Proton conductivity and morphology of new composite membranes based on zirconium phosphates, phosphotungstic acid, and silicic acid for direct hydrocarbon fuel cells applications
(Springer, 2016-11)
The effect of Phosphotungstic acid (PWA) on the proton conductivity and morphology of zirconium phosphate (ZrP), porous polytetrafluoethylene (PTFE), glycerol (GLY) composite membrane was investigated in this work. The ...
Predicting the Release of Chemotherapeutics From the Core of Polymeric Micelles Using Ultrasound
(IEEE Explore, 2015)
In this paper, the estimation of acoustic drug release from micelles is addressed. The release is measured as a decrease in fluorescence once ultrasound is applied. Initially, a Kalman filter is used to fuse the drug ...
Factors affecting acoustically triggered release of drugs from polymeric micelles
(Elsevier, 2000)
A custom ultrasonic exposure chamber with real-time fluorescence detection was used to measure acoustically-triggered drug release from Pluronic P-105 micelles under continuous wave (CW) or pulsed ultrasound in the frequency ...
Analysis of Grain Screenings by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy
(American Vacuum Society, 2005)
Determining the chemical structure and composition of biomass fuels using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) can provide fundamental knowledge of their structures that is useful in understanding and predicting their ...
Analysis of 10,16-Diaza-1,4,7,13-tetrathiacyclooctane-9,17-dione by XPS
(American Vacuum Society, 2004)
10,16-Diaza-1,4,7,13-tetrathiacyclooctane-9,17-dione is important for its use as a fluorophoric metal detector. XPS was used to analyze the compound. The compound was mounted on a silicon plate using sticky tape.
Gas Phase Deposition of Trichloro(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane on Silicon Dioxide, by XPS
(American Vacuum Society, 2012)
Monolayers of trichloro(lH,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane, Cl3SiCH2CH2(CF2)5CF3, were deposited via chemical vapor deposition onto the native oxide layer on silicon after plasma-cleaning. The samples have high hydrophobicity, ...
Photocatalytic demulsification of oil/water emulsions containing nonionic surfactant
(Springer, 2020-11)
Separation of oil-water (OW) emulsions is investigated using a photocatalytic demulsification approach. Experiments were conducted using two types of photocatalysts, namely, ZnO and TiO2. The emulsion samples were prepared ...
Role of frequency and mechanical index in ultrasonic-enhanced chemotherapy in rats
(Springer, 2009)
Purpose The therapeutic effect of ultrasound and micellar-encapsulated doxorubicin was studied in vivo using a tumor-bearing rat model with emphasis on how tumor growth rate is affected by ultrasonic parameters such as ...
Rapid separation of very low concentrations of bacteria from blood
(Elsevier, 2017)
A rapid and accurate diagnosis of the species and antibiotic resistance of bacteria in septic blood is vital to increase survival rates of patients with bloodstream infections, particularly those with carbapenem-resistant ...
Analysis of 5-chloro-8-methoxy-2-(bromomethyl)quinoline by XPS
(American Vacuum Society, 2004)
Macrocyclic ethers are used extensively for their ability to form strong and selective interactions with charged species. It has been shown that the incorporation of heterocyclic groups into macrocylclic ethers increase ...
