Particle uptake and translocation occur at specific sites in the gastrointestinal tract. Several drugs are also absorbed from solution only through narrow "windows' in the small intestine. In these circumstances, optimum therapeutic benefit would be obtained if the active agent was targeted to the appropriate site in…

Poly(etherurethane) elastomers are useful materials in medical devices because of their mechanical properties and biocompatibility. However, it is necessary to stabilize these elastomers against the oxidation of their ether soft segments. Synthetic antioxidants such as Santowhite and Irganox are often satisfactory; ho…

A series of Pd–Cu/KL zeolites with varying Pd : Cu ratios have been studied by a combination of FTIR and XANES. XANES indicates that only one PdCu alloy is formed for all samples and that the bulk of the alloy is not modified by extended periods under CO/H2at elevated temperatures. A combination of low temperature ads…

Abstract From neutron powder diffraction intensities it is often problematic to distinguish between centrosymmetry and non-centrosymmetry. X-ray single crystal diffraction may be more accurate. In this paper we compare refinement results of crystal structures on the basis of neutron powder data of orthorhombic NdGaO 3…

In water, the inertial collapse of a bubble is more violent after expansion by a negative acoustic pressure pulse than when directly compressed by a positive pulse of equal amplitude and duration. In tissues, gas bodies may be limited in their ability to expand and, therefore, the relatively strong effectiveness of ne…

The effect of various degrees of deformation was investigated at specific locations in the stress-strain curve under compression on the corrosion resistance of a wrought Ni-Ti alloy with a martensite to austenite transformation peak of 110 degrees C. Two metallurgical conditions were evaluated: 30% cold drawn and anne…

The water absorption properties of a PE-CVD (plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition) fluorine-doped SiO 2 film with a low dielectric constant were studied. It was concluded that highly stable F-doped SiO 2 film was obtained at F contents from 2.0% to 4.2% (3.2≤ k ≤3.6) using high-density plasma CVD. However, at F c…

The stability of the perovskite phase was studied as a function of sintering temperature. Dielectric, piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties of relaxor ferroelectric in the (1 – x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 solid solution series have been investigated. An important contribution to the dielectric, pyroelectric and pie…

A direct imaging system is introduced to study the oscillations of microbubbles acoustically levitated in water. The bubble is illuminated with a light emitting diode (LED) which is strobed at a frequency different from the driving sound field. This technique slows the moving image of the bubble, allowing one to obser…

The molecular dynamics of supercooled liquids confined to the mesopores of sol-gel glasses are interpreted in terms of the spatial competition between the average length scale of cooperativity assumed to increase with time and the geometrical confinement on scales between 2.5 and 7.5 nm. Opposed to relating the fast a…
