Background: Corrosive esophageal burns have high morbidity and mortality. The effective treatment is controversial. In our study, we aimed to examine the effects of resveratrol (RSV) platelet rich plasma (PRP) on healing in corrosive esophagitis model rats. 
 Material methods: A total 24 rats were randomly divided into 4 groups each as esophagitis, control, PRP RSV groups. No was administe...

Detrimental corrosive potential‐induced degradation at the rear side of bifacial solar cells has been found recently. This effect is nonreversible and shows typical surface damages in micrometer scale. However, also areas showing no such damage suffer from electrical losses. Cracks nanometer scale underneath surface, that is, interface between Si bulk Al 2 O 3 , turn out to be cause this effect...

A common belief is that alkali ingestion causes severe esophageal damage and limited gastric injury due to the buffering action of acid. Gastric injury has been observed in patients who ingested alkali. Gastric outlet obstruction (GOO) secondary to caustic ingestion occurs due to fibrosis after resolution of the acute injury and inflammation, most commonly 6 to 12 weeks after initial ingestion....

This paper presents the experimental research into the evaluation of lubricity for polyolester (POE) lubricant with HFC-134a refrigerant in rotary and reciprocating compressors for household refrigerators. In order to evaluate the lubricity for POE lubricant with HFC-134a refrigerant, we conducted 4-balls wear tests in the mixing environment of POE lubricant and HFC-134a refrigerant. In the pre...
