Solvents play an important role in crystallization, a commonly used separation and purification technique in the pharmaceutical, chemical and food industries. They affect crystal properties such as particle size distribution, ...

Performing multistep microchemical synthesis requires many techniques from combining micromixers in series to the development of continuous microfluidic separation tools. Safety, high heat and mass transfer rates, and cost ...

The basic equations embodying macroscopic conservation and balance statements applicable to polarizable media are derived phenomenologically. These general balance statements are then applied to the particular case of ...

In this work, we are motivated by the need to produce particles of well-controlled size, shape and morphology for general application in catalysis, environmental remediation, nanomedicine, pharmaceuticals, the development ...

Uncontrolled bleeding and infection are leading causes of patient morbidity and mortality following traumatic injury. Traditional pressure based methods of hemorrhage management are not suitable for incompressible or complex ...

Polyelectrolyte multilayered (PEM) coatings were fabricated to incorporate and release the small, hydrophilic antibiotic gentamicin from implant surfaces for infection control. The use of a cationic hydrolytically cleavable ...

Magnetic particles have been used for many applications demanding a broad range of particles morphologies and chemistries. Superparamagnetism is advantageous over ferromagnetism because it enables us to control and recover ...
