    Adsorption Of Uranium from Phosphoric acid and Waste Water with Microcapsules Contains Selective Extractants

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Tayebi, Ahmad (Author) ; Ghofrani, Mohammad Bagher (Supervisor) ; Khanchi, Alireza (Supervisor) ; Outokesh, Mohammad (Co-Advisor)
    Abstract
    Uptake characteristics of alginate microcapsules containing D2EHPA/TOPO for adsorption of uranium from industrial effluent were examined using batch, stirred and column method .stable alginate microcapsules in dried form was developed by immobilizing of D2EHPA/TOPO in porous matrix of calcium alginate. Characteristics of microcapsules were carrying out by destructive chemical analysis, BET, SEM and TG .the synthesized microcapsules showed a good column properties and high selectivity and reusability. In addition, isotherm adsorption of calcium alginate and microcapsules were fitted with frendlich's equation .the microcapsules also demonstrated that, the uptake percentage was constantly high...

    Abstract
    Co-culture of different cells is necessary for cancer spheroid formation in preclinical drug tests. It is possible to produce thousands of micro-droplets containing different cells, i.e. microcapsules, in a short time, using droplet microfluidics. However the homogeneity of the cell numbers in the droplets has remained as an unsolved problem.Despite the large amount of experimental efforts to reduce the number of undesirable microcapsules, no one tried to utilize the ease of computer aided simulation for investigating different parameters. In this study, we develop a novel method for capturing cell encapsulation using CFD simulations. The effect of the cell suspension inhomogeneity and... 

    Design, Fabrication and Evaluation of Polymeric Microcapsules Containing Cells to Use in Cell Therapy in Heart

    Abstract
    Because of the inability of conventional methods to regenerate the infarcted part of the heart, regenerative medicine based on using scaffolds and hydrogels incorporation with cells and biological factors emerges as a promising approach. Micro-structures, especially hollow microcapsules created by the microfluidic system, has received a great deal of attention due to their inspired biomimetic structures, providing complete coverage cells, and preventing an immune response, consequently. This study aimed to use a microfluidic system to fabricate hollow microcapsules and investigate the behavior of rat cardiomyoblast cells (H9C2) along with exosomes within these structures. These structures'... 

    Investigation on Insulin Release from Microcapsules Containing Beta Cell

    Abstract
    Type 1 diabetes, formerly known as insulin-dependent diabetes, may present at any age, but is the most common type of diabetes affecting children and adolescents. People with type 1 diabetes do not produce enough insulin. This type accounts for 5-10% of all types of diabetes. In this type of diabetes, beta cell destruction occurs in the pancreas. In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas does not secrete any insulin; insulin is a hormone that enables the body to convert glucose in food into energy. If sugar in the blood cannot enter the cells, it accumulates in the arteries and results in high blood sugar. High blood sugar over time can have irreversible effects on various parts of the body.
