Vacuum Impregnation in food industry is an interesting process particularly in semy-dry fruit processing. At the beginning of the process the pressure is reduced and the internal gas in the product pores is expanded and partially flows out, after that, when atmospheric pressure is restored and residual gas is compressed, the external liquid flows into the pores. Although vacuum impregnation pro...

background the vacuum assisted closure (vac) therapy has revolutionized the modern wound care. we developed a new concept of ‘vac at home’ in order to decrease the hospital cost. methods the study was conducted in a private hospital from january 2009 to december 2010. only those patients were included among whom the wounds were not complicated by concomitant injury and the patients were otherwi...

conclusions intraperitoneal migration of a subfascially placed baclofen pump is a rare, yet serious complication, which has been reported only once in the literature. we advise neurosurgeons to have a low level of threshold in confirming the location of a baclofen pump with imaging and surgical exploration if necessary in order to avoid detrimental outcomes such as bowel perforation. case prese...

in critically ill infants and children, intravascular (iv) access is sometimes very difficult. in such cases intraosseous (io) infusion should be used as the method of choice. however, in practice, different problems are experienced with this procedure. to overcome the practical problems and to confirm the efficacy of io infusion in reversing hypovolemic shock, an animal model was used by emplo...

We report the generation of a continuous-wave squeezed vacuum resonant on the Rb D1 line (795 nm) using periodically poled KTiOPO4 (PPKTP) crystals. With a frequency doubler and an optical parametric oscillator based on PPKTP crystals, we observed a squeezing level of -2.75+/-0.14 dB and an antisqueezing level of +7.00+/-0.13 dB. This system could be utilized for demonstrating storage and retri...
