A new study published in the Feb. 2012 issue of Anesthesiology found that the type of lipid emulsion used to reverse toxicity of local anesthetics may change the effectiveness of the reversal, ...

As in the previous communications1, we refer to any particle with a mass intermediate between that of a proton and an electron as a meson. It may be emphasized that, in using this term, we do not ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers led by Lucio Isa, Professor of Interfaces, Soft Matter and Assembly at ETH Zurich's Department of Materials, have created a new type of silica particle able to stabilise ...

Emulsions are two-phase systems consisting of a dispersed phase (the droplets or particles) and a continuous phase (liquid diluent like water). In the dispersed phase, droplet size is critically ...

An emulsion is a two-phase system formed by droplets dispersed in another non-miscible liquid. Many emulsions consist of a hydrophobic ‘oily’ phase dispersed in a continuous aqueous phase.

Particular types of samples, such as those containing detergent, may create emulsions when doing an oil-in-water extraction into a solvent. The boundary between the sample and the solvent will have an ...

CLINICIANS have long been interested in the adequate nutrition of their patients. Illnesses involve the whole patient rather than isolated systems, and general nonspecific therapeutic measures must ...
