perfluorocarbons

The oxygen-carrying potential of perfluorocarbons was first demonstrated during the 1960's.

Overall, she found, "the higher the perfluorocarbons, the earlier the menopause."

Of all the perfluorocarbons, perfluorodecalin has probably seen the most interest in medical applications.

Perfluorocarbons were identified as ideal materials, but at that point no method was available to produce them in any significant quantity.

Perfluorocarbons have a particularly high affinity for electrons, so are detected in low concentrations.

The use of perfluorocarbons in firefighting equipment is now banned, except for military and aviation uses.

The perfluorocarbons gases are strong greenhouse gases with a long lifetime.

Fluoroalkanes, commonly referred to as perfluorocarbons, are potent greenhouse gases.

Chip makers have said that by 2010 they will cut emissions of perfluorocarbons, another potent warming gas, 10 percent below 1995 levels.

The perfluorocarbons are inert chemicals that can hold large amounts of respiratory gasses.

Seven lambs put on respirators died almost immediately, while six out of seven given perfluorocarbons lived.

Replies: Bud, There has been marginal success with certain hyperoxygenated perfluorocarbons.

Examples of such greenhouse gases are methane, perfluorocarbons, and nitrous oxide.

Other gases with warming effects are methane, perfluorocarbons and nitrous oxide (laughing gas).

Companies like Alliance saturate the perfluorocarbons with oxygen in the way a sponge fills with water.

Cells in the body that need the oxygen pull it easily out of the perfluorocarbons as the compounds slip along in the bloodstream.

Others are hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons and sulfur hexachloride.

They include substances such as perfluorocarbons, synthetic- or modified-hemoglobins and liposome-encased hemoglobins (artificial red cells).

Fully fluorinated organic compounds, sometimes called perfluorocarbons or fluorocarbons, contain only carbon and fluorine.

The first is perfluorocarbons (PFC), chemical compounds which can carry and release oxygen.

In studies involving lambs, animals given perfluorocarbons had much less lung damage than those that breathed air, and the chemicals had no long-term side effects.

Perfluorocarbons are hydrocarbons in which hydrogen atoms have been replaced with fluorine (one common compound of this type is Teflon).

Moreover, the body's immune system tends to attack the emulsifying agents in which the perfluorocarbons are mixed, causing headaches, nausea and other side effects.

Fluorocarbons and especially perfluorocarbons are excellent substrate materials for the creation of superhydropbobic surfaces due to their extremely low surface energy.

Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) are the compounds consisting of fluorine and carbon.
