Delivering medicine to the general circulation through the skin is associated with grater advantages compared to that by the oral route and hence the purpose of this investigation was to study the potential of rosiglitazone maleate for transdermal delivery using passive diffusion and iontophoresis. Physicochemical parameters of rosiglitazone maleate like solubility, pKa, octanol/vehicle and ski...

Urbanization has significantly increased over the last two centuries. In year 1800 only 2% of people lived in cities, while 1900 this percent to 12%. Recent studies indicate that 2008 more than 50% world population urban areas, with percentage expected reach 75% by 2030. Urban land cover occupies or 3% earth surface, yet it been recognized growth is associated many socioeconomic and environment...

The fracture resistance of all-ceramic restorations is one of the major concerns in clinical applications of these materials. Finite element analysis is usually applied in the studies of this area without considering changes in contacts with the antagonists teeth during the occlusal movements. A 3D model of a incisor was created: intact teeth, unrestored teeth; the same teeth restored with full...

Teleseismic P-wave receiver functions and surface-wave dispersion measurements can be employed to simultaneously infer the shear-wave velocity distribution with depth in the lithosphere. Receiver functions are primarily sensitive to shear-wave velocity contrasts and vertical travel times and surface-wave dispersion measurements are sensitive to vertical shear-wave velocity averages, so that the...

INTRODUCTION Glucose has been reported to have an essential role in the synthesis and secretion of insulin in hepatocytes. As the efflux of glucose is facilitated from the liver cells into the circulation, the mechanism of transportation of glucose into the hepatocytes for the synthesis of insulin was investigated. METHODS Grated liver suspension (GLS) was prepared by grating intact liver fro...

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) has great impact on the development of a developing country like Bangladesh. The foreign investor seeks for new sources of investment where the developing country seeks for new sources of fund to develop the country. The FDI does not only bring sources of fund in a developing country but also new technology in a developing country. The FDI has the important role ...

The ever higher complexity of manufacturing systems, continually shortening life cycles of products and their increasing variety, as well as the unstable market situation of the recent years require introducing grater flexibility and responsiveness to manufacturing processes. From this perspective, one of the critical manufacturing tasks, which traditionally attract significant attention in bot...

This paper discusses the requirements of having healthy environment in the Jordanian residential buildings, in general, and in Amman particularly, considering the healthy problems and the consequences of deceases, shortage of comfort and difficulty in using the spaces. The study presents a real problematic case in Jordan because of norms and executive instruments which are rarely ensure the min...

PURPOSE The neonatal mortality rate in Japan has currently been at the lowest level in the world. However, it is unclear whether there are still some potentially preventable neonatal deaths. We, therefore, aimed to examine the backgrounds of neonatal death and the possibilities of prevention in a region of Japan. MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a population-based study of neonatal death in Shig...

Wireless Capsule Endoscopy (WCE) is device to detect abnormalities in colon,esophagus,small intestinal and stomach, to distinguish bleeding in WCE images from non bleeding is a hard job by human reviewing and very time consuming. Consequently, automation for classifying bleeding frames not only will expedite the process but will reduce the burden on the doctors. Using the purity of the red colo...
