Introduction: Average glandular dose calculation in mammography with Mo-Rh target-filter and dose calculation for different situations is accurate and fast. Material and Methods: In this research, first of all, x-ray spectra of a Mo target bombarded by a 28 keV electron beam with and without a Rh filter were calculated using the MCNP code. Then, we used the Sobol-Wu parameters to write a FORTRA...

Forensic hair examination and comparison is often undervalued as evidence. Significant information can be developed from a thorough microscopic examination and comparison of human and animal hairs that can assist criminal and civil investigations. Animal hairs can be distinguished easily from human hairs and often can be specified to a genus, species, or even breed. Human hairs often can be ide...

The arrangement of fine hairs on the longitudinal and transverse flagella of Woloszynskia vticra is illustrated and discussed. Dilations of the nuclear envelope and endoplasmic reticulum in W. micra, similar in appearance and location to those containing flagellar hairs in other algal and fungal zoids, are found to contain bundles of fibrils. These fibrils are approximately the same width and l...

Hair is preserved for millennia in permafrost; it enshrines a record of biologic rhythms and offers a glimpse at chronobiology as it was in extinct animals. Here we compare biologic rhythms gleaned from mammoth's hairs with those of modern human hair. Four mammoths' hairs came from varying locations in Siberia 4600 km, four time zones, apart ranging in age between 18,000 and 20,000 years before...

results glandular trichomes composed of capitates and peltate trichomes. the essential oil composition differs. viridiflora and neryl acetate were not identified in yellow glandular trichomes. conclusions it seems that there is no relation between anatomical characteristics of the plant leaves and its essential oil composition. background perovskia abrotanoides karel. is a medicinal plant used ...

Alopecia areata is an unpredictable, non-scarring hair loss condition. Patchy alopecia areata sparing gray hairs is rare. Here we present 4 cases with patchy non-scarring hair loss, which attacked pigmented hairs only and spared gray hairs. It should be differentiated from vitiligo, colocalization of vitiligo and alopecia areata, and depigmented hair regrowth after alopecia areata.

Cutaneous branches of the mylohyoid nerve were observed in both sides of 25 (83.3%) and in one side of 5 (16.7%) out of 30 crab-eating monkeys (Macaca fascicularis). The branch supply the skin and sinus hairs at the mental part. These sinus hairs seem to be the intermandibular sinus hairs according to the manner of nerve supply.

In this paper brief observations are made on the principal dimensions, cross-sectional shapes and cuticular scale patterns of hairs of the Tasmanian monotremes and marsupials. The observations on the cuticular scale patterns alone, without considering other elements of the hair shaft, are of only limited value in a comparative study of marsupial hairs. However, it is suggested that a detailed m...
