objective(s): pseudomonas aeruginosa is a nosocomial pathogen resistant to most antimicrobial treatments. furthermore, it persists in adverse environments thereby forming biofilms on various surfaces. researchers have therefore focused on antibiofilm strategies using nanoparticles due to their unique physicochemical properties. superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (sionps) have recently s...

P. aeruginosa has been mentioned as the major causative agents of nosocomial infections. Pseudomonas infections are often serious and show different resistance to treatment due to distribution of antimicrobial resistance. Meanwhile, some strains are also able to form biofilm during contamination, which help bacteria to be even more persisyant to yreatment. We examined the antibiotic resistance ...

superplastic materials show huge amount of deformation in low strain rates and temperature above half of melting point. in superplastic forming, estimating the pressure–time diagram and thickness distribution has significant importance. utilizing numerical methods, the involved parameters in superplastic forming can be optimized for such estimations. in the present paper, the simulation of supe...

background and objectives: kefiran (kef) is a water-soluble polysaccharide that can form transparent film however, it is brittle. therefore, in order to improve the mechanical properties of kefiran film, a mixture with other polymers can be offered. the expansion of mixed systems can propose kefiran and polyvinyl alcohol (pvoh) as a new composite film. materials and methods: solutions of 20 gra...

in this study, an extended stress-based forming limit diagram (fld) for prediction of necking based on the marciniak and kucznski (m-k) model is represented and applied in tube hydroforming. the bulge forming of a straight tube is simulated by finite element method and verified with published experimental data. this adaptive simulation technique is based on the ability to detect the onset and g...

Abstract The defect generation and recovery are studied in a high- k HfO 2 /SiO /Si stack for MOSFETs, at each fabrication step. is fabricated well-established manner, via chemical oxidation SiO interfacial layer atomic deposition layer, followed by post-deposition annealing (PDA), O plasma treatment, forming gas (FGA). Throughout the fabrication, carrier lifetime measured monitoring defects st...

background: retinoic acid as one of the most important regulators for cell differentiation was examined in this study for differentiation of human umbilical mesenchymal cells (hucm). methods: after isolation, hucm were evaluated for mesenchymal stem cell properties by flow cytometry and alkaline phosphatase assay. also, doubling time of the cells and their differentiation potential into adipoge...
