BACKGROUND Dehulling and splitting are important elements of the milling process to produce dhal from pulses. However, grain that is difficult-to-mill because tightly adhered seed coats or cotyledons resist separation makes it difficult achieve high quality dhal. Milling yields reduced, energy inputs into increased, resulting can be poorer quality, chipped abraded. RESULTS Eight enzyme pre-trea...

Abstract Movement of fish past dams can be facilitated by dedicated passage structures, navigational locks, and crested spillways, with the efficacy a structure depending strongly on nature systems (height dam, flow rate, etc.) fish's behavior swimming capability. However, once dam whether use mitigation or due to active translocation, encounter different habitat upstream versus in tailrace, po...

Background: Gingival recession (GR) is one of the most common esthetic problems affecting middle and older aged peoples. GR can lead to many changes as root caries, hypersensitivity, erosions, abrasions, plaque retention aesthetic dissatisfaction. This study aimed evaluate prevalence gingival in relation mucogingival deformities lower zone. Methods: A cross-sectional was done on a sample 290 fe...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether there was excessive risk of cancer among workers exposed to chrysotile fiber alone by applying a meta-analysis technique. METHODS All data meeting the criteria of cohort studies on cancer mortality among workers exposed only to chrysotile were incorporated into meta-analysis. Pooled standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) and their corresponding 95% confidence inte...

Environmental pollutants are hypothesized to be one of the causes of recent declines in wild populations of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar); across Eastern Canada and the United States. Some of these pollutants, such as polychlorinated biphenyls and dioxins, are known to induce expression of the CYP1A subfamily of genes. We applied a highly sensitive technique, quantitative reverse transcription-...

INTRODUCTION The aim of this study was to explore changes in glomerular filtration (GFR) and renal tubular function in critically ill patients at risk of augmented renal clearance (ARC), using exogenous marker compounds. METHODS This prospective, observational pharmacokinetic (PK) study was performed in a university-affiliated, tertiary-level, adult intensive care unit (ICU). Patients aged le...

Three parallel cohort studies of asbestos factory workers were undertaken to investigate the effects of mineral fibre type and industrial process on malignant mesothelioma, respiratory cancer, and asbestosis. This report describes the mortality of a cohort of 2543 men, defined as all those employed for at least a month from 1938 to 1958 in a textile plant in South Carolina in which chrysotile w...

The supply chain of the conventional Australian sugar industry is characterized by horizontal separation between the stages. Often antagonistic relations between segments, particularly farmers and millers, led to each developing their systems for their own segment’s benefit, without reference to the wider industry interests. Cane growing developed into a monoculture, reliant on material inputs ...

Previous chapters have defined Cognitive Load Theory (CLT), described evidence for different origins and types of cognitive load, the way that load interacts with individual differences and the impact of load on learning from instruction. In this chapter we will step back a bit and describe some of the history of cognitive load theory in order to better understand both its current focus and fut...

AIM Excellent understanding of fasciae and nerves surrounding the rectum is necessary for total mesorectal excision (TME). However, fasciae anterolateral to the rectum and surrounding the low rectum are still poorly understood. We studied the perirectal fascia enfolding the extraperitoneally located part of the rectum in en-bloc cadaveric specimens and the University Medical Center Utrecht (UMC...
