We report the direct soft chemical synthesis and characterization of a family of face centered cubic (fcc) and partially ordered face centered tetragonal (fct) FePt nanoparticles (NPs) suitable for biomedical applications. Both fcc and partially ordered fct-FePt NPs are synthesized by employing a simple polyol method. By using polyvinyl pyrolidone (PVP) as a stabilizer in various ratios during ...

The present study examined the effects of a series of 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) derivatives on the diameter of renal arterioles to determine the structural requirements of the vasoconstrictor response to 20-HETE. The vascular responses to 5-, 8-, 12-, 15-, 19-, 20-, 21-HETEs, arachidonic acid (AA), and saturated, partially saturated, dimethyl, carboxyl, and 19-carbon derivatives...

The deoxygenation rate of hemoglobin solutions partially saturated with carbon monoxide, in the presence and absence of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) at 23” and pH 7.0 and 8.0 have been measured. When the rate is calculated over the initial, 30% of the reaction, solutions containing 98% HbOa show an increase in the rate as hemoglobin deoxygenates both at neutral and alkaline pH. Partial satu...

The injection of liquid from a central well into a partially saturated aquifer of finite thickness is described using similarity solutions. The solutions illustrate that injection leads to a growing zone around the source in which the fluid fills the whole depth of the aquifer. Beyond this zone, the current adjusts to the depth in the far field as the fluid slumps under gravity. The radial exte...
