bubble column reactors are used in a wide variety of applications such as multiphase bioreactors, catalytic slurry reactors, and absorption processes. the superficial gas velocity-gas holdup relationship and transition point are two important parameters for characterizing the hydrodynamics of a bubble column reactor. in this study, systematic investigation of a nitrogen - water - glass beads bu...

crosslinked poly(acrylic acid)s were prepared using two types of crosslinker by precipitation polymerization method in a binary organic solvent. n,n’-methylenebisacrylamide (mba) and polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate (pegdma-330) were used as low-molecular weight and long-chain crosslinkers, respectively. the effect of various types of crosslinkers on polymer characteristics (i.e., gel content...

sorption isotherm and thermal properties of powders were used for determining stability during storage. garlic slices with 2 mm thickness were dried, using two methods of freeze and cabinet drying. the results showed that, the density, loss of pyruvate and color changes of the freeze dried powder were less than those of the cabinet dried powder. sorption isotherm curves of the both garlic powde...

conclusions marital status may affect mets risk z score differently in both genders. results in comparison to participants who were married, no significant changes in mets risk z score was found in single participants. employed females in the transition to married group had significant increase in mets risk z score than single employed females. no significant changes in mets risk z score were o...

conclusions although previous studies have shown that a-g transition mutations in 23 srrna gene (domain v) are the main reason for the occurrence of high level macrolides resistance in b. pertussis, however, the mentioned single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) have not been detected in our resistant strain. this is the first report of high level macrolide resistant b. pertussis, without snps in...
