Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) is an ulcerative skin parasitic disease common in people living in tropical regions and travelers(1) . Lesions characteristics (e.g., self-healing and treatment response) are extremely variable. ...

A novel ionic material from thiophene and bromobutane was synthesized using ultrasound assistance as an alternative energy source. The optimal sonochemical reaction was carried out at 185 W, 20% duty cycle, 60 min in an ...

Ultrasound images are widely used for medical diagnosis and for Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) in the industry. Among alternative imaging methods there are the Phased Array techniques, which allow processing ultrasound ...

The detection of ultrasound via optical resonators is conventionally performed by tuning a continuous-wave (CW) laser to the linear slope of the resonance and monitoring the intensity modulation at the resonator output. ...

Various novel techniques are proposed to improve process efficiency, quality, and safety of fermented food products. Ultrasound and pulsed electric field (PEF) are versatile technologies that can be employed in conjunction ...

Hollow poly(Lactic Acid) (PLA) microcapsules were fabricated using the bubble template method. In this method, microbubbles nucleated inside droplets of a dichloromethane solution of PLA which were located in a continuous ...

In this paper the application of ultrasound was investigated as a method for improving mass transfer during the first stage of a process of osmosis combined with dehydration drying to obtain grapes reduced in high calorie ...

A growing interest in green bio-refining technology using ultrasound to extract high-added value compounds has been observed in the last decades. Therefore, it is of critical importance to consider the impact of the ...
