Advances and Challenges of Biodegradable Implant Materials with a Focus on Magnesium-Alloys and Bacterial Infections

Medical implants made of biodegradable materials could be advantageous for temporary applications, such Bedding as mechanical support during bone-healing or as vascular stents to keep blood vessels open.After completion of the healing process, the implant would disappear, avoiding long-term side effects or the need for surgical removal.Various corr

In situ hybridization of somatolactin transcripts in the pituitary glands from acclimatized carp (Cyprinus carpio)

We isolated and cloned a carp somatolactin SL DNA fragment, of which 78% of the nucleotides were identical to the corresponding salmon SL sequence.The results obtained upon Northern blot Square Roasting Tin hybridization of carp pituitary RNA allowed the identification of two transcripts as described for other fish.When the content of SL transcript

Novel hydrophilic and hydrophobic amorphous silica: Characterization and adsorption of aqueous phase organic compounds

Very few studies have investigated the Bedding adsorption performance of hydrophobic and hydrophilic silicas with dissolved organics in water, which is a required final step during produced water treatment.The cost of functionalization also hinders the use of hydrophobic materials as sorbents.Novel hydrophilic silicas, prepared at low temperature a
