Today, we see that despite the plans and decisions made about the historical fabric, the people are very faintly seen and conservation the historic fabric of urban is one of the main concerns management urban In the absence of efficient management and lack of attention to the needs of local people, the historical Fabric Urban is destroyed. In this article are examined Ways other than physical m...

At present about 40% of the drugs being in the development pipelines are poorly soluble, even up to 60% of compounds coming directly from synthesis are poorly soluble [1]. Poor solubility is in most cases associated with poor bioavailability. According to the Noyes-Whitney law the dissolution velocity dc/dt depends on the saturation solubility cs. There are two basic approaches to overcome the ...

Since the enactment of the Antiquities and Monuments Ordinance in 1971 and the establishment of Antiquities and Monuments Office in 1976, the Hong Kong Government has set up several institutions with particular ordinances and schemes for Heritage Conservation. With the set-up of government initiatives, yet the protection of physical and cultural heritage is still limited due to the ambiguity of...

Our review highlights how traditional ecological knowledge influences people's adaptive capacity to socialecological change and identifies a set of mechanisms that contribute to such capacity in the context of community-based biodiversity conservation initiatives. Twenty-three publications, including twenty-nine case studies, were reviewed with the aim of investigating how local knowledge, comm...

The best way to reduce the degradation of metallic cultural heritage is through preventive conservation measures but, in many cases, it is not possible to obtain adequate environmental conditions, and it is necessary to apply coatings to the artefacts in order to protect them against corrosion. There is a continuous search in the metal conservation community for new and improved coatings that p...

Habitat fragmentation effects on annual survival of the federally protected eastern indigo snake" (2012). NASA Publications. Paper 106. Abstract The eastern indigo snake (Drymarchon couperi) is a federally listed species, most recently threatened by habitat loss and habitat degradation. In an effort to estimate snake survival, a total of 103 individuals (59 males, 44 females) were followed usin...
