Abstract:

Background: Since the ancient times, there has been awareness among people regarding the use of plants for the essential needs of a healthy and beautiful skin. Cosmetics are the products used to clean, beautify and promote attractive appearance. Cosmetics designed via incorporating natural sources such as herbs have been proven very fulfilling, in coping up with the present needs of different skin types. Objective: As due to increased pollution, allergy, microbes etc, human skin has become more sensitive and prone to faster aging. An attempt has been made to synthesize a pack ideal for all skin types. After the synthesis, all the parameters have been calculated in order to meet up the quality standards. Materials and Methods: The constituents were extracted from herbal ingredients such as Multani mitti, green tea, saffron, gram flour, turmeric, shwet chandan and milk powder. They were purchased from the local area and were dried separately, grinded, passed through sieve no 40, mixed homogenously and then evaluated for parameters including organoleptic, physicochemical, rheological features, phytochemical, stability, and irritancy examination. Results: The dried powders of combined pack showed good flow property which is suitable for a face pack. Organoleptic evaluation showed that the pack is smooth and pleasant smelling powder. Rheological findings justified the flow properties of the pack as it was found to be free flowing and non-sticky in nature. The results proved that the formulation was stable on all aspects. Irritancy test showed the negative. Stability tests performed revealed the inert nature of the pack. Conclusion: Thus, in the present work, we formulated a pack, which can be easily made with the easily available ingredients. It showed all the benefits of a face pack and further optimization studies are required on its various parameters to find its useful benefits on the human beings.

Abstract:

In this study, hydrogen generation powder samples were prepared using zinc carbonate as a precursor, at a temperature varying from 400 to 700 °C in H2 atmosphere, and were characterized in terms of antioxidant activity. The concentration of dissolved hydrogen obtained by the powder samples was measured using a dissolved hydrogen meter as a function of time. In addition, the antioxidant activity of the samples was evaluated based on the Oyaizu’s method, removal rate of ·OH radicals, and ferric reducing antioxidant power. Finally, the hydrogen mask pack was fabricated using the hydrogen generation powder sample and gel-type emulsion. In the clinical test on the mask pack, the effect of the mask on skin aging was characterized and compared to that of a commercial sample. The skin densities of the participants in the experimental group and the control group increased by 18.41% and 9.93% after 4 weeks, respectively. The improved skin density of the participants who used the hydrogen mask pack in the experimental group, might be attributed to the recovery effect of the hydrogen molecule in the mask pack on the denatured thick skin layer.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective The aim of the study reported here was to determine the effect of cryotherapy on the caudal thigh muscles of dogs. We hypothesized that temperature changes would be greatest in superficial tissues and decrease with tissue depth. Study Design Eight mixed-breed dogs (mean weight 21.2 kg, mean age 3.3 years) were studied. Temperature was measured at the skin surface and at depths of 1.0 and 3.0 cm below the skin using needle thermistor probes that were inserted beneath the site of cold pack application. Treatment consisted of a standard 1.0°C cold pack applied for 20 minutes. Temperature was recorded every minute for the 20 minute cold pack treatment, and for 80 minutes following treatment. Results Cutaneous temperatures significantly decreased (p < 0.01), with rapid rewarming of the skin following cold pack removal. Tissue cooling was less profound with increasing tissue depths, but was still significant (p < 0.05). There was no significant difference in muscle temperature between haired and clipped limbs. Conclusion A single application of a cold pack to the caudal thigh muscles of dogs for 20 minutes resulted in significant temperature reduction at all tissue depths (p < 0.05). This decrease persisted for ∼60 minutes. The presence of hair did not have a significant effect on muscle cooling (p > 0.05).

Abstract:

Lens and skin fluorescence are related to the systemic accumulation of advanced glycation end products, which is accelerated in diabetes. We have examined lens fluorescence and skin fluorescence in healthy adult twins. The study enrolled twins aged median 59 years from a national population-based registry. Diabetic individuals were excluded from analysis. The interrelatedness between fluorescence parameters and relations between fluorescence and age, current HbA1c and smoking pack years were examined using correlation tests and mixed model linear regression analyses. Broad-sense heritability was analyzed and compared for lens fluorescence, skin fluorescence and HbA1c. Lens fluorescence and skin fluorescence were crudely interrelated (R = 0.38). In linear regression analyses, age explained a larger fraction of the variance in lens fluorescence (R2 = 32%) than in skin fluorescence (R2 = 20%), whereas HbA1c explained smaller variance fractions (R2 = 3% and 8%, respectively) followed by smoking pack years (4% and 3%, respectively). In multivariate analyses, age, HbA1c and smoking pack years combined explained more of the variance in lens fluorescence (R2 = 35%) than in skin fluorescence (R2 = 21%), but the influence of HbA1c on lens fluorescence was not statistically significant (p = .2). Age-adjusted broad-sense heritability was 85% for lens fluorescence, 53% for skin fluorescence and 71% for HbA1c in best fitting heritability models. Both fluorescence parameters increased with age, current glycemia and cumulative smoking. Lens fluorescence was found to be a predominantly heritable trait, whereas skin fluorescence was more influenced by environmental factors and closer related to current glycemia. The results suggest that skin fluorophores have a faster turn-over than lens fluorophores.

Abstract:

Abstract We describe a novel ion-selective electrode (ISE) system that can be used in the Abbott Vision analyzer. A reusable sensor pack and a disposable test pack have been miniaturized to approximately the size and weight of a conventional Vision test pack, thus eliminating the need for a separate ISE module. The sensor pack contains a fluid path, battery-powered electronics, and screw-in electrodes. The test pack contains separate chambers and fluid channels for a blood specimen and two aqueous calibrators. During a run, plasma is separated from blood cells and is moved sequentially, along with the two calibrators, into and out of the sensor pack by centrifugal force. Each run includes checks for electromechanical integrity, fluid contamination, calibration slope and intercept, and specimen hemolysis. The system operates with CVs of less than 2% and gives results that correlate well with those by flame photometry and direct ISE methods. Either skin-puncture or venipuncture whole blood can be assayed, as well as serum or plasma.

Abstract:

In this interview, Cynthia Hammond sits down with Marc Lafrance in order to discuss the 30-year sketching practice that led to her exhibition, Drawings for a Thicker Skin, in 2012. In this practice, Hammond made small, quick drawings of the clothes she would need for trips or key professional events. As she explains, the drawings were not just essential to knowing what to pack; they were essential to being able to pack. While she never conceived of the practice as art, when invited to exhibit the drawings she found a way to relate this idiosyncratic and private practice to a larger set of ontological concerns. Clothing as a second skin is the key idea here, as Hammond and Lafrance explore what it means to navigate identity, idealized self-image, professional ‘passing’ and the skin ego.

Abstract:

<p>This thesis project has been written and accomplished in cooperation with HABO AB. The objective of the project was to develop a standard stated packaging system. The background to this is that HABO is not pleased with the system currently in use. The system which HABO is currently using consists of to many sizes. The largest benefit of a standard stated system is that it becomes much easier to organize the packaging with the aid of a computer program. If one manages to standardize the packaging system if will be much easier to calculate how much space that is required for the products in the store. It also enables HABO to sell pre defined product groups.</p><p>The basic condition for the system is that it should be compatible with Hestra wall panels and store equipment. The store equipment proved to be very determining during the project. Due to its design the number of possible variations of sizes decreased considerably.</p><p>Much of the work has been simulated in a computer model which has been constructed in ProEngineer. With aid of the model suitable packaging sizes could be tested on Hestras wall panels.</p><p>The work resulted in a system with three different width sizes (74, 116 and 158 mm), compared to the present five. The number of lengths was set to four (118, 182, 246 and 374 mm) in comparison with today where the length is decided for each product individually. In order for the system to work properly it is crucial the HABOs suppliers can guarantee a specified length for all of the different packaging sizes.</p><p>The basic principle is that both SB-pack and Skin-pack should be possible to combine to achieve the most effective system.</p><p>A couple of improvements were also considered. Standard setting of the width proved to be the hardest challenge. Therefore an alternative could be to use a gliding spear instead of Hestras traditional panel. This allows the spear to be continuously variable. This allows more freedom when it comes to designing the packaging. Regarding different types of packaging SB-pack with long back or colored plastic bag is preferred instead of the traditional SB-pack. The products are displayed in a better fashion and it gives a better impression.</p>

Abstract:

This chapter covers that dimension of Jewish therapeutic practices which encompassed daily and annual rites, rituals, and customs. Among the customs and traditions mentioned in the chapter is the interesting folk rite Pesach, which involved young men roaming the streets of their town looking for fellow residents with skin diseases. Anyone who answered to the description would be presented with a train ticket accompanied by the recommendation that they pack their bags quickly because the train to Egypt would not be waiting long. The chapter also talks about the Seder meal. Certain traditions connected with the Seder were interpreted specifically as prophylactic. It also talks about the cycle of autumn festivals which is of great importance for matters of health. It mentions the Days of Awe and the widespread custom of measuring the cemetery and graves with string to be later used to make wicks for candles. It also talks about the solemn significance and the Four species, a bundle composed of four types of plant: a date palm frond (lulav), three myrtle branches, and two willow branches, all bound up with palm rings, and an etrog (citron). The chapter discusses human life, understood by traditional Jewish society as being divided into successive stages, each of which was marked by important ritual events. It looks at the health-related justifications for the rituals that God-fearing Jews were required to perform, and it emphasizes the ubiquity in Jewish folk medicine of elements of the sabbath and festival liturgy, and of objects used in religious rites.

Abstract:

Abstract Tight gas/tight oil reservoirs require fracture stimulation to achieve commercial rates of hydrocarbons. Fracturing operations involve pumping considerable volumes of proppant and water/gel into the reservoir. Rapid cleanup of fracturing fluids and residual proppant ensures the desired goals of the stimulation operations are achieved: enhancing the flow capacity of the well while minimizing the risk of proppant damage to surface equipment. It is normal for significant quantities of proppant and frac fluid to flow back after opening the well for cleanup. Frac fluid often contains broken cross-linked gel, which must be flowed back to ensure cleanup of the fracture and minimize plugging of the fracture face and the proppant pack. In North America, it is not unusual for frac fluid recovery to be only a small fraction of the amount of injected fluid. Frac fluid recovery of 5 to 30 percent is not unusual and 50 percent is often considered excellent. In the Sultanate of Oman, BP is currently achieving 50 to 90 percent frac fluid recovery, while pressure transient analysis indicates post-frac skin damage figures of -6 or better, indicating excellent stimulation effectiveness. Critically, no proppant has flowed through to the surface facility. These cleanup procedures have been conducted in wells with a variety of frac types including 450,000 to 1,000,000 lb cross-linked gel fracs and multiple 17,000 bbl slick water fracs. An analysis of the procedures used to achieve these results will be presented in this paper. It indicates that allowing the frac to close and opening the well on a moderate choke, with re-direction of the post-frac fluid through effective sand management systems, followed by flowing the well at a managed drawdown against the reservoir has achieved excellent results. These results underpinned the decision to move forward in this multi-billion dollar development project.

Abstract:

Abstract The ExxonMobil Wells organization, along with Hess Guyana Exploration Limited and CNOOC Petroleum Guyana Limited, executed a successful multi-rig campaign to achieve First Oil on the Liza Phase 1 project ahead of schedule, utilizing advanced deepwater completion technologies to deliver highly productive wells. Considering the sizable resource offshore Guyana, strategic partnerships have been established with drilling contractors and other service providers to build economies-of-scale. ExxonMobil's prior global experience is actively being leveraged in rig selection and well design. Standardization, both above and below the rotary, has allowed for increased flexibility on current and future well execution, maintaining optionality to rapidly adjust project pace. A deliberate contracting strategy with established rig providers has also opened access to top tier rigs with reduced procurement timelines, providing flexibility with total rig count and capability. With an integrated team approach focused on simulataneous operations (SIMOPS) mitigation, rig movements have been optimized within the field to prioritize the highest value work and streamline project delivery. Effective schedule integration with multiple drilling rigs and installation vessels has reduced SIMOPS downtime during Phase 1 project execution. Additionally, batch rig operations have allowed the team to capitalize on operational efficiencies. A combination of these factors led to on-time well delivery and helped the project achieve aggressive First Oil milestones. The team has implemented innovative technologies to maximize value and well reliability, including the following: integrated geosteering workflows, with Azimuthal Ultra-Deep Resistivity (AUDR), enabling maximum reservoir penetrations; a suite of low equivalent circulating density (ECD) drilling fluids that enable the drilling of narrow-margin, highly deviated wells; ExxonMobil's patented NAFPac™ openhole gravel pack technology and autonomous inflow control devices (AICDs) on stand-alone-screen completions to increase well life and reliability; and remotely operated vehicle (ROV) based tree intervention control systems and ROV actuated suspension valves allowing for offline installation of subsea trees. Additionally, the team implemented the first floating application of the NOVOS™ automated slip-to-slip drilling system. NOVOS™ has been coupled with an automated drilling advisory system (AutoDAS) and data analytics environments for continuous performance improvement. The production wells that were delivered for Liza Phase 1 have highly productive, low-skin completions averaging over 900 m in length and production rates in excess of 30 kbd/well. Advancements in completion technology and efficiency proven on Liza Phase 1 are being extended into Phase 2 development and beyond, providing additional reservoir management capability. Lastly, ExxonMobil's commitment to Guyana extends to its people. Guyanese personnel have benefitted from significant training provided by ExxonMobil and sub-contractors, and Guyanese Nationals represented approximately 40% of the workforce involved in Wells-related activities at the end of 2020.
