the aim of the present study was to prepare an oral tablet from liquid yogurt by reforming the physical properties for easy transportation, long-term storage and also as a complementary dairy product in case of nutrient deficiency. the liquid fresh yogurt was lyophilized at -40°c and 0.03 mtor pressure. the dry powder was homogenized by a 12 mesh size sieve. some tests such as carr’s compressib...

OBJECTIVE To test the efficacy of a tablet computer training intervention to improve cognitive abilities of older adults. DESIGN Prospective randomized controlled trial. SETTING Community-based aging intervention study, Edinburgh, UK. PARTICIPANTS Forty-eight healthy older adults aged 65 to 76 years were recruited at baseline with no or minimal tablet experience; 43 completed follow-up te...

Project Goal and Relevance The goal of this project is to provide a low-cost alternative to the traditional endoscopic image systems that are expensive and not portable. There are already existing solutions such as Endoscope-I that consist of an imaging software and an endoscope adapter to iPhone. Clinicians who used it, however, pointed out some limitations of this existing solution. Firstly, ...

the present investigation was aimed at developing a novel colon targeted system of lornoxicam based on the use of a combination of ph dependent system (to prevent the premature release of drug in the upper git) and enzymatically degradation system (to ensure the specificity of drug release in the colon). the drug loaded guar gum microspheres prepared by emulsification cross-linking method were ...

Multi-drug tablets of amlodipine besylate and atenolol were prepared as either mono-layer (mixed matrix) or bilayer tablets containing each drug in a separate layer by using similar excipients and processing. Each tablet batch was packed in strip and blister packs and kept under accelerated temperature and humidity conditions. The stability of two tablet and packaging types was compared by HPLC...

The kinetic (or sliding) friction of pharmaceutical tablets and capsules influences how they will behave during the conveying, coating, and packaging operations that are used for drug product manufacturing. In order to logically design equipment for manufacturing and packaging operations, and to simulate manufacturing and packaging performance (for example, using discrete or finite element mode...

This paper presents the configuration and digital signal processing details of a tablet-based hearing aid transmitting wirelessly to standard earphones, whereby the tablet performs full sound processing rather than solely providing a means of setting adjustment by streaming to conventional digital hearing aids. The presented device confirms the recognized advantages of this tablet-based approac...
