Despite observations of a link between lymphatic vessels and lipids that date as far back as 300, a link between lymphatic vessels and adipose tissue has only recently been recognized. This review will summarize documented evidence that supports a close relationship between lymphatic vessels and adipose tissue biology. Lymphatic vessels mediate lipid absorption and transport, share an intimate ...

In this paper, conceptual models are presented to identify the effects of solid deformation on the changes in rock permeabilities for (a) fractured media, (b) intact media, and (c) fractured porous media subjected to external loads, all in steady state conditions. Finite element schemes are then developed with embedded correlations between induced strain and modified permeability to simulate th...

background: biting habit of mosquitoes plays an important role in the epidemiology of mosquito-borne diseases. mosquitoes use a set of elaborate sensory modalities to find their preferred hosts by exploiting cues emanating from a nearby host. it has been suggested that the chemical profile of skin can provide further support for anthropophilic mosquito species to find their suitable hosts. this...

Abstract Understanding the formation damage surrounding well during drilling operation is key to predict degree and protect in oil/gas reserviors. Based on core drainage results, we obtained an empirical relationship between invasion volume of fluid permeability reduction formation. Furthermore, equation incorporated into a commercial reservior numerical simulation simulator characterize behavi...

Plankton composition and physicochemical properties of Ajiwa water reservoir were assessed over a twelve (12) month period. The biological parameters determined using conventional methods procedures at three sampling points. outcome was revealed. phytoplankton Chlorophyta (57.66%), Bacillariophyta (25.70%), Cyanophyta (14.73%), Dinophyta (1.91%), with Rotifera (30.55%), Copepoda (29.33%), Proto...
