It is very difficult to predict the load carrying capacity of bored piles because of the Complications that may arise such as difficult ground conditions , presence of ground water, method of boring, method of concreting, quality of concrete, expertise of the construction staff, the ground conditions and the pile geometry. Therefore the Pile design must be accompanied by in situ load testing. M...

The aim of the present work was to evaluate Entrance Surface Dose (ESD) to the patient using Thermo luminescence dosimeters (TLD) during some common routine pediatrics X-ray examinations in main pediatrics hospitals in Sudan. ESD and Effective Dose (E) for pediatrics have been carried out for 250 patients undergoing five different examinations. The mean ESD ranged for neonates ranged between 0....

This study was done to investigate the histopathological responses of the early phase during experimental Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis infection in white mice. Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis strains were isolated from natural cases of caseous lymphadenitis (CLA) in sheep. The experimental infection was done by using five isolates. These isolates were confirmed by PCR and they showed d...
