The utilization of Response Surface Method (RSM) in investigating the engineering properties green Interlocking Compressed Earth Brick (ICEB) is a promising method compared to conventional methods because it reduces time taken and cost be implemented. RSM tool used develop models based on input independent response variables, which predicts output with high accuracy. Therefore, objectives this ...

BACKGROUND Single-balloon endoscopy (SBE) has been introduced as a simplified endoscopy technique after the promotion of double-balloon endoscopy (DBE). The difference in clinical performance between DBE and SBE is still not very clear. In this study, we aimed to compare the efficacy and safety between these 2 endoscopic procedures. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 173 patients with suspected sm...

Background Three device-assisted deep endoscopic platforms presently exist and are available for clinical use: double-balloon enteroscopy, single-balloon enteroscopy (SBE), and spiral enteroscopy (SE). In a retrospective study, SE was associated with a greater depth of maximal insertion (DMI) with similar diagnostic yields and procedure time as compared with SBE. Aims This was a prospective, ...

OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the comparative accuracy of supine bicycle exercise echocardiography (SBE) and posttreadmill exercise echocardiography (TME) in detecting myocardial ischemia in patients with known or suspected coronary artery disease (CAD). BACKGROUND Supine bicycle echocardiography and TME have been used for evaluation of CAD. However, the comparative accuracy of these moda...

The major effects with exposure to high levels of chlorophenols are on the liver and the immune system. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has declared that the chlorophenols, are carcinogenic to man. The current study aims to analyze the residual bleaching effluent received from all bleaching stages of Jute Cady pulp for its con...

This study was conducted to develop calcium-fortified shank bone extract (SBE) and to determine the effect of adding calcium lactate on physico-chemical characteristics of SBE during cold storage. The following five experiment groups were used: Control (0%, no addition), T1 (0.05% calcium lactate), T2 (0.1% calcium lactate), T3 (0.5% calcium lactate), and T4 (1% calcium lactate). When the conce...

Starch the main storage carbohydrate in higher plants Ta& 1. Characterjstjcs of the SBE c-NA from p a t o and is composed of the two polysaccharides, amylopectin (approximately 75%) and amylose (approximately 25%). Amylopectin is a highly branched a-1,4 glucan containing a1,6 branch points, whereas amylose is composed of long, linear a-1,4 glucans, some of which have very few a-1,6 branch point...

The solubility of trihexyphenidyl (Thp) was improved by its combination with β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) and modified β-CDs. The solubility of Thp was found to be increased in the presence of β-CD, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD), methyl-β-cyclodextrin (Me-β-CD) and sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBE-β-CD). In particular, the solubility of Thp in conjunction with SBE-β-CD was increased by a f...
