Environmental and economic factors increasingly encourage higher utility of industrial by-products. The basic objective of this study was to identify alternative source for good quality aggregates which is depleting very fast due to fast pace of construction activities in India. EAF oxidizing slag as a by-product obtained during the process in steel making industry provides great opportunity to...

BACKGROUND An open abdomen (OA) can result from surgical management of trauma, severe peritonitis, abdominal compartment syndrome, and other abdominal emergencies. Enteroatmospheric fistulae (EAF) occur in 25% of patients with an OA and are associated with high mortality. METHODS We report our experience with topical negative pressure (TNP) therapy in the management of EAF in an OA using the ...

In this paper, a novel control method for photovoltaic converter connection to the national gridis presented, so in addition to the injection control by solar arrays to the grid, this method cancompensate reactive power and harmonics in the load current. The system will be connected inparallel between the grid and load. The proposed system supplies all load power consumption(including active po...

using the facts controllers, such as static synchronous compensator (statcom), as it provides continuous reactive power, in the grid including wind turbine (wt) equipped with doubly fed induction generator, for improving voltage profile (under normal circumstances) and providing a transition ability from inductor generator transition state has been proposed. in this paper, in order to control t...

Hedera nepalensis is a ground-creeping evergreen woody plant growing mainly in the Himalayas and Kashmir. This plant is frequently used in folk medicines for the treatment of various ailments. The present research focused on the pharmacological evaluation and phytochemical analysis of crude methanolic extract (CME) and three fractions, n-hexane (nHF), ethyl acetate (EAF) and aqueous (AQF). The ...

The antimutagenic and antioxidant properties of various phenolic fractions obtained from Andean purple corn were examined by the Ames test and the DPPH antiradical assay. An anthocyanin-rich water fraction (WF) and an ethyl acetate fraction (EAF) showed a dose-dependent antimutagenic behavior against the food mutagen Trp-P-1 with IC50 values of 321.7 +/- 21.36 and 95.2 +/- 10.95 microg of chlor...

The resistant hepatocyte model (initiation/selection) and the triphasic model (initiation/selection followed by phenobarbital, for a maximum of 16 weeks) were compared for their ability to generate enzyme-altered foci (EAF) and nodules in the liver of Wistar rats initiated by diethylnitrosamine. The effects of S-adenosyl-L-methionine (SAM) on the development of preneoplastic tissue was tested i...

We present the tenth case of Eosinophilic Angiocentric Fibrosis (EAF) in the english literature, which presented as nasal obstruction in a patient of Indian descent. The histopathological and clinical features of this underreported condition is discussed as well as other lesions that may show similar features to EAF.
