Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy for Studying Absorbable Hemostats

Nedvedova, Marie, Vojtech Kresalek, Zdenek Adamik, and Ivo Provazník.AbstractThis study deals with the kinetics of absorbable hemostats used for supporting the hemostasis and wound closure during surgical intervention. There are several types of hemostats of different...

A Review of Disintegration Mechanisms and Measurement Techniques

Markl, Daniel, and J. Axel Zeitler.AbstractPharmaceutical solid dosage forms (tablets or capsules) are the predominant form to administer active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) to the patient. Tablets are typically powder compacts consisting of several different...

Selectivity of Terahertz Gas-Phase Spectroscopy

Ryan M. Smith ; Mark A ArnoldAbstractAnalytical potential of terahertz (THz) spectroscopy is assessed by comparing selectivity for a set of eight environmentally important gases over THz and infrared (IR) optical frequencies. Selectivity coefficients are determined...

Terahertz Spectroscopy Applied For Investigation of Water Structure

Nikita Penkov ; Nikolay Shvirst ; Valery Alexandrovich Yashin ; Eugeny Eugenievich Fesenko (Jr.) ; Eugeny Eugenievich FesenkoAbstractThe absorption spectra of liquid water and various aqueous solutions were analyzed in a terahertz frequency domain (from 6 to 200 cm–1)...

Assessment of piezoelectric sensor adhesive bonding

T Wandowski ; J Moll ; P Malinowski ; S Opoka ; W OstachowiczAbstractPiezoelectric transducers are widely utilized in Structural Health Monitoring (SHM). They are used both in guided wave-based and electromechanical impedance-based methods. Transducer debonding or...
