In 2007, research was carried out to determine the type and amount of asbestos fibers in a Croatian factory with a long history of making asbestos-containing products.Since the 1970s, asbestos fibres have been considered carcinogenic in humans i.e as a known cancer-causing agent. In the environment, asbestos fibres are inactive and naturally resist biodegradation. In time, fibres can only be gr...

The superminimality of the fibres of an almost contact metric submersion is used to study the integrability of the horizontal distribution and the structure of the total space.

introduction: a number of maternally inherited mitochondrial diseases with distinct clinical phenotypes have been associated with point mutations in mtdna, all of which result in neurologic or neuromuscular disorders. several studies showed that mutations in the trna genes of mtdna could cause mitochondrial disease due to the decreased synthesis of mitochondrial dna coded proteins. materials an...

Despite the use of modern materials, clay bricks are reasonably preferable materials nowadays. However, the moo fetched and flexibility of clay bricks are not related with tall natural and feasible values, particularly with regard to crude fabric sources and fabricating processes. Agricultural world is growing fast, with increased rural arrive development and land cultivation leading to massive...

endometriosis is a common gynaecological disease that can cause severe pelvic pain such as dysmenorrhoea and dyspareunia, however the mechanisms by which pain is generated are not well understood. nerve fibres in endometriotic plaques have been reported by several authors. we have recently demonstrated the presence of unmyelinated sensory nerve fibres (using the pan-neuronal marker pgp9.5) in t...

rutting in asphalt concrete is a very common form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement which unfortunately has been incurable to date. one of the prime reasons of rutting is attributed to the behaviour of asphalt binder at elevated temperature. this study has investigated the performance of polypropylene fibres modified asphalt concrete mix against rutting. two types of asphalt concrete sam...

Volume fraction of fibres (A), aspect ratio of fibres (B) and fibres orientation (C) are considered as control factors in the determination of hardness strength, hardness strength of plantain fiber reinforced polyester composites (PFR P). These properties were determined for plantain empty fruit bunch (PEFB) and plantain pseudo stem (PPS). Hardness tests were conducted on the replicated samples...

cotton fibres were subjected to cleaning process and then characterized for maturity. decrystallisation and swelling processes with caustic soda, ethanol, propan-2-ol and trichloroethene on the native fibres were carried out. the effects of these on the strength and moisture regain were investigated. the activation energies of the dyeings were also analysed with durazol scarlet red 4 bas. the r...
