The possible role of complement activation in the development of transient granulocytopenia during nylon fiber filtration leukapheresis ( FL) was studied in five normal donors. No changes in hemolytic complement (CH50) titers were observed in the donors’ circulating plasma at any point in the procedure. However, comparison of preand postfilter blood samples drawn 1 mm after donor blood passed t...

Adherence of chicken heterophils was evaluated at 37 C using preconstructed columns containing various weights of nylon fiber (75 mg, 100 mg, or 125 mg) and whole blood anticoagulated with sodium heparin or 10% disodium ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA). Additionally, 50-mg and 75-mg nylon fiber columns incubated at 41 C were used to evaluate heterophil adherence at an increased temperatu...

in this paper, the possibility of using a new ordered nanoporous carbon as a new fiber in headspace solid phase microextraction (hs-spme) to determine of mononitrotoluenes (mnts) in waste water is demonstrated. the structural order and textural properties of the ordered nanoporous carbon were studied by x ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) images and nitrogen adsorption i...

BACKGROUND Flexural strength (FS) of denture base resins (DBRs) had been improved by reinforcing it with different glass fibers. However, a limited data are available on the effect of glass fiber reinforcement with conventional heat-cured resin after prolonged water storage. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES This study aimed to evaluate the reinforcing effect of novel S-glass and nylon fibers on the FS of ...

A new method is developed to directly spinning perfectly uniaxial fibers in an ultrafast manner. Besides, this method can tune the fibers' diameter through adjusting processing parameters such as the feeding rate of precursors. Uniaxial nylon 66 fibers prepared via this method show superior mechanical properties due to the alignment in each level of the structure.
