Polyester pad was utilized as solid support for rearing Cochliomyia hominivorax Coquerel larvae in liquid diet and compared with the ground meat diet. There were no significant differences in the mean third instar larvae and pupal weights, number of pupae, emergence and rearing efficiency. The tests were conducted through four consecutive generations, presenting no detectable effect in any of t...

Stem/progenitor cells are promising candidates for a therapy of renal failure. However, sound knowledge about implantation and regeneration is lacking. Therefore, mechanisms leading from stem/progenitor cells into tubules are under research. Renal stem/progenitor cells were isolated from neonatal rabbit kidney and mounted between layers of polyester fleece. It creates an artificial interstitium...

Dielectric spectra of the polyester poly(propylene succinate) were measured upon crystallization. For this model aliphatic polyester the alpha and beta relaxations appear simultaneously and are well resolved in the experimental frequency window. During isothermal crystallization, this fact allows one to use the beta relaxation to characterize the crystalline structural development while the alp...

in order to examine the effects of essential oils and silver nanoparticles as anantimicrobial preservative in the solutions of alstroemeri cv. sukari cut flowers, anexperiment was conducted with 11 treatments and 3 replications in a completelyrandomized design. in this study, we used essences of carvacrol, thymol and zataria oilwithconcentrations of 50 and 100 mg l-1 and silver nanoparticles wi...

Increased interest in marine resources has led to increased screening of marine fungi for novel bioactive compounds and considerable effort is being invested in discovering these metabolites. For compound discovery, small-scale cultures are adequate, but agitated bioreactors are desirable for larger-scale production. Calcarisporium sp. KF525 has recently been described to produce calcaride A, a...

Compression properties of textile materials are useful for determining fullness, softness, smoothness, and stiffness. In addition, compression parameters have significant influence on fabric hand value quality materials. The present paper reports a study the sublimation printing process change in knitted fabrics (polyester, cotton, cotton/ polyester) intended sportswear manufacturing. For that ...

A series of monoazo disperse dyes based on naphthalimide was synthesized using N-alkylcarboxylic acid-1,8-naphthalimide as diazo component and N,N-diethylaniline derivatives as a coupling components. 4-amino-N-ethanoic (propanoic) acid-1,8-naphthalimide was synthesized from 4-nitro-1,8-naphthalic anhydride by imidation and subsequent reduction reactions. These compounds were diazotized and furt...

this study was carried out to investigate the effect of differentpreservative solutions to improve the keeping quality of tuberose (polianthes tuberosa cv. single). these preservative solutions (treatments) were: t1= 2% sucrose + 200 mg/l agno3, t2= 2% sucrose + 200 mg/l agno3 + 25 mg/l citric acid, t3= 2% sucrose + 300 mg/l hqs, t4 = 2% sucrose + 300 mg/l hqs+ 25 mg/l citric acid, t5= 2% sucro...
