New Insight on improving foam stability and foam flooding using fly-ash in the presence of crude oil

One of the most important methods for increasing the oil recovery of petroleum reservoirs is gas injection. However, it will not result in good oil recovery in many cases due to a low volumetric sweep efficiency. Foam flooding emerged as…

NiONP-Induced Oxidative Stress and Mitochondrial Impairment in an In Vitro Pulmonary Vascular Cell Model Mimicking Endothelial Dysfunction

The development and use of nanomaterials, especially of nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiONPs), is expected to provide many benefits but also has raised concerns about the potential human health risks. Inhaled NPs are known to exert deleterious cardiovascular side effects, including…

NiONPs-induced alteration in calcium signaling and mitochondrial function in pulmonary artery endothelial cells involves oxidative stress and TRPV4 channels disruption

In New Caledonia, anthropic activities, such as mining, increase the natural erosion of soils in nickel mines, which in turn, releases nickel oxide nanoparticles (NiONPs) into the atmosphere. Pulmonary vascular endothelial cells represent one of the primary targets for inhaled…

Niosome nanocarrier enhances the ameliorating effects of myrtenol in the lungs of rats with experimental asthma

We assessed the anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-remodeling impacts of a synthesized myrtenol-loaded niosome in rats with allergic asthma. Forty-nine rats were divided into seven groups of control, vacant niosome (VN), Asthma, Asthma+VN, Asthma+SM (simple myrtenol), Asthma+NM (niosomal myrtenol, 8 mg/kg),…
