Asbestos Presence in a Factory that Produced Asbestos-Containing Products
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...
متن کاملAsbestos-related Lung Diseases: A Brief Update

A linear no-threshold (LNT) model has been applied, although its relevance is unproven. Fibers are often found in the lungs and pleura of deceased people. Fiber findings do not prove that a disease is caused by asbestos. It is reasonable to assum...

متن کاملFurther Evaluation of a Hearing Loss Simulator
A real-time, level-expansion system to simulate hearing loss for normal hearing persons was studied. The simulator's effect on the performance of normal hearing subjects in basic psychoacoustic tasks was investigated through experimentation. The experiments performed included measurements of intensity discrimination, critical ratio, and two-tone suppression. The results of these experiments wer...
متن کاملA further evaluation of hybrid wheat
The development of F1 hybrid varieties of wheat is reviewed under four main headings: male sterility, hybrid seed production, the performance of hybrids and commercial aspects. The three systems for male sterility used in wheat (cytoplasmic male sterility, nuciear male sterility and chemical hybridizing agents) are described and it is noted that no system is without problems or has a clear adva...
