Based on the pressure and impulse of the incident blast wave, the maximum velocity can be calculated of a human body during transportation by the explosion wind. Figure C-4 shows the impact velocity for the lethality criterion for whole body impact as a function of side-on overpressure and impulse... 

Catalyst circulation is like blood circulation to the human body. Without proper catalyst circulation, the unit is dead. Troubleshooting circulation problems requires a good understanding of the pressure balance around the reactor-regenerator circuit and the factors affecting catalyst fluidization. The fundamentals of fluidization and catalyst circulation are discussed in Chapter 5. 

Nitric oxide (NO) is a minor but villainous component of the atmosphere. It is involved in the formation of both smog (Chapter 11) and acid rain (Chapter 14). You may be surprised to learn that small amounts of NO are also produced in the human body, where it has a generally beneficial effect. In particular, it has the ability to dilate blood vessels, lowering blood pressure and reducing the likelihood of strokes or heart attacks. Beyond that, NO is effective in treating what television commercials refer to as erectile dysfunction it increases blood flow to the penis. 

Osmotic pressure plays an important role in biological chemistry because the cells of the human body are encased in semipermeable membranes and bathed in body fluids. Under normal physiological conditions, the body fluid outside the cells has the same total solute molarity as the fluid inside the cells, and there is no net osmosis across cell membranes. Solutions with the same solute molarity are called isotonic solutions. 

Although the restrictions of constant T and P are stringent, they apply to many important chemical processes, including reactions that occur in the human body, which has a nearly constant temperature of 37 °C and nearly constant pressure of 1 bar. Any biochemical reaction that occurs in the body occurs under conditions in which the immediate surroundings are at constant T and P. Figure 14-16 shows three examples of systems at constant T and P. 

Physiology is the study of the functions of the human body. In other words, the mechanisms by which the various organs and tissues carry out their specific activities are considered. Emphasis is often placed on the processes that control and regulate these functions. In order for the body to function optimally, conditions within the body, referred to as the internal environment, must be very carefully regulated. Therefore, many important variables, such as body temperature, blood pressure, blood glucose, oxygen and carbon dioxide content of the blood, as well as electrolyte balance, are actively maintained within narrow physiological limits. 

Nutritional understanding of the effect of fats in the diet has made considerable progress.26-30 It was understood that saturated fats (see Chapter 3, Section 3.8) were the least beneficial as they raised serum cholesterol. High serum cholesterol is now associated with heart attacks and strokes. There was for this reason pressure over the cholesterol content of foods. This pressure has now been relieved since it appears that dietary cholesterol is not a particularly serious issue. The human body makes cholesterol, so dietary cholesterol does not necessarily affect serum cholesterol level as dietary intake can be compensated for by reduced cholesterol synthesis. 

Since the discovery that norepinephrine release at the adrenergic nerve terminal is the mechanism whereby the human body maintains sympathetic tone, medicinal scientists have searched for agents which reduce sympathetic tone through interference with norepinephrine peripherally. Reduction of the effect of norepinephrine should lead to a lowering of blood pressure which might be achieved in the following ways ... 

With very large detonations (not yet within the scope of fireworks) the residual high pressure may be experienced by the human body as airblast, while the higher of the superposed frequencies (>20Hz) are audible as noise, where the human auditory response commonly falls between about 20 and 20,000 Hz. 

The spread mixed lipid monolayer studies provide information about the packing and orientation of such molecules at the water interface. These interfacial characteristics affect many other systems. For instance, mixed surfactants are used in froth flotation. The monolayer surface pressure of a pure surfactant is measured after the injection of the second surfactant. From the change in n, the interaction mechanism can be measured. The monolayer method has also been used as a model biological membrane system. In the latter BLM, lipids are found to be mixed with other lipidlike molecules (such as cholesterol). Hence, mixed monolayers of lipids + cholesterol have been found to provide much useful information on BLM. The most important BLM and temperature melting phenomena is the human body temperature regulation. Normal body temperature is 37°C (98°F), at which all BLM function efficiently. 

A dose of 1 at 30 mg/kg increased the effects of intravenous doses of epinephrine at 5 g/kg and of dl-noreplnephrine at 10 ug/kg on both blood flow and blood pressure. Intravenous phenoxybenzamine at 15 mg/kg plus tolazollne at 2 mg/kg prevented almost completely the actions of I on blood pressure and blood flow Intravenous reserpine at 2 mg/kg increased markedly the effects of I at 30 mg/kg on blood pressure and peripheral resistance, but converted the usual immediate, small, temporary increase in blood flow into an immediate, small, temporary decrease. These various responses would be expected from either a mild sympathomimetic amine or an inhibitor of the breakdown of endogenous catecholamines Indeed, I at 10 M, was found to inhibit the monoamlneoxldase of the rat s liver. If the dose of I used in these experiments were distributed into the same fraction of the body water as that estimated for the human body,the concentration in the plasma would be about 9 times that stated above as the effective concentration for inhibiting the mono amine oxIdase. It is possible that inhibition of monoamlneoxldase by I plays a part in inducing the effects of the oxime on blood vessels and blood pressure. It is possible also that I interferes with reuptake of catecholamines by nerve endings this possibility seems not to have been explored. 

Hydroxyapatite (HAP), with basically the same crystal structure as Ca-deficient, carbonate-containing hydroxyapatite, is compatible with and reactive in a live human body. However, sintered HAP prepared by treating fine HAP particles under elevated temperature and pressure has insufficient mechanical properties, in particular fracture toughness, which greatly limits its commercial applicability. It is rarely implanted alone. On the other hand, zirconia, particularly partially stabilized zirconia (PSZ),... 

Calculate the osmolar concentration and the osmotic pressure of the physiological sodium chloride solution (9gl NaCl aqueous solution). Note Its osmotic pressure should be almost equal to that of human body fluids (about 6.7 atm). 

Essential though sodium is to the normal functioning of the human body, there has been considerable concern over the last few years, about the amount of salt in the diet. This concern centers mainly on possible relationship between salt and hypertension (high blood pressure). 

Silicon micropumps offer major advantages in terms of system miniaturization and control over low flow rates with a stroke volume 160 nL.14 The micropump has the characteristics of very small in size, implantability in the human body, low flow rates (in the range of 10 pL/min), moderate pressure generation from the microactuator to move the drug, biocompatibility, and most important, a reliable design for safe operation. The implantable device is particularly suitable (over the injectable drug delivery systems) for patients with Parkinson s disease, Alzhiemer s disease, diabetes, and cancer, as well as chronically ill patients, because the catheter that is attached to the device can transport drug to the required site. 

CB1 and CB2 can be found throughout the human body hence, there are a variety of ways that cannabinoids can physically and psychologically affect the body s systems. As an example, the presence of CB1 receptors in the eye may explain how marijuana eases glaucoma and relieves intraocular pressure. Other research indicates that THC can block receptors in the brain and body to produce dizziness, dry mouth, and altered depth perception— all common effects of marijuana use. There appears to be an... 

To understand any extraction technique it is first necessary to discuss some underlying principles that govern all extraction procedures. The chemical properties of the analyte are important to an extraction, as are the properties of the liquid medium in which it is dissolved and the gaseous, liquid, supercritical fluid, or solid extractant used to effect a separation. Of all the relevant solute properties, five chemical properties are fundamental to understanding extraction theory vapor pressure, solubility, molecular weight, hydrophobicity, and acid dissociation. These essential properties determine the transport of chemicals in the human body, the transport of chemicals in the air water-soil environmental compartments, and the transport between immiscible phases during analytical extraction. 

The production of many silicone compounds makes use of substances which have a harmful effect on human body technological processes are often carried out at high temperatures and pressures. Therefore, safety measures are especially important. 

The chemicals in epoxy adhesive systems can affect human health when they come into contact with the skin or if they evaporate and form a mist or vapor in the air. The main effects of overexposure are irritation of the eyes, nose, throat, and skin skin allergies and asthma. The solvent additives and other high-vapor-pressure materials can cause other effects such has headaches, dizziness, and confusion. The effects of these chemicals on the various parts of the human body are summarized below.2... 

Nitric oxide, a precursor of nitrogen dioxide, occurs naturally in the human body, where it acts as endothelial derived relaxing factor (EDRF), a neurotransmitter, and in unidentified ways in the nose, sinuses, and lower airways. Up to 15 ppm can be found normally in the nose and sinuses (DuBois et al. 1998). The substrate is 1-arginine, and the enzymes consist of different forms of nitric oxide synthase, which turn arginine into citrulline. Inhaled nitric oxide gas is used at concentrations of up to 50 ppm to decrease pulmonary arterial pressure. Nitric oxide reacts in tissues to form nitrites and nitrates.
