Abstract Membrane distillation (MD) is a thermally driven membrane process using porous hydrophobic membranes. MD has been investigated as an alternative desalination technology due to its advantages over multi-stage flash (MSF) and reverse osmosis (RO). Nevertheless, it difficult design optimize the systems under various conditions, because both thermal hydrodynamic effects play important role. Therefore, this study focused on performance analysis of in different configurations. Direct...
Abstract Hypercoagulability is characterized by abnormal elevations of coagulation factor levels and increased thrombin generation potential. Prior studies demonstrated links between impaired glucose metabolism, endothelial dysfunction, hypercoagulability. However, the associations hypercoagulability incident type 2 diabetes as well its underlying mechanism remain unclear. We aimed to assess parameters including (F) VIII, FIX, FXI, fibrinogen, potential (lag time, endogenous [ETP], peak,...
This study investigated the protective effects of diallyl disulfide (DADS) against acetaminophen (AAP)-induced acute renal injury in male rats. We also DADS on kidney molecule-1 (KIM-1) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), which are novel biomarkers nephrotoxicity tissues, response to AAP treatment. The following four experimental groups were evaluated: (1) vehicle control, (2) (1,000 mg/kg), (3) AAP&DADS, (4) (50 mg/kg/day). treatment caused evidenced by increased serum...
Current evidence on the effects of coffee intake cardiovascular diseases is not consistent, in part contributed by genetic variability study subjects. While adenosine receptors (ADORAs) are involved caffeine signaling, it remains unknown how variations at ADORA loci correlate with diseases. The present examined associations dyslipidemia risk depending variants gene family. a population-based cohort 4898 Korean Consumption more than or equal to cup per day was associated lower females...
Recently three large meta-analyses of genome-wide association studies for venous thromboembolism (VTE) identified over 130 genetic variants. However, mechanisms by which newly and therefore underexplored VTE-associated variants influence VTE remain unclear. To elucidate the mechanism, we investigated between 61 levels coagulation factor (F) VIII, FIX, FXI, fibrinogen as well thrombin generation parameters (lag time, peak, endogenous potential, time-to-peak, velocity), are well-known...
Abstract Hybrid desalination systems combining both thermal and membrane processes are currently considered a viable alternative to conventional plants. Recently, an incorporation of forward osmosis (FO) with distillation (MD) has been as new hybrid technology. Nevertheless, few works have done design optimize these types systems. The focus this study was investigate FO–MD process in which MD is being used recover draw solutes product water from FO. Laboratory-scale for FO were developed...
Microvascular dysfunction is a growing determinant of sex differences in coronary heart disease (CHD). Dysregulation the coagulation system involved CHD pathogenesis and can be induced by endothelial glycocalyx (EG) perturbation. However, little known about link between EG function parameters population-based studies on specificity.We sought to examine relationship middle-aged Dutch population.Using baseline measurements 771 participants from Netherlands Epidemiology Obesity study (age, 56...
Abstract Reverse osmosis (RO) membrane process has been considered a promising technology for water treatment and desalination. However, it is difficult to predict the performance of pilot- or full-scale RO systems because numerous factors are involved in performance, including scaling, fouling, deterioration. This study was intended develop practical model analysis pilot-scale processes. A genetic programming (GP) technique applied correlate key operating parameters permeability...
Abstract Ultrafiltration (UF) membrane provides an effective means of removing particles and microbial contaminants by size exclusion with the requirement smaller footprints conventional pretreatment processes. Although a few works have been done to optimize UF modules systems for drinking water treatment bioreactor (MBR), little information is available on design seawater/brackish desalination. This study focuses hollow fiber processes in desalination plants. A theoretical model was...
Seawater desalination market after global economic crisis has been stalled due to the uncertainties and decreased demand in desalination. It is important review status of estimate appropriate share Forward osmosis-Reverse Osmosis (FO-RO) hybrid technology by figuring out outlook market. Main part will still be MENA (Middle East North Africa) near future fast population increase high dependency fossil fuel region. The for FO-RO technology, however, might smaller than conventional SWRO anyway...
This study endeavored to sustainably control aphids and anthracnose after spraying endophytic Isaria javanica pf185 under field conditions. Under two different tents; one batch of seedlings was sprayed with a 107 conidia/mL I. suspension; while another 0.05% Tween 80® in distilled water. Six leaf discs from the top; middle; bottom part plant canopy were weekly collected placed on moistened filter paper Petri dish for insecticidal antifungal bioassays against Myzus persicae Colletotrichum...
Wastewater reclamation is where wastewater from various sources purified so the water can be used by human consumption. Among many treatment options, membranes have gained an important place in reclamation. It allows production of high quality wastewater, with a small footprint and affordable energy Nevertheless, membrane fouling regarded as serious problem due to potential wastewater. In this study, we applied ultraviolet (UV) processes pretreatment for systems that are Low pressure UV...
