We present the case of a 22-year-old man who sustained a gunshot wound to the scrotum. The imaging findings and management of the patient are described and discussed in the context of prior research pertaining to traumatic bladder rupture. Non-pressurized antegrade 10-minute delayed CT may result in unnecessary radiation exposure, delayed diagnosis and is not adequate to exclude bladder rupture...

The reductive cyclization of suitably substituted organic nitro compounds by carbon monoxide is a very appealing technique for the synthesis heterocycles because its atom efficiency and easiness separation only stoichiometric byproduct CO2, but need pressurized CO has hampered diffusion. We have recently reported on indoles o-nitrostyrenes using phenyl formate as surrogate, palladium/1,10-phena...

This study reviews and evaluates technical standards of “underground fire hydrants”,that are installed in places vulnerable to fires, such as traditional markets doss houses Korea, that easily used by fire-fighters the first response fires. In future, this is expected be a fire-fighting facility can stably using water source without additional equipment pressurized transport device or electrici...

Primary neuronal cell cultures are valuable tools to study protein function since they represent a more biologically relevant system compared to immortalized cell lines. However, the post-mitotic nature of primary neurons prevents effective heterologous protein expression using common procedures such as electroporation or chemically-mediated transfection. Thus, other techniques must be employed...

Highly combustible gases such as hydrogen, propane, and acetylene are used at all nuclear power plants. Hydrogen is of particular importance because it is stored in large quantities and is distributed and used continuously in buildings containing safety-related equipment. Large hydrogen releases at the hydrogen storage facilities or in these buildings could lead to fires or explosions that migh...

A higher yield of glycoalkaloids was recovered from potato peels using pressurized liquid extraction (1.92 mg/g dried potato peels) compared to conventional solid-liquid extraction (0.981 mg/g dried potato peels). Response surface methodology deduced the optimal temperature and extracting solvent (methanol) for the pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) of glycoalkaloids as 80 °C in 89% methanol. ...

In the last few years increasing attention has been devoted to utilization of electroFenton (EF) and EF based technologies for treatment wastewater polluted by recalcitrant organics. It shown that performances can be strongly improved using ultraviolet (UV) irradiation, e. g., photo-electroFenton (PEF) method, or pressurized air oxygen, pressurized-electroFenton (PrEF) one. Although several stu...

In this paper, the problem of large pure bending deformations of membrane is considered. The membrane is a sector of torus with a closed cross-section. This membrane is called a curved tube for short. We consider the homogenous, incompressible, isotropic and hyperelastic material. The external load is a constant pressure and bending couples acting at the edges. The equilibrium equations reduce ...
