چکیده

As a nanotechnology has been actively applied to the overall areas of scientific fields, it is necessary to understand the characteristic features, physical behaviors and the potential effects of exposure to nanomaterials and their toxicity. In this article we review the immunological influences induced by several nanomaterials and emphasize establishment of the animal models to estimate the impact of these nanomaterials on development of immunological diseases.

Study on Mass Transfer Enhancement in a Gas-Liquid System Using Nanomaterials

The main objective of this paper is to examine the effect of nanomaterials on mass transfer coefficient in bubble type absorption of carbon dioxide by experiment. The absorption process is carried out in a bubble column and in room temperature. Mass transfer coefficient, saturated concentration of CO2, and gas holdup are determined in this system. The kinds of nanomaterials, the concentrations ...

P 43: The Role of TWIK2 Channels on Immune Cells and its Impact in EAE/ MS Pathophysiology

TWIK2 ion channels (K2P6.1, encoded by a gene named Kcnk6) belong to the family of two-pore domain potassium channels. TWIK2 is also considered as a “silent” channel because of its inability to produce measurable currents in heterologous expression systems and its intracellular retention. It is expressed in different mammalian tissues including lymphoid organs and the vascular syste...
