Formulation of best-fit hydrophile/lipophile balance-dielectric permittivity demulsifiers for treatment of crude oil emulsions by C.M. Ojinnaka, J.A. Ajienka, O.J. Abayeh, L.C. Osuji, R.U. Duru

“…The presence of water in crude oil causes corrosion, lowers capacity utilization of production and processing plant parts and pipelines, reduces oil recovery and increases the oil content of the effluent water. The stabilizing factors of crude oil emulsions vary from one oil field to the other and with time in the same well as co-produced water increases, or after a well treatment and Enhanced Oil Recovery Operations (EOR). …”

Microvesicles produced by natural killer cells of the NK-92 cell line affect the phenotype and functions of endothelial cells of the EA.Hy926 cell line by K. L. Markova, V. A. Mikhailova, A. V. Korenevsky, Yu. P. Milyutina, V. V. Rodygina, E. P. Aleksandrova, A. S. Markov, O. A. Balabas, S. A. Selkov, D. I. Sokolov

“…The results revealed significant differences in the proteomic profiles of cells of the NK-92 cell line and their MV product. Contact between ECs and MVs derived from cells of the NK-92 cell line is accompanied by the following events: a) expression of granzyme B in ECs, b) activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3, with partial EC death, c) appearance of the panleukocyte marker CD45 on ECs, d) decrease in CD105 expression, and increase in CD34 and CD54 expression, and e) inhibition of EC migration. …”
