This paper considers the joint use of two popular geophysical methods (fracture-induced electromagnetic radiation and seismic refraction tomography) to assess stress-state in underground mine-workings. Such a combination indirect allows identification zones increased stress rock along axis mine-workings, intense weakening or disintegration massif above roof The measurements longitudinal compres...

The in vivo disintegration of luting cements was determined at 6- and 12-month intervals in two test series of 20 participants each. Four cements were inserted in the wells located in the mesial and distal surfaces of cast crowns. Glass ionomer, silicophosphate, polycarboxylate, and zinc phosphate cements prepared with recommended powder/liquid ratios are discussed, and are ranked with respect ...

Nanocrystalline cellulose particles are new class of cellulose materials that can find the wide application in various technical areas, biotechnology and medicine. The nanoparticles are usually made by treatment or initial cellulose samples with concentrated sulfuric acid (SA) at various temperatures and following mechanical or ultrasound disintegration. Unfortunately, conditions of existing me...

Objective: The aim of this work was preparing once daily fast disintegrating tablets to handle easily for adult hypertensive patients who have difficulty in swallowing. Methods: Solid dispersions bisoprolol hemifumarate (SD-BH) was prepared by using EC and HPMC in different ratios. A 3* 22 full factorial design was used to investigate the main formulation parameters (different fillers, binder d...

One "Quality by Design" approach is the focus on the variability of the properties of the active substance. This is crucially important for active substances that are obtained from natural resources such as herbal plant material and extracts. In this paper, we present various strategies for the development of herbal products especially taking into account the natural batch-to-batch variability ...
