This study is about the non-uniform electric field for splitting of water in oil emulsion. If the process occurs in an inhomogeneous electrical field, the drops are polarized and then their mobility is increased. The emulsion drops will be charged and move toward the central point of splitter where the maximum intensity of electrical field has been concentrated. In this process, the drops encou...

Ellipsoid-shaped nanoclusters composed of single superparamagnetic nanoparticles can be generated by emulsion electrospinning. Stretching and subsequent solvent evaporation of iron oxide loaded emulsion droplets during the emulsion electrospinning process enables the creation of such structures embedded in polymer nanofibers. Dissolution of the polymer fibers yields an aqueous dispersion of the...

In a prospective, randomized clinical trial, the toxicity of 1 mg of amphotericin B (AmB) per kg of body weight per day infused in 5% dextrose was compared with that of AmB infused in lipid emulsion in children with malignant disease. In an analysis of 82 children who received a full course of 6 days or more of AmB (117 courses), it was shown that there were significant increases in plasma urea...

BACKGROUND The goal of this in vitro study was to investigate the effect of lipid emulsion on vasodilation caused by toxic doses of bupivacaine and mepivacaine during contraction induced by a protein kinase C (PKC) activator, phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), in an isolated endothelium-denuded rat aorta. METHODS The effects of lipid emulsion on the dose-response curves induced by bupivacaine o...

The process parameters, starch-water ratio (A, (w/v) %), pH of suspension (B), Temperature(C, °C) and Time (D, hrs.)., were optimized for the preparation of starch-lysine conjugate and studying their effect on stability of emulsions by calculating emulsion stability index using response surface methodology. The optimized conditions are pH 9.0, temperature 60C, reaction time 6 hrs, starch:water ...

Emulsion type is often related to the preferential solubility of the emulsifying agent in one of the Phases (Bancroft rule). Recently, however, emulsion type has been interpreted quantitatively, though purely empirically, according to the hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) classification. The relation of HLB numbers to the solubility of the emulsifying agent in the oil or water phases is disc...

In situ combustion of a water-in-oil emulsion layer supported on water is a complex process. In this paper, the combustion process of water-in-oil emulsion layers floating on top of a water body, as in the case of in situ burning of oil spilled at sea that has turned into emulsion, is modeled by using comprehensive mathematical treatment, and the results are compared with data obtained in our l...

one small-scale double emulsion technique for incorporation of naja- naja oxiana venom into poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (plga) microspheres were developed and optimized. the effects of high speed homogenization on the double emulsion stability, microsphere size, entrapment efficiency and in vitro release of venom were studied. a stable double emulsion was verified by homogenization method. slow...

Cell-wall skeleton prepared from Mycobacterium bovis BCG (BCG-CWS) is known as a potent adjuvant and has been shown to possess antitumor activity in many non-clinical and clinical studies. As there are no approved BCG-CWS formulations for cancer therapy, we investigated the potential for cancer immunotherapy of SMP-105, our originally produced BCG-CWS. For optimizing SMP-105 emulsion, we compar...

In high-resolution radioautography, a common source of difficulty in the use of the loop method for applying Ilford L-4 emulsion (1) is an inhomogeneous distribution of water in the emulsion . This inhomogeneity may be due to bad environmental conditions during transportation. It is easily cured by melting the entire bottle of emulsion once before use. Our standard procedure for the preparation...
