Helicteres angustifolia L. is a shrub that forms a common ingredient of several cancer treatment recipes in traditional medicine system both in China and Laos. In order to investigate molecular mechanisms of its anticancer activity, we prepared aqueous extract of Helicteres angustifolia L. Roots (AQHAR) and performed several in vitro assays using human normal fibroblasts (TIG-3) and osteosarcom...

Tungsten Inert Gas (TIG) welding is a widely applied manufacturing process. Angular distortion is a major problem and most pronounced among different types of distortion in the butt welded plates. This angular distortion is mainly due to nonuniform transverse shrinkage along the depth of the plates welded. Restriction of this distortion by restraint may lead to higher residual stresses. However...

Tetanus immune globulin (TIG) continues to be recommended in persons with tetanus-prone wounds who have incomplete or unknown tetanus immunization status. The aim of this study was to determine whether, following a booster dose of tetanus toxoid in adults who had not been immunized in the previous 10 years, there was an antitoxin response to tetanus toxoid booster within 4 days. Thirty-one adul...

In the present investigation, we examined the effect of Hyuganatsu (Citrus tamurana) extract (HE) on skin fibroblast (TIG-119) proliferation and migration during in vitro wound healing. HE selectively inhibited proliferation of TIG-119 cells at higher concentration (>1.0 mg/mL); at lower concentrations (0.1, 0.25, 0.5, and 0.75 mg/mL), it exhibited linear and time-dependent cell proliferation. ...

The review focused on the applications of tungsten inert gas a (TIG) metal (MIG) welding processes. Each process was critical studied to understand operations and need maintain safety reliable weld with adequate mechanical properties. In addition, various in aerospace, aeronautic, automotive food packaging industries were critically highlighted. However, there potentials as well problems highli...

Metals are often subjected to various types of stresses, usually under tensile stress, quick failure material can be encouraged especially when poor combinations process parameters employed in joining the material. Tensile strength is regarded as maximum stress that a sustain tension. The aim this study predict weld tungsten inert gas (TIG) mild steel welds using Response Surface Methodology (R...

Welding is a suitable and better process to manufacture complex objects for aerospace, naval, automotive structures. Service conditions complexity in load acting force the manufactures make joints between dissimilar materials. Thus, there need efficient welding techniques form sound an understanding of imperfections their effects. In this study attempt has been made joining feasibility aluminum...
