into English from the fifth German edition by A. Turnbull, M.A., B.Sc., M.B., Ch.B. (Glas.). London: Baiilfere, Tindall and Cox, 1928. Pp. xviii plus 556, with 324 figures. Price, 42s. net. The; volume in German is the fiith edition of a work originally published in 1910, and that under review is the first English translation. To use Professor Kohler's words, the work is meant to be " an advise...

Multidetector (MD) technology has created new dimensions in spatial and temporal resolution in computed tomography (CT) scanning. Multislice CT scanners allow non-invasive coronary angiography within a single breath hold by use of faster gantry rotation times and sophisticated algorithms for retrospective electrocardiographic gating 1 . Four-row CT scanners have shown promising results 2 , even...

In this study, PP films were modified with an organic pro-degradant in different concentrations (1, 2 and 3 wt.%), exposed in the first step of degradation to natural ageing for 100 days followed by biodegradation in simulated soil in the respirometric test for 100 days. At the end of the combined degradation process the PP samples were characterized according to their morphological and physica...

In this study, different derivative spectrophotometric methods are proposed for the simultaneous determination of chlorpheniramine maleate (CP), phenylephrine HCl (PE) and phenylpropanolamine HCl (PP) in their ternary mixtures and in pharmaceutical dosage forms. Spectra of single component and ternary mixtures of various concentrations and combinations from zero- to fourth-derivation were obtai...

This work focused on the influence of processing conditions on the mechanical properties of polypropylene (PP) and PP/mesoporous silica-hydroxyapatite (PP/MCM-41-HA) hybrid nanocomposites. The mechanical properties of PP were enhanced by adding MCM-41-HA nanoparticles. Neat PP and hybrid nanocomposites based on PP, containing maleic anhydride-grafted polypropylene (PP-g-MA) and MCM-41-HA, were ...
