The primary cause of genetically determined muscular dystrophy remains obscure. Evidence in favour of purely myopathic (Walton, 1969), neoronal (Gallup & Dubowitz, 1973), vascular (Hathway et al., 1970) and autoimmune (Jasmin & Bokdawala, 1970) mechanisms has been put forward. Attempts to find a mutant protein have not yet produced any substantial results. The increase that occurs in certain in...

Computational fluid dynamics has shown a great interest among the scientific community to assess air pollutant concentrations in urban areas and, define strategies limit pollution and achieve sustainable cities of future. Recent studies have given methodologies on how mean annual based numerical model results compare with quality standards. Nonetheless, these need many wind directions be modell...

The article deals with the study on inclusion of biotechnology in selection roses. Roses are heterozygous plants and by seed propagation give splitting. Therefore, to accelerate reproduction new existing starting material, clonal micropropagation was included study. vitro process is influenced various factors. It should be noted that, initial stages it age mother plant season material isolation...

Smells are often said to be ineffable, and linguistic research shows that languages like English lack a dedicated olfactory lexicon. Starting from this evidence, I propose an account of how we talk about smells in English. Our reports the way things smell comparative: When say something burnt or roses, characterise thing's by noting its similarity characteristic certain odorous (burnt things, r...
