We report the discovery of a large H  cloud in the central regions of the Virgo cluster. It is 110 × 25 kpc in size and contains 3.4×108 M⊙ of H . The morphology and kinematics of this cloud strongly suggest that it consists of H  removed from the galaxy NGC 4388 by ram-pressure stripping. It is more likely the result of an interaction of the ISM of NGC 4388 with the hot halo of the M86 grou...

BACKGROUND Laparoscopic surgery has become the gold-standard treatment for ovarian endometriomas. The objective of this trial was to evaluate different procedures for the laparoscopic excision of ovarian endometriomas with the stripping technique. METHODS Forty-eight patients with ovarian endometrioma were enrolled in two consecutive independent randomized trials. Two different techniques wer...

INTRODUCTION Patients with esophageal cancer frequently cannot tolerate thoracotomy due to their overall debilitated condition. Moreover, some patients have severe adhesions in the thoracic cavity. Eversion stripping of the esophagus is an option for resection in these patients. PRESENTATION OF CASE A 64-year-old man was admitted to our institution with the chief complaint of epigastric pain....

Bioethanol is an important biofuel with high potential to be a safety environmental alternative fossil fuels. However, bioethanol production involves many distillation steps, which one of the most energy consuming separation processes. Unconventional techniques were proposed, aiming reduce cost and CO2 emissions on production. Parastillation metastillation processes novelty combinations these e...

Sneesby et al. recently suggested that adding trays in the stripping and rectifying sections of a reacti®e distillation column can degrade performance. This effect, if true, is not only counterintuiti®e, but ®ery disturbing because it suggests that the design of reacti®e distillation columns cannot use conser®ati®e estimates of tray numbers, that is, we cannot simply add excess trays, as in con...

We investigate environmental effects on evolution of cluster galaxies under hierarchical structure formation scenario using combination of a dissipationless N-body simulation and a semi-analytic model of galaxy formation. The N-body simulation enables us to calculate orbits of galaxies in simulated clusters. Therefore we can include stripping of cold gas from the galactic disks by ram pressure ...

in a study of 310 patients with suspected dermatophytic lesions, 110 cases of dermatophytosis, were diagnosed by direct smear in 10% koh and culture by two methods, skin stripping with use of adhesive tape and scrapping with scalpel blade conventional technique). out of 65 positive cultures, in 33 cases, growth was obtained by methods (scraping and stripping), 23 by the conventional technique a...

Distillation is not only the most energy consumer but also the most frequently-adopted separation operation in chemical industries since it separates a mixture only by the difference among vapor pressures (boiling points) of components. So distillation is often called as the king of separation processes. Therefore, research and development of technologies on energy savings of distillation is an...
