among various reported membrane-based gas separation processes, the best explanation is generally achieved by the solution-diffusion model. the main factors in this model are the solubility and diffusivity of permeationcomponents through the membrane. the prediction of permeability and diffusivity in multicomponent gas permeation as well as the separation evaluation equilibrium and kinetic inte...

The kinetics and isotherm studies of the immobilized lipase and the mechanism of immobilization on chitosan beads and activated chitosan beads with glutaraldehyde were investigated. The effect of glutaraldehyde on porosity of chitosan was evaluated by FESEM analysis. It was observed that the porosity of the carrier which has activated by glutaraldehyde was substantially increased. The validity ...

We have shown that buspirone, a partial agonist of 5-hydroxytryptamine 1A (5-HT1A) receptors, improves motor dysfunctions induced by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) and haloperidol in rats. The present work extends these findings by investigating the role of 5-HT1A receptors on catalepsy-like immobilization in rats, a model of Parkinson’s disease. Catalepsy was induced by unilateral infusion of 6-OH...

INTRODUCTION Vital signs remain important clinical indicators in the management of trauma. Tissue injury and ischemia cause tachycardia and hypertension, which are mediated via the sympathetic nervous system (SNS). Spinal immobilization is known to cause discomfort, and it is not known how this might influence the SNS and contribute to abnormal vital signs. Hypothesis This study aimed to establ...

The planarian, a freshwater flatworm, has proven to be a powerful system for dissecting metazoan regeneration and stem cell biology. Planarian regeneration of any missing or damaged tissues is made possible by adult stem cells termed neoblasts. Although these stem cells have been definitively shown to be pluripotent and singularly capable of reconstituting an entire animal, the heterogeneity wi...
