Nanoparticle-Mediated Controlled Myocardial Drug Delivery: A New Treatment for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy
(2020-09-04)Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disease of the sarcomere, resulting in overgrowth of the septum that separates the left and right ventricles. HCM can affect as many as 1/200 people, making it the most common ... -
NANOPARTICLES FOR GENE THERAPY AND PROTEIN DELIVERY TO INDUCE ANGIOGENESIS AS AN ALTERNATIVE TREATMENT FOR PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL DISEASE
(2018-08-21)Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is defined as a slow, progressive disorder of the lower extremity arterial vessels characterized by chronic narrowing that often results in occlusion and is associated with loss of functional ... -
NANOPETROPHYSICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF THE UPPER MANCOS SHALE IN THE SAN JUAN BASIN, NEW MEXICO, U.S.A.
(2022-09-01)The San Juan Basin is no stranger to oil and gas production and the Mancos Shale is one of the formations of the basin that had been producing petroleum since the early 1920’s as conventional, and recently as, unconventional ... -
Nanopetrophysical Characterization of the Wolfcamp A Shale Formation in the Permian Basin of Southeastern New Mexico, U.S.A.
(2019-12-05)The Permian Basin has been producing oil and gas for over a century, but the production has increased rapidly in recent years due to new completion methods such as hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling. The Wolfcamp ... -
Nanopetrophysics Characterization Of The Bakken Formation, Williston Basin, North Dakota, USA
The recent oil boom in the US has been attributed to the result of hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling of shale plays. However despite this boom, production and maximum recovery is still limited to be only few ... -
Nanopetrophysics Characterization of the Mancos Shale Formation in the San Juan Basin of northwestern New Mexico, U.S.A.
(2017-12-01)The Mancos Shale of the San Juan Basin is no stranger to the drilling of oil and gas, but traditional exploration within the region has predominantly been limited to the use of conventional vertical wells. Due to the recent ... -
Nanopetrophysics of the Niobrara Formation in Berthoud State #3 Well
(2016-12-08)The advent of new drilling and completion technologies over the past two decades has made unconventional shale reservoirs the focus of much of the oil and gas exploration and production throughout the United States. Despite ... -
NANOPETROPHYSICS OF THE UTICA SHALE, APPALACHIAN BASIN, OHIO, USA
(University of Texas at Arlington Libraries, 2015-05)The introduction of horizontal drilling combined with the ability to perform multiple-stage hydraulic fracture treatment has enabled the oil and gas industry to explore previously un-exploitable source formations, where ... -
