Tissue dehydration results in three major types of exsiccosis--hyper-, hypo-, or isonatraemia.All three types entail alterations of salt concentrations leading to impaired biochemical processes, and can finally cause severe morbidity.The aim of our study was to demonstrate the feasibility of a microwave-based sensor technology for the non-invasive
Biomethane is a sustainable energy that is produced from an organic and renewable resource.As the second-largest oil palm producer in the world, palm oil mill effluent (POME) is the primary source of biomethane generation in Malaysia.POME is the by-product of palm oil extraction and is extensively employed as a feedstock for the production of biome
Previous studies have shown that pollen products sold as nutritional supplements and used in apitherapy may contain toxic pyrrolizidine alkaloids (PAs) if bees collect pollen from PA-containing plants, such as Echium vulgare.In this study, the botanical origin of pollen from two observation sites was studied.Despite a high PA content in pollen samp
Myopia has significantly risen in East and Southeast Asia, and the pathological outcomes of this condition, such as myopic maculopathy and optic neuropathy linked to high myopia, have emerged as leading causes of irreversible vision Sacca loss.Addressing this issue requires strategies to reduce myopia prevalence and prevent progression to high myop
The behavior of braced steel frame structures is of special importance due to its extensive use.Also the application of active and semi-active control systems, regarding to their benefits in obtaining better seismic performance has increased significantly.The majority of the works on steel structures and steel connections has been done under far fi
