BACKGROUND Dog bites are common in developing countries including Ghana, with the victims often being children. Although some breeds of dogs have been identified as being more aggressive than others, all dog bites carry a risk of infection. Immediate and initial assessment of the risk for tetanus and rabies infection with appropriate interventions such as wound management and subsequent selecti...

Dans les quinze dernières années, la recherche sur signes précoces du trouble spectre de l’autisme (TSA) a évolué, passant modèles rétrospectifs à des études longitudinales prospectives d’enfants présentant un risque élevé développer TSA. Alors qu’au départ, se concentraient presque exclusivement frères...

of the antimicrobial anthocyanin red pigment dracorhodin (Fig. 1B), which is isolated in the exudates of the fruit of Daemonorops draco, known as “dragon’s blood” in traditional Chinese medicine and as Kirin-kakketsu in Japanese. It has been used for the treatment of injuries and bleeding. Many flavonoids have been reported to induce apoptosis in human tumor cells, and therefore the cytotoxic e...

In order to determine optimum oven cooking procedures for lean beef, the effects of searing at 232 or 260°C for 0, 10, 20 or 30 min, and roasting at 160 or 135°C on semimembranosus (SM) and longissimus lumborum (LL) muscles were evaluated. In addition, the optimum determined cooking method (oven-seared for 10 min at 232°C and roasted at 135°C) was applied to SM roasts varying in weight from 0.5...

The activity concentrations of (226)Ra, (232)Th and (40)K in seven brands of Portland cement used in Nigeria have been determined using a gamma-ray spectrometer with a hyperpure germanium detector. A total of 22 samples were collected from suppliers. The mean activity concentrations varied between 19.2 and 85.1 Bq kg(-1), 12.9 and 31.7 Bq kg(-1), and 31.5 and 116 Bq kg(-1) for (226)Ra, (232)Th ...

We report on a comprehensive study of the ZnSe(100)-c(232)-Na interface using x-ray and UV photoemission, and x-ray-induced Auger spectroscopy. Spectra were taken after stepwise Na deposition onto a clean c(232)-reconstructed ZnSe~100! surface at room temperature up to a saturation coverage of about 1 ML of Na and after annealing. Based on the analysis of Auger parameters and of the relative in...
