BACKGROUND While lipid emulsion may reverse the systemic toxicity of bupivacaine, the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of bupivacaine after lipid emulsion infusion are not clear. In this study, we assessed the influence of lipid emulsion administration on the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of bupivacaine. METHODS Rats in the lipid group were administered IV bupivacaine at th...

A functional fabric with hierarchical structure consisting of basalt fibre as a substrate and polyvinyl alcohol coating was developed, aiming at providing low cost high-performance way to separate highly emulsified oil in water. The functioned hydrophilic gate for the penetration water emulsion, whereas micro-channels formed offered capillary force continuous flow synergy these two materials le...

We developed a method for coupling protein to its coding DNA on magnetic microbeads using emulsion PCR and cell-free protein synthesis in emulsion. A PCR mixture containing streptavidin-coated microbeads was compartmentalized by water-in-oil (w/o) emulsion with estimated 0.5 template molecules per droplet. The template molecules were amplified and immobilized on beads via bead-linked reverse pr...

Fuel with the addition of water, forming fuel-water emulsions, is a potential way to reduce emission pollutants from gas turbines powered by any liquid fuel. This article analyzes available work on combustion emulsions in turbines. The literature analysis was preceded theoretical introduction emulsion, taking into account factors influencing its micro- and macroscopic properties. basic features...

In this contribution, the investigation conducted on alternative fuels includes methanol 20% blended with gasoline 80% and emulsion-based fuel composition of 80%, ethanol 15%, H2O 5% are compared 100% conventional fuel. These fueled single-cylinders spark ignition engine is studied for checking their performance emission characteristics as per future norms. This work performed One-dimensional A...

Emulsions are widely used for pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic applications. To guarantee that their critical quality attributes meet specifications, it is desirable to monitor the emulsion manufacturing process. However, finding of a suitable process analyzer has so far remained challenging. This article introduces diffusing wave spectroscopy (DWS) as an at-line technique to follow the manuf...

This work presents a comparison of three autoradiography techniques for imaging biological samples contaminated with actinides: emulsion-based, plastic-based autoradiography and a quantitative digital technique, the iQID camera, based on the numerical analysis of light from a scintillator screen. In radiation toxicology it has been important to develop means of imaging actinide distribution in ...
