NOVEL COMPOSITE MEMBRANES BASED ON CHITOSAN COPOLYMERS WITH POLYACRYLONITRILE AND POLYSTYRENE: PHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES AND APPLICATION FOR PERVAPORATION DEHYDRATION OF TETRAHYDROFURAN

Novel Composite Membranes Based on Chitosan Copolymers with Polyacrylonitrile and Polystyrene: Physicochemical Properties and Application for Pervaporation Dehydration of Tetrahydrofuran

Pervaporation has been applied for tetrahydrofuran (THF) dehydration with novel composite membranes advanced by a thin selective layer composed of chitosan (CS) modified by copolymerization with vinyl monomers, acrylonitrile (AN) and styrene, in order to improve the bar drain board chemical and mechanical stability of CS-based membranes.Composite m

Double-Needle Arthrocentesis with Viscosupplementation in Patients with Temporomandibular Joint Disc Displacement without Reduction

OBJECTIVES: Arthrocentesis is the simplest surgical intervention for the temporomandibular joint (TMJ).It can be performed on an outpatient basis at a low cost and with low cassis crista morbidity.The objective is to release the articular disc by disrupting the adhesion formed between its surfaces and the mandibular fossa through hydraulic pressure
