Ionomers are hydrophobic polymers that contain a small fraction of ionic groups. The ionic groups form multiplets or polar micro-domains in bulk, which confers the unique properties of crack and ...

A colloidal solution is a uniform dispersion of two different types of components—particles or droplets of one phase, the solute, in a second (typically liquid) phase, the solvent. Milk, a colloid of ...

Fluid resuscitation with colloid and crystalloid solutions is a ubiquitous intervention in acute medicine. The selection and use of resuscitation fluids is based on physiological principles, but ...

To answer your question more explicitly, there is no clear evidence on which to base the choice of intravenous fluid resuscitation agent in patients with septic shock. Colloids have physiologic ...

Researchers have developed a model system for so-called soft colloids. The model gives us a better understanding of correlations between the atomic structure of colloids and their perceptible material ...

Crystalloid vs Colloid: What's the 'Solution'? The first choice made when selecting a resuscitation fluid is whether to use a crystalloid or colloid solution. While there are really only 2 types of ...

(Nanowerk News) Extrusion-based 3D printing/bioprinting is a promising approach to generating patient-specific, tissue-engineered grafts. However, a major challenge in extrusion-based 3D printing and ...

A colloidal solution is a uniform dispersion of two completely different types of components—particles or droplets of one phase, called the solute, in a second, typically liquid, phase, called the ...
