Solubility of hydrogen in sodium chloride brine at high pressures

We report measurements of the solubility of hydrogen in pure water and in sodium chloride brine of molality 2.5 mol/kg at temperatures between 323.15 K and 423.15 K and at pressures up to about 40 MPa. The estimated expanded relative uncertainty of the hydrogen solubility at given temperature and pressure is 3%, with a coverage factor of 2. The new results, together with data from the literature for hydrogen solubility in water and brine, are used to construct a simple model to predict hydrogen solubility in water and sodium chloride brines as a function of temperature, pressure and salt molality

A report of a rare congenital malformation in a Nepalese child with congenital pouch colon: a case report

Congenital pouch colon is one of rare congenital anomalies. We report a 3-day-old male child with congenital pouch colon who underwent a window colostomy but died because of overwhelming sepsis. Due to its rarity, many surgeons in our part of the world may not be aware of it, hence increasing the potential to its mismanagement. However, with simple keen observations, we can safely come to its diagnosis. The aim of this report is to bring attention to congenital pouch colon associated with anorectal malformation in our country, with a brief emphasis on an approach to its diagnosis and initial management
