Fisher, Fischell Department of Bioengineering Orbital floor fractures are a serious consequence of craniofacial trauma and account for approximately 60-70% of all ...

Feulgen and Bersin (1) obtained from the hydrolysis products of the acet>al phospholipide present in muscle a mixture of thiosemicarbazones. They suggested that these thiosemicarbazones are derivatives of pahnitic and stearic aldehydes, although t,hey gave no analytical data supporting this view. Anchel and Waelsch (2) obtained from hydrolysates of lipide mixtures from different tissues, includ...

immunodiagnostic tests. The recent advances in polymer In this work the interaction of an a-CRP IgG protein with science have made it possible to produce uniform latexes functionalized latexes that have acetal groups on their surfaces with desired size and surface characteristics. Thus, it is possihas been studied. Two acetal latexes with similar amounts of ble to obtain latex particles with sp...

Perfumes and fragrances are seen as an essential part of life in many countries, men women use perfumes regularly. Originally, the perfume ingredients were derived from natural sources such oils. However, these encountered challenges, poor crop quality, a limited supply supplies, or difficulties using plant animal extracts.
