abstract having no exact knowledge of most appropriate harvesting time in kiwifruit grown in different regions of guilan province, as well as the low storage longevity of the fruits are the most important factors causing considerable reduction in both marketability and export affairs. in this study, the influence of fruit quality in term of harvesting time on the postharvest quality and food va...

Here we report a case of a congenital, free-floating pigmented vitreous cyst in a child. A 12-year-old male was referred to the Ophthalmology Clinic for amblyopia on his left eye. Ophthalmologic examination revealed that the visual acuity was 20/20 in the right eye and 20/35 in the left eye. Findings of the anterior segment examination were normal. On dilated fundus examination, a free-floating...

IEEE Binary Floating-Point is an industrystandard architecture. The IBM System/360 hexadecimal floating-point architecture predates the IEEE standard and has been carried forward through the System/370 to current System/390 processors. The growing importance of industry standards and floatingpoint combined to produce a need for IEEE Floating-Point on System/390. At the same time, customer inves...

In recent years, Reversible logic has emerged as a major area of research due to its ability to reduce the power dissipation which is the main requirement in the low power digital circuit design. It has wide applications like low power CMOS design, Nano-technology, Digital signal processing, Communication, DNA computing and Optical computing. Floating-point operations are needed very frequently...

The most common approach for achieving sustained drug release is by the use of hydrophilic polymeric excipients directly compressed with active ingredients into tablets. Hydrophilic polymers swell in the presence of water to form hydrogel structures from which drugs are released by slow diffusion. The purpose of this study was to prepare a floating drug delivery system of levofloxacin, a fluoro...

The importance of the present investigation was to formulate a bilayer-floating tablet (BFT) for captopril using direct compression technology. The release layer contained captopril and various polymers such as HPMC-K15M, PVP-K30 and Carbopol 934p, alone or in combination with the drug. HPMC, K-grade and effervescent mixture of citric acid and sodium bicarbonate formed the floating layer. The f...

AIMS To obtain floating spheres from the adherent gastric cancer cell line SGC-7901 and to analyze the properties of the spheres. METHODS Serum-free medium was applied to cultured SGC-7901 cells. Limiting dilution assay, tumor formation assay, microarray analysis, and real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR were used to test the stem cell properties of the spheres. RESULTS A subpopulation of...

This paper presents a two stage operational transconductance amplifier realized using floating gate MOSFETs in differential inputs. A configuration of two stage operational transconductance amplifier using floating gate MOSFET for low power and low voltage applications is presented. Here we design a two stage operational transconductance amplifier using floating gate MOSFET in HSPICE 180nm CMOS...

Gastroretentive tablets of propranolol hydrochloride were developed by direct compression method using citric acid and sodium bicarbonate as the effervescent base. Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose; HPMC K15M was used to prepare the floating tablets to retard the drug release for 12h in stomach. Na-carboxymethyl cellulose (NaCMC) or carbopol 934P was added to alter the drug release profile or the d...

All the pharmaceutical products formulated for systemic delivery via the oral route of administration, irrespective of the mode of delivery (immediate, sustained or controlled release) and the design of dosage form (solid dispersion or liquid), must be developed within the intrinsic characteristics of GI physiology. The recent scientific and patented literature concluded that an increased inter...
