Microwave-, photo- and thermo-responsive polymer microgels that range in size from 500 to 800 microm and are swollen with water were prepared by a novel microarray technique. We used a liquid-liquid dispersion technique in a system of three immiscible liquids to prepare hybrid PNIPAm- co-AM core-shell capsules loaded with AuNPs. The spontaneous encapsulation is a result of the formation of doub...

Background: The subject of oil penetration into the skin is controversially discussed in the scientific literature. Methods: Confocal Raman microscopy was used for analyzing oil penetration into the skin. The following methods were applied in the study: methods based on tracking specific peaks (method 1), the nonrestricted multiple least square fit (method 2), analyzing the lipid-to-keratin pea...

Oil well drilling fluid rheology, lubricity, swelling, and loss control are all critical factors to take into account before beginning the hole's construction. Drilling fluids can be made smoother, more cost-effective, efficient by investigating evaluating effects of various nanoparticles including aluminum oxide (Al2O3) iron (Fe2O3) on their performance. A fluid's performance assessed comparin...

Abstract Since the influence of carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) on dynamic interfacial tension crude oil and aqueous solutions at elevated temperatures pressures is an important issue, this investigation aimed to measure IFT oil/water, CO , carbonated water. The measured values reveal that IFTs oil/CO are decreased through first interval, while a gradual continuous reduction in obtained second interval....

Objectives: Trans-alveolar extractions involve surgical removal of tooth that has its own postoperative sequelae, most commonly manifested as pain and swelling. This study aims to compare the efficacy topical ozone dexamethasone in management post-operative sequelae after mandibular trans-alveolar molar extractions. Materials Methods: Sixty patients requiring molars under local anesthesia were ...

vitexagnus- castus l. [vac.] has been used in the iranian traditional medicine for the treatment of pain and swelling of uterus. in this study, gc and gc/ms analyses  were carried out for the identification of essential oil chemical components. formalin and xylene-induced ear-edema were used in order to nociception and inflammation activity. then, the possible interaction between 3drugs includi...
