Nowadays, the electrochemical water treatments are very important methods used for the removal of organic and inorganic impurities from fresh, drinking water and wastewater. The method consists of carrying out the oxidation reaction at the anode where pollutants are transferred into non-toxic substances, by decomposing into simpler compounds or transferring into oxidation form. RuO2-based Dimen...

Green tea (GT) and green tea extracts (GTE) have been postulated to decrease cancer incidence. In vitro results indicate a possible effect; however, epidemiological data do not support cancer chemoprevention. We have performed a PubMED literature search for green tea consumption and the correlation to the common tumor types lung, colorectal, breast, prostate, esophageal and gastric cancer, with...

Twelve cases of Sprengel's deformity were treated surgically by a modification of Green's procedure. After clavicular osteotomy, all muscular attachments to the scapula were freed; an omovertebral band if present was cut and the scapula was rotated and moved caudal to a more normal position, to be sutured into a pocket of the latissimus dorsi. The patients included 10 female and 2 male patients...

Acid mine drainage (AMD) is usually treated by air oxidation followed by addition of lime to precipitate metal hydroxides and calcium sulfate. Geo2 Limited of Melbourne, Australia, has developed and patented a novel alternative precipitation scheme based on the formation of mixed valency, M(II)-M(III), hydroxide sulfate salts. When the composition of AMD has an appropriate ratio of Fe(II):Fe(II...

in this study, the effect of green tea extract was studied on quality of surimi produced from fish silver carp during refrigerated storage. surimi was prepared and immersed with various concentrations of tea extracts (0, 2 and 4%). samples were refrigerated for 15 days and were performed chemical tests include ph, total volatile bases nitrogen (tvb-n), thiobarbitoric acid (tba) test and total b...

objective: the aim of the present study was to elucidate the possible biochemical improving effect in lipid metabolic that may result from continuous treatment with green tea extract in normal albino rats and those rendered hyperlipidemic by long term supplementation of fat-enriched diet. materials and methods: fifty male albino rats aged six weeks with 200±10 g weight were randomly divided int...

social engagement. This will not be simply a matter of income, although income is one way of measuring position in the hierarchy. Linking inequality in society with loss of dignity in individuals who are disadvantaged means that our set of social arrangements are crucial. By holding society responsible for human ills, including loss of dignity, are we not abrogating personal responsibility? The...

Increasing population, global climate change, and dwindling fossil fuel reserves have led to a green energy revolution in the past few years, particularly in the fields of green energy generation and storage. While fuel cell, lithium-ion batteries, and supercapacitors are far from technical jargon in today's world, the sheer number of these devices is not accurately exhibited in the consumer ma...

Periodontium comprises of investing and supporting structures of the teeth namely Gingiva, Periodontal ligament, Cementum and Alveolar bone. Periodontal disease is a chronic inflammatory disease affecting the supporting structures of the teeth. Micro organisms present in the dental plaque are considered as the primary etiological agent for periodontal diseases. Dental plaque contains anaerobic ...
