This study aims to identify and analyze the band gap width of carbon phase produced from corncobs mixed with PEG-4000 see surface area corncob phase. First, characterization test was carried out using Scanning Electron Microscope Energy-Dispersive X-ray (SEM-EDX) spectroscopy determine morphology Ultraviolet–Visible (UV-Vis) carbon. Then, adding Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) 4000 at a specific conc...

BACKGROUND Recently, polyethylene glycol (PEG 3350) has been suggested as a good alternative laxative to lactulose as a treatment option in paediatric constipation. However, no large randomised controlled trials exist evaluating the efficacy of either laxative. AIMS To compare PEG 3350 (Transipeg: polyethylene glycol with electrolytes) with lactulose in paediatric constipation and evaluate cl...

A lignin-based water reducer for concrete was prepared from softwood soda lignin. The lignin and the lignin-polyethylene glycol (PEG) derivative were modified with ozone to improve their performance as reducers. of ozone-treated superior than untreated commercial lignosulfonate-type reducers in mortar flow test. treated a high charge showed better low charge. treatment improved lignin-PEG well....

The purpose of this research work was to study the effect polyethylene glycol (PEG) and polypropylene (PPG) as polyether polyols on properties mortar specimens. Electrochemical measurement used investigate change in charge transfer resistance during hydration cement. mechanical specimens were studied by flexural compressive strength tests. results show that PPG helps improve compared with PEG, ...

An investigation of the structure and drug release mechanism of a drug delivery system is proposed on the basis of semi-empirical and ab initio computations in vacuum stage. Cis-aconityl linkage is used to improve the interaction between an anti-cancer agent, doxorubicin, and a glycol chitosan biopolymer. It has been found that the doxorubicin-conjugated glycol chitosan carrier has more stabili...

Integration of liposomes in polymer matrix is a new concept of controlled drug delivery system. Those kind of materials allow to control dosage of applied drug and time of its release. Certain types of liposomes are unstable, so they require structural support. The main aim of the paper is to investigate how polymers influence aggregation of liposomes. Two different polymers were used for this ...

BACKGROUND Therapeutic and diagnosis properties of radioactive gold nanoparticle (198-AuNPs) cause them to be suitable for detection and treatment of tumors. OBJECTIVE Electrical and optical properties of PEG-198AuNPs were examined in this paper. Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)-198 AuNPs can be used for treatment and diagnosis of small intestine tumors. METHODS Wireless fluorescence capsule endos...

The attachment of polyethylene glycol (PEG) increases the circulation time of drug-containing nanoparticles; however, this also negatively affects cellular uptake. To overcome this problem, unique lipid polymer hybrid (LPH) nanoparticles were developed with a pH-responsive PEG layer that detached prior to cell uptake. Docetaxel (DTX) was incorporated into the lipid core of the nanoparticles, wh...
