Long core flow experiment was conducted to study problems like excessive injection pressure and effective lag of oil wells during the polymer flooding in Honggang reservoir in Jilin oilfield. According to the changes in viscosity and hydrodynamic dimensions before and after polymer solution was injected into porous media, the compatibility of polymer hydrodynamic dimension and the pore throat size was studied in this experiment. On the basis of the median of radiusRof pore throats in rocks with different permeability, dynamic light scattering method (DLS) was adopted to measure the hydrodynamic size Rh of polymer solution with different molecular weights. The results state that three kinds of 1500 mg/L concentration polymer solution with 2000 × 104, 1500 × 104, and 1000 × 104molecular weight matched well with the pore throat in rocks with permeability of 300 mD, 180 mD, and 75 mD in sequence. In this case, the ratios of core pore throat radius median to the size of polymer molecular clewR/Rhare 6.16, 5.74, and 6.04. For Honggang oil reservoir in Jilin, when that ratio ranges from 5.5 to 6.0, the compatibility of polymer and the pore structure will be relatively better.

In order to explore the change laws of physical properties and pore throat radius of reservoir both before and after water flooding to guide the oilfield in-depth fluid diversion, the reservoir properties are analyzed on the basis of core data of early exploratory well and inspection well in the middle and later stages of oilfield development. The theory of reservoir geology and development geology is used to study the change laws of reservoir properties both before and after water flooding in May 20th Development Area of Liaohe oilfield. The research result indicates that reservoir physical properties and pore throat radius have changed in the different period and different microfacies types of sand body [1-3].The permeability is changed far outweigh porosity in the physical properties of reservoir. And with the increase of time, the biggest change is the porosity and permeability of distributary channel, the next are margin of channels, mouth bar. The thin layer of channels and distal bar of physical properties have changed lesser or not. The pore throat radius has declined following distributary channel, mouth bar, thin layer of channels and distal bar in the sedimentary microfacies [4-5].The study results are helpful for the establishment of production measures at the later stage of oilfield development.

Abstract For sandstone reservoirs with extra-low permeability, CO2 injection is regarded as a valid method to enhance oil recovery. When CO2 injection is implemented in such reservoirs, the physical properties of the formation could be altered owing to the interactions between CO2, water, and rock. In this study, the influence of CO2–brine–rock interactions on the physical properties of tight sandstone cores was analyzed by comparing the obtained T 2 spectrum before and after CO2 injection. The results revealed that the T2 spectrum after CO2 injection was significantly different from the original T2 spectrum. CO2 injection changed the pore size distribution of the core samples. When the injection pressure was low, the pore volume decreased from micropores to macropores leading to a decrease in both permeability and porosity. As the injection pressure increasing, the dissolution of CO2 in the micropores was enhanced thus improving the pore-throat connectivity; which ultimately improved the reservoir physical properties.

Previous studies showed the difficulty during polymer flooding and the low producing degree for the low permeability layer. To solve the problem, Daqing, the first oil company, puts forward the polymer-separate-layer-injection-technology which separates mass and pressure in a single pipe. This technology mainly increases the control range of injection pressure of fluid by using the annular de-pressure tool, and reasonably distributes the molecular weight of the polymer injected into the thin and poor layers through the shearing of the different-medium-injection-tools. This occurs, in order to take advantage of the shearing thinning property of polymer solution and avoid the energy loss caused by the turbulent flow of polymer solution due to excessive injection rate in different injection tools. Combining rheological property of polymer and local perturbation theory, a rheological model of polymer solution in different-medium-injection-tools is derived and the maximum injection velocity is determined. The ranges of polymer viscosity in different injection tools are mainly determined by the structures of the different injection tools. However, the value of polymer viscosity is mainly determined by the concentration of polymer solution. So, the relation between the molecular weight of polymer and the permeability of layers should be firstly determined, and then the structural parameter combination of the different-medium-injection-tool should be optimized. The results of the study are important for regulating polymer injection parameters in the oilfield which enhances the oil recovery with reduced the cost.

AIM: To know the more detailed findings of the small intestinal mucosa with the use of a magnifying endoscope and a vital dye, and the efficacy of the both tools. PATIENT AND METHODS: A 54-year old female patient with celiac disease. The duodenal mucosa downward as far as the descending portion was observed with a magnifying endoscope (Olympus GIF HM) before and after spraying the mucosa with 0.1% indigo carmine. RESULTS: The endoscopy clarified the atrophy and edema of each villus, and scattering of the dye revealed shorter villi with the relatively longer villi remaining in islands. CONCLUSION: The combination of magnifying endoscopy and the dye scattering method is useful for closer observation of the intestinal mucosa in celiac diseases.

Background: Despite the variety of treatment methods for wounds and scars after burns, there are still few effective preparations that can be used in a non-invasive therapy. Recent years have seen significant development of nanomedicine and nanotechnology in the treatment of infection in burn wounds. Proposal: The aim of this work was to develop a formula of a nanoemulsion gel for skin regeneration after burns, and to compare its rheological and sensory properties, as well as the effectiveness of post-burn skin regeneration with preparations available on the market. Methods: At the first stage of studies the composition and parameters of the preparation of sea buckthorn oil-based O/W (oil-in-water) nanoemulsion containing hyaluronic acid and aloe vera gel, as the active ingredients were optimized. Then, the nanoemulsion was added to the gel matrix composed of carbomer (1%) and water which resulted in receiving nanoemulgel. The physicochemical parameters of the obtained samples were characterized by means of dynamic light scattering method and scanning electron microscope. Rheological, sensory and influence on skin condition analysis was conducted for selected market products and developed nanoemulgel. Results: Nanoemulsion gel (d = 211 ± 1.4 nm, polydispersity index (PDI) = 0.205 ± 0.01) was characterized by semi-solid, non-sticky consistency, porous structure, law viscosity, good “primary” and “secondary” skin feelings and pleasant sensorical properties. It improves the condition of burned skin by creating a protective layer on the skin and increasing the hydration level. Conclusion: Due to the fact that the obtained nanoemulsion gel combines the advantages of an emulsion and a gel formulation, it can be a promising alternative to medical cosmetics available on the market, as a form of formulation used in skin care after burns.

Abstract Background and Aims Since hemofilters used for continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) come in prolonged contact with blood during treatment, clotting and cell adhesion induced by contact of blood with the membrane often occur, increasing the risk to the patient and burden on the staff. Suppressed platelet adhesion and better biocompatibility have been reported with the use of a dialysis membrane whose surface has been modified with an NV polymer in patients on maintenance hemodialysis. Therefore, it may be advantageous to use the NV membrane as a hemofilter for CRRT. In the present study, we evaluated the solute removal performance change and blood cell adhesion on the NV membrane after it comes in contact with blood, to clarify the characteristics of the NV membrane for long-time use. Methods A new polysulfone membrane containing the NV polymer (SNV) and a conventional polysulfone membrane (SHG) were used for the ex vivo blood filtration experiment. To compare the solute removal performance change and blood cell adhesion after blood comes in contact with the membranes, porcine blood collected from a single animal was divided into two portions, and a 24-hour of continuous hemofiltration (CHF) experiment was performed. The circulation conditions were as follows; blood flow rate, 100 mL/min; filtrate flow rate, 20 mL/min; heparin dose adjusted as appropriate to maintain the activated clotting time from 300 to 400 sec during the experiment. We evaluated the time-courses of the transmembrane pressure (TMP) and pressure drop at the hemofilter and the change in the sieving coefficients of dextran of different molecular weights (molecular weight cutoff curve) before and after the experiment, and blood cell adhesion. The amount of blood cell adhesion was evaluated based on the hemoglobin content and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity in the eluate from the residual blood clots on the hemofilter 24 hours after the CHF experiment. Results The changes in the TMP and the pressure drop were significantly lower with the use of SNV as compared to SHG (n = 9, p < 0.01). From the molecular weight cutoff curves before and after the experiment, the molecular weights when the sieving coefficient was 0.1 to 0.4, which reflect the pore size of the pores through which relatively small molecules can pass, decreased to a lower extent after blood contact with SNV as compared to SHG (n = 3, SC = 0.1-0.3, p < 0.05; SC = 0.4, p < 0.01).The hemoglobin content and LDH activity in the blood clots adhering to the membrane after the experiment were significantly lower in SNV as compared to SHG (n = 9; Hb, p < 0.01; LDH, p < 0.05), indicating that blood cell adhesion on SNV was less pronounced than that on SHG. Conclusion SNV suppressed the increase in the TMP and also the pressure drop, allowed a high rate of solute removal performance to be maintained, and suppresses blood cell adhesion to a greater extent as compared to the conventional polysulfone membrane.
