Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a non-ionic water soluble polymer that is used as an additive in protein solutions to induce protein crystallization. PEG in dilute solution concentrations and within a molecular weight range, induces an attractive protein-protein interaction. However the strength of this attractive proteinprotein interaction weakens with increasing PEG concentration and molecular w...

The partitioning of endo-polygalacturonase (endo-PG) in polyethylene glycol (PEG)-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA10000) and PEG-hydroxypropyl starch (Reppal PES100) aqueous two-phase systems was studied, and revealed the possibility of using aqueous two-phase extraction to purify and concentrate endo-PG from its clarified fermentation broth. For the PEG8000-PVA10000 system, endo-PG presented in the ferm...

BACKGROUND Polyethylene glycol (PEG) is often considered as the first-line treatment for functional constipation in children. Descurainia sophia (L.) Webb et Berth (D. sophia) is a safe recommended medicine in Iranian folk and Traditional Persian Medicine for the treatment of constipation. OBJECTIVES To clinically compare D. sophia with PEG 4000 (without electrolyte) in pediatric constipation...

The use of natural fibers in cement composites is a widening research field as their application can enhance the mechanical and thermal behavior mortars limit carbon footprint. In this paper, two different wild grasses, i.e., Ampelodesmos mauritanicus, also called diss, Pennisetum setaceum, known crimson fountaingrass, are used source aggregates for mortars. main purpose to assess possibility u...

The acidic solvolysis of lignocellulose using a glycol solvent such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) is a promising process for separating its components and producing a valuable lignin product that can be used as thermoplastic and fusible materials. To decrease operational costs, a glycol solvent that is used as a solvolysis reagent must be recovered and reused. In the present study, PEG was recov...

in this paper, finite element model of woven fabric target has been investigated which is impacted by a cylindrical projectile. fabrics are impregnated with shear thickening fluid (stf). the effects of the (stf) have been considered as frictional effect. the stf has been made (nano silica and polyethylene glycol (peg)) and then diluted by ethanol proportion of 3:1. yarn pulling out test from in...
