Nowadays, a large quantity of seafood is still moved to market essentially unpackaged. Whole or gutted fish are iced in fish holds, stored upon landing and then re-iced in bulk containers to be hauled to local fish markets. At the market, whole, dressed or filleted fish are displayed and offered for sale (still unpackaged) on a bed of ice. A switch from wooden to waxed or plastic-coated corruga...

The Brånemark Novum system is a new procedure for the one-day reconstruction of periodontally hopeless or edentulous mandibles. It consists of a series of four drill templates and eight drill guides to precisely position three implants that are completely level and parallel to one another. A prefabricated lower bar is attached to the implants. A prefabricated upper bar attaches precisely to the...

For nearly a century the fields of mammalogy and paleomammalogy have complemented each other, although the relative influence of one on the other has waxed and waned. The development of new techniques, databases, and information-handling capabilities in the past decades have enhanced the potential for working at the interface between these 2 fields in ways never before possible. This portends a...

In the report on specific laboratory tests in streptomycin therapy oftuberculosis (Medical Research Council, 1948) a subcommittee of the Medical Research Council recommended two techniques for the estimation of streptomycin in serum. One of these was a method involving serial dilutions in a serum-glucose-phenol-red indicator system on a waxed slide, followed by incubation in capillary tubes. Th...

Abstract An imbalance in pyrite weathering and burial is a primary mechanism responsible for oxygenation of the atmosphere oceans, but key processes governing terrestrial sulfur cycle remain nebulous. Here, we investigate components highly productive, glacier‐fed catchment, use global mass balance model to constrain riverine fluxes.

Abstract As a candidate theory of quantum gravity, the popularity string has waxed and waned over past four decades. One current source scepticism is that can be used to derive, depending upon input geometrical assumptions one makes, vast range different field theories, giving rise so-called landscape problem. apparent way address problem posit existence multiverse; this, however, in turn drawn...
