Increasing the ejection efficiency and uniformity of nanofibers is the key to applications of electrospinning technology.In this work, a novel electrospinning spinneret with a sheath gas passageway is designed.The frictional resistance that stems from the sheath gas provides additional stretching and restriction forces on the jet.The sheath gas als

INTRODUCTION: Several factors including the parental literacy, illness, socioeconomic status, poor sanitation and hygienic practices affect the physical growth of children.The aim of this study was to determine the socio-demographic determinants of malnutrition among primary school aged children in Enugu, Nigeria.METHODS: a cross-sectional descript

ABSTRACT: Objectives: Vancomycin remains a first-line treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-mediated acute pulmonary exacerbations (APEs) in adult cystic fibrosis (CF) patients; however, optimal alternatives remain poorly defined.The aim of this study was to determine the safety and efficacy of ceftaroline for MRSA-mediat

Pluronic block copolymers have phase behavioural characteristics which are extensively studied for drug delivery applications.In this study, we explored hydrophilic pluronic turbo air m3f24-1 F108 (HLB = 27), hydrophobic pluronic L81 (HLB = 2) and their mixed micelles acting as solubilising mediums for model drug aceclofenac.The drug solubilisation
