poly(ethylene adipte) and poly(ethylene adipate)/silica nanocomposite (pead/sio2) containing 3 wt. % sio2  were prepared by an in situ method. the examinations on the non-isothermal crystallization kinetic behavior have been conducted by means of differential scanning calorimeter (dsc). the avrami, ozawa, and combined avrami and ozawa equations were applied to describe the crystallization kinet...

a theoretical study of the kinetic and mechanism of 3-aug-cope rearrangement in gas phase was performed usingdet methods at b3lyp levels of theory with 6-3114ig(d,p) bass set at 298.i5k. equilibrium moleculargeometries and harmonic vibrational frequencies of the reactant, transition state did product were calculated. then,rate constant and activation thermodynamics parameters were calculated an...

this study was designed to compare the effectiveness of different activation treatments for activation of in vitro matured oocytes and their developmental potency in mcr2aa medium so as to obtain maximum number of embryos. a total of 1090 cumulus oocyte complexes (coc’s) were collected from 480 ovaries. in vitro matured oocytes were randomly divided into four groups. group 1 in vitro matured oo...

the goal of this study was to determine the effects of the l-type calcium channel blockers verapamil and diltiazem on the currents of voltage-gated potassium channel (fkv1.4δn), an n-terminal-deleted mutant of the ferret kv1.4 potassium channel. measurements were made using a two electrode voltage clamp technique with channels expressed stably in xenopus oocytes. the fkv1.4δn currents displayed...

in the present research work, the kinetics of sunflower oil transesterification reaction in the presence of ba-sr/zsm-5 nanocatalyst which prepared using incipient wetness impregnation method was investigated. the 10wt.%ba-sr/zsm-5 (sr/ba=3/2) nanocatalyst was calcined at 600 °c for 6 h with a heating rate of 3 ºc/min. the experimental conditions were the methanol/oil 9/1molar ratio, reaction t...

the purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of intracytoplasmic sperm injection (icsi) and piezo-assisted sperm injection after pretreatment with calcium ionophore (cai) on the mouse embryo development. methods: in this study, the conventional icsi and piezo-icsi procedures were used. the efficacy of the methods was examined after mouse matured oocytes were fertilized with or witho...

energy and mass transfer investigations in thermal processing of fruits serve as a breakthrough in the design and scale up of drying systems. diffusivity characteristics and specific energy consumption for drying of fig fruit in a laboratory scale microwave dryer were assessed. several intervals for microwave power intensity including 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, and 2.5 w g-1, and 6 levels of power on-off ...

jujube (zizyphus jujube mill), a valuable medicinal plant, is consumed either as fresh fruit or dried product in iran. drying jujube guarantees a longer shelf time while preserving its quality to be used in medical and pharmaceutical industries. in this research paper, the influence of several drying conditions on the effective moisture diffusivity, activation energy, energy consumption and req...

gamma-scintigraphy is applied extensively in the development and evaluation of pharmaceutical delivery systems, particularly for monitoring formulations in the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts. the radiolabelling is generally achieved by the incorporation of an appropriate radionuclide such as technetium-99m or indium-111 into the formulation or by addition of a non-radioactive isotope s...

carbon activated powdered was prepared from activated carbon derived from olive stone. then byusing the surface methodology, many parameters such as ph, furnace temperature (t), acid ratio,time of activation that affect on the qualities prepared activated carbon produced and its efficiencywere investigated. in addition, the adsorption of congo red onto the activated olive stone carbonactive was...
