Inserting voluntarily foreign bodies (fb) in penis is used to allegedly improve male sexual performance, popular especially amongst people with low social and financial status. In the largest prison hospital in Romania, during 20032010 we studied a total of 48 patients manifesting this pathology. Foreign bodies were represented by fragments of plastic, oily substances or a combination of the ab...

Synthetic oily wastewaters were prepared from metal working fluids (MWF). Electrocoagulation experiments were performed under constant voltage application. The current, conductivity, pH, dissolved oxygen concentration and temperature were recorded on line at every 5 seconds during the experiments. Effects of applied voltage differences, electrode materials and distance between electrodes on rem...

We study the dynamics of focal conic domain (FCD) formation in a thermotropic smectic phase under shear stress. It is known that increasing the shear stress induces a non-equilibrium phase transition from a smectic phase with FCDs (SmAI) to another smectic phase (SmAII) in which the layers are oriented. By quenching the shear stress from the SmAII phase to the SmAI phase, we find three characte...

background: waste produced in dental clinics has been the topic of investigations for many years. these waste materials have important health impacts and are hazardous to humans and the environment. objective: to investigating solid waste production and its management in dental clinics in gorgan, northern iran. methods: in this cross-sectional study, 45 of 143 public dental practices and 5 of 2...

Results of basic research, animal experiments as clinical studies have suggested the influence of an oily Calcium Hydroxide suspension on bone regeneration in closed defects. Its osteostimulative effect, which can be characterized as biologic, seems to rely on factors as the deposit action of the Calcium Hydroxide (sustaining the bone metabolism in a constant, long-lasting mild alkalic environm...

Increased sebum production is a common skin complaint and plays an important role in acne and oily scalp conditions. To choose the correct skin care products, which mostly are marketed for dry, oily or normal skin, the consumer must self-assess their skin type. Studies show that individuals incorrectly self-assess their sebum secretion levels. In order to be able to correctly determine skin oil...

Monoaromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene have been found in sludge created by oil production facilities and industries. Benzene is considered as a carcinogenic substrate and biodegradation, primarily under aerobic conditions, is an important environmental process for water and soil associated benzene remediation. Aerococcus sp. strain BPD-6 isolated from petroleum hydrocarbon contaminated oily...

The objective of present study was to evaluate pharmacokinetic parameters of dibudipine Phytosolve after oral administration in rats. The solubility test was carried out to select suitable oily solvent for dibudipine. Phytosolve formulation was prepared with a medium chain triglyceride (MCT) oil (20%), soybean phospholipids (5%) and a 70% fructose solution (75%). The effect of polyol content on...
