Fishbone comprising hydroxyapatite (bio-ceramic) is regularly viewed as a natural resource for biological and pharmaceutical applications. In this study, has been prepared from fishbone waste using thermal calcination method. The composite hydroxyapatite–montmorillonite–sodium alginate was synthesized by co-precipitation Various functional groups of biocomposite were characterised Fourier trans...

Abstract Due to the eutectic reaction, Mg 2 Si phase is inclined creating an unfavorable fishbone shape at low solidification rates. This can significantly degrade mechanical characteristics and become main barrier practical application of Mg-Si based alloy. It regarded that isothermal semi-solid treatment efficient technique modulate fishbone-shape phases in alloys. In this work, a new type Mg...

A 71-year-old-man was admitted to our hospital with a fever over 39°C. He had undergone pancreaticoduodenectomy for cholangiocarcinoma and suffered from recurrent cholangitis for a year after the surgery. Although laboratory data showed an elevated white blood cell count (13,100/mL) and C-reactive protein (6.53 mg/dL), no marked elevation was noted in the hepatobiliary enzymes. However, abdomin...
