscle weakness, and dehydration. A mucous plug occ...

Stability of meropenem in normal saline solution after storage at room temperature.

The bactericidal activity of meropenem is determined by the time that concentrations in tissue and serum are above the MIC for the pathogens during the dosing interval. Thus, the most effective mode of administering of meropenem is continuous infusion. However, the stability of meropenem reconstituted in solution is influenced by the storage temperature. Until now we have had no data to evaluat...

Normal Saline vs. Hypertonic Saline Nebulization for Acute Bronchiolitis: A Randomized Clinical Trial

BackgroundWe aimed to compare the efficacy of nebulized hypertonic (3%, 5% and 7%) saline with normal saline in hospitalized infants with acute bronchiolitis.Materials and MethodsIn this triple-blinded randomized clinical trial, 120 children with moderate to severe bronchiolitis randomly assigned into four groups to receive nebulized normal saline (group A),  saline 3% (group B), saline 5% (gro...
