The study was focused on variability in discharges on equity of water distribution of outlets along the secondary canal. Hydraulic performance was evaluated based on delivery performance ratio (DPR), adequacy based on relative water supply (RWS) and variability in discharges using coefficient of variation (CVs). Off take and all outlets were calibrated by area velocity method. During study peri...

Dissolution-controlled drug delivery systems are characterized by a phase erosion of the polymer carrier that is associated with fast or slow dissolution of the macromolecular chains. The molecular nature of the dissolution phenomenon was examined by analyzing the water transport process and the subsequent polymer chain disentanglement that is usually characterized by a snake-like motion of the...

The water content and habitability of terrestrial planets are determined during their final assembly, from perhaps 100 1,000-km "planetary embryos " and a swarm of billions of 1-10-km "planetesimals. " During this process, we assume that water-rich material is accreted by terrestrial planets via impacts of water-rich bodies that originate in the outer asteroid region. We present analysis of wat...

Dear Friends, We all are well known with a fact of benefits of novel topical drug delivery systems, namely avoidance of hepatic first-pass metabolism, thus improving drug bioavailability, decreasing dosing frequency, and improving patient compliance. Regardless of the enormous investigations in topical and transdermal drug delivery systems, still stratum corneum is known as a major obstacle whi...

Osmotic drug delivery mechanism is well known in the field of oral controlled release systems. The release of drug from the osmotic drug delivery devices is based on the phenomenon of osmosis. An useful technology developed for osmotic delivery of drug is asymmetric membrane capsule (AMC), which is an economic and effective drug delivery device as compared to other existing technique of osmotic...
