The role of lime in the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), i.e., O2-., H2O2, and OH., from betel-quid components (extracts of areca nut and catechu) was investigated in vitro using a chemiluminescence technique and an assay for oxidative DNA damage involving analysis of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine. Of the various areca-nut extracts, the catechin fraction, at alkaline pH, was shown to b...

A research worker in soil chemistry accustomed to cbfidk$ions in England is soon conscious in New Zealand of many anomalies in the position that liming occupies in local farming practice. In the major%y of districts in Great Britain the periodical application of lime is an establish& practice, and when this practice is neglected the failure of crops or of pasture is quickly notciceable. Moreove...

–A detailed investigation has done Redmud an Alluminium industrial waste product has done to study its feasibility for use in road constructions. In this study Redmud was stabilized with 2, 4, 6, 8,10and 12 percentages of lime and unconfined compressive strength, Split tensile strength and California bearing ratio tests were conducted at 1, 3, 7 and 28 days curing periods respectively. From the...

LIME (Linda in a Mobile Environment) is a middleware supporting the development of applications that exhibit physical mobility of hosts, logical mobility of agents, or both. LIME adopts a coordination perspective inspired by work on the Linda model. The context for computation, represented in Linda by a globally accessible, persistent tuple space, is refined in LIME to transient sharing of iden...

A method for the direct assessment of the dissolved CO2 concentration in supersaturated water is presented that is based on changes to the physical chemistry of soda lime due to uptake of CO2. The approach is an adaptation of a standard method used for the quantifi cation of soil respiration, and was found to agree with pCO2 measurements made using infrared gas analysis. In this method, the sod...

1. introduction adding lime to increase the geotechnical characteristics of fine-grained soils, to achieve different goals always been done from ancient time. there are many techniques for stabilizing unstable slopes, among them lime treatment is a quick, simple and cost-effective operation that can be incorporated into any unstable slopes. some scientific techniques of soil treatment have been...

BACKGROUND Biliary sludge is associated with gallbladder (GB) dysmotility and mucus hypersecretion suggesting a link between biliary sludge and the formation of GB mucoceles (GBM). If biliary sludge progresses to GBM, treatment to reduce the production and progression of sludge is warranted. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES The objective of this study was to determine the course of biliary sludge in dog...

Abstract A tool for calculating the economic and environmental impacts of use byproducts industrial processes that can substitute perishable resources was presented. This exemplified by fly ash (the fine fraction originating from coal burned to generate electricity collected filtering exhaust gases leaving furnace), added soil as a component sewage sludge stabilized with lime (NVS). Application...
