Renormalization group theory is applied to stratified turbulence. Various results due to nonlinearities, buoyancy and reference temperature gradient So are reported for cases where (Sol ts untform and sufficiently large. The main result is that the imposition of strong stratification leads to a new renormalization group fixed point and a (-3) law for the

Ocular Drug Delivery has been a key challenge and attractive field for the pharmaceutical scientist due to peerless anatomy physiology of eye. Glaucoma, dry eye syndrome, keratitis, endophthalmitis, trachoma, conjunctivitis are just few conditions that can affect In order accomplish efficient ocular treatment within eye, At point action, an appropriate supply active substances must be given sus...

Silica nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical methods from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), polyethylene glycol 5% and hydrochloric acid 0.001 N. The sol-gel process was applied for the preparation of nano silica gel. This method is hydrolysis and condensation reactions of TEOS as precursor of silica. The optimal synthesis conditions for the preparation of silica nanoparticles were obtained ...

Dielectrophoretic Elastomer Actuators In article number 2208943, Jonathan Rossiter, Majid Taghavi, and co-workers illustrate the novel capability of new gels to move morph in an electric field. The image shows how amorphous gel deforms moves non-uniform field established by point electrode. Colored lines depict which converge at

Alkaline phosphatase from human liver was purified to homogeneity. The purification procedure included solubilization with butanol, fractionation with acetone, and chromatography on concanavalin A-Sepharose, DEAE-cellulose, Sephadex G-200 and DEAE-Sephadex. Purity was established by standard and sodium dodecyl sulphate/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis. The isoelectric point of the protein was...

An endo-beta-glucuronidase acting on chondroitin sulfate was isolated from rabbit liver and purified about 550-fold, using a combination of ammonium sulfate fractionation, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, gel filtration on Sephacryl S-300, affinity chromatography through heparin-Sepharose CL-6B and preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The pH optimum of this enzyme was 4.0 and the Km va...

The crystallization of proteins or colloids is often hindered by the appearance of aggregates of low fractal dimension called gels. Here we study the effect of electrostatics upon crystal and gel formation using an analytic model of hard spheres bearing point charges and short range attractive interactions. We find that the chief electrostatic free energy cost of forming assemblies comes from t...

Ornithine decarboxylase was purified to homogeneity, as judged by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and polyacrylamide gel electrofocusing, about 710,000-fold with a 35% yield from the liver cytosol of thioacetamide-treated rats. The final specific activity was approximately 24,400 nmol/ min/mg of protein. The apparent molecular weight of the enzyme determined by gel fil...

The viscoelastic properties of a binary mixture of a mesogenic side-chain block copolymer in a low molecular weight nematic liquid crystal are studied for mass concentrations ranging from the diluted regime up to a liquid crystalline gel state at about 3%. In the gel state, the system does not flow, exhibits a polydomain structure on a microscopic level, and strongly scatters light. Below the g...
