Permeation of polyethylene glycols across the tympanic membrane [PDF]
Localized and non-invasive delivery of therapeutics across barriers in the body is challenging. Examples include the flux of drugs across the tympanic membrane (TM) for the treatment of middle ear infections, and across the round window to treat inner ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Polyethylene Glycol-Grafted Photoreactive Polyethylene Glycols for Antibiofouling Applications. [PDF]
Notably, antibiofouling is an important and predominant technique adopted to improve the surfaces of biomaterials. In this study, polyethylene glycol-grafted polyethylene glycols bearing azidophenyl groups were synthesized and immobilized on polystyrene surfaces via photoirradiation.

Microbial Degradation of Polyethylene Glycols [PDF]
Three bacterial strains have been isolated that differ in their ability to degrade polyethylene glycols (PEGs). Strains R and O showed a marked preference for growth on the low and high molecular weight PEGs, respectively, while strain Z utilized mono‐ethylene glycol only. The partial degradation of PEG 200 by strains R and O was studied in some detail

Heat Transfer in Gold Interfaces Capped with Thiolated Polyethylene Glycol: A Molecular Dynamics Study [PDF]
Reverse non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (RNEMD) simulations were used to study heat transport in solvated gold interfaces which have been functionalized with a low molecular weight thiolated polyethylene glycol (PEG). The gold interfaces studied included (111), (110), and (100) facets, as well as spherical nanoparticles with radii of 10 and 20 {\AA}.

Investigation on Acoustic Parameters of Monosodium Glutamate Food Preservative in an Aqueous Solution of PolyEthylene Glycols (400 and 600) [PDF]
This paper aims to examine the impact of social media on mental health. Aqueous monosodium glutamate (MSG) was mixed with polyethylene (PEG400 and PEG600), and the resulting mixture was weighed and subjected to acoustic density and velocity measurements.

Effect of Polyethylene Glycols Dissolved in Aqueous Phase on the Extraction-Separation of La(III), Eu(III) and Er(III) Ions with Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric Acid [PDF]
The present work concerns on the investigation of the role of polyethylene glycols (PEGs) as masking agent for amelioration of extraction-separation of La(III), Eu(III) and Er(III) ions by the acidic extractant bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric acid (DEHPA ...

Liquid Transfer for Viscoelastic Solutions [PDF]
Viscoelastic liquid transfer from one surface to another is a process that finds applications in many technologies, primarily in printing. Here, cylindrical shaped capillary bridges pinned between two parallel disks are considered. Specifically, the effects of polymer mass fraction, solution viscosity, disk diameter, initial aspect ratio, final aspect ...
