Wound healing and hyper-hydration - a counter intuitive model [PDF]
Winters seminal work in the 1960s relating to providing an optimal level of moisture to aid wound healing (granulation and re-epithelialisation) has been the single most effective advance in wound care over many decades.

Investigation of Accelerated Hydration in Nanosilica Incorporated Tricalcium Silicate using THz Spectroscopy [PDF]
The incorporation of nanosilica in cementitious systems helps in accelerating the cement hydration process and early-stage formation of the main hydration product, that is, calcium silicate hydrate. Nanosilica reacts with the other key hydration product, calcium hydroxide to form additional calcium silicate hydrate. In this work, Terahertz spectroscopy

Change of Hydration Patterns upon RNA Melting Probed by Excitations of Phosphate Backbone Vibrations [PDF]
The water hydration shell has decisive impact on the structural and functional properties of RNA. Changes of RNA structure upon melting and in biochemical processes are accompanied by a change of hydration patterns, a process which is barely characterized.

2-Diphenylphosphanyl-4-pyridyl(dimethyl) amine as an effective ligand for the ruthenium(II) complex catalyzed homogeneous hydration of nitriles under neutral conditions [PDF]
New homogeneous catalyst comprised of [Ru(methallyl)(2)(cod)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene) (1) and 2-diphenylphosphanyl-4-pyridyl(dimethyl) amine (2) is shown to efficiently catalyze the hydration of various nitriles under neutral conditions. The hydration

Evaluation of air-displacement plethysmography in children aged 5-7 years using a three-component model of body composition [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to evaluate air-displacement plethysmography (ADP) in children aged 5-7 years. Body-composition measurements were obtained by ADP, H-2 dilution and anthropometry in twenty-eight children. Calculation of body volume by ADP

Large Slowdown of Water Dynamics at Stacked Phospholipid Membranes for Increasing Hydration Level: All-Atoms Molecular Dynamics [PDF]
Water hydrating phospholipid membranes determine their stability and function, as well as their interaction with other molecules. In this article we study, using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations, the rotational and translational dynamical properties of water molecules confined in stacked phospholipid membranes at different levels of hydration ...
