Synthesis of new phosphorus-containing (co)polyesters using solid-liquid phase transfer catalysis and product characterization.

This paper is directed towards the development of safe, and thermally stable solid polymer electrolytes. Linear phosphorus-containing (co)polyesters are described, including their synthesis, thermal analysis, conductivity, and non-flammability. Polycondensation of phenylphosphonic dichloride (PPD) with poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG 12000) with and without bisphenol A (BA) was carried out using solid-liquid phase transfer catalysis.

[Renal Doppler ultrasonography in the diagnosis of acute obstructions of the upper urinary tract].

A comparative study of the resistivity indices (RI) obtained in both kidneys has been carried out in 30 controls and 60 patients with suspected unilateral acute obstruction of the upper urinary tract. Doppler findings (difference in the mean RI of both kidneys, delta RI) in the pathologic population have been systematically correlated to the data yielded by intravenous pyelography (IVP). In the control population delta RI was always < or = 0.
