Demixing of colloid-polymer mixtures in poor solvents
, 2002 The influence of poor solvent quality on fluid demixing of a model mixture of colloids and nonadsorbing polymers is investigated using density functional theory.

Optimisation of solvent replacement procedures according to economic and environmental criteria in pharmaceutical industry [PDF]
, 2006 During pharmaceutical syntheses, the reaction solvent has often to be switched off from one reaction step to the following one. Because of the standard industrial practices, solvent replacement generally constitutes a slow and high solvent-consuming ...

Microscopic theory of solvent mediated long range forces: influence of wetting [PDF]
, 2002 We show that a general density functional approach for calculating the force between two big particles immersed in a solvent of smaller ones can describe systems that exhibit fluid-fluid phase separation: the theory captures effects of strong adsorption (

Solute Effects on the Helix-Coil Transition [PDF]
, 2002 We discuss the effects of the solvent composition on the helix-coil transition of a polypeptide chain. We use a simple model to demonstrate that improving the hydrogen-bonding ability of the solvent can make the transition less cooperative, without ...

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...
