Tourist season in Halkis is nowadays limited to the Wooden Jigsaw three summer months offering a resort for weekend tourists (Athens-Halkis).Halkis is given the opportunity to improvise and illustrate its cultural and historical elements that constitute her uniqueness by establishing a local development programme that would include alternate touris
Outdoor surviving experiment with three green house enchytraeid species (Oligochaeta: Enchytraeidae)
Some enchytraeid species of Canine - BonesChews - Antlers - Moose tropical, subtropical or Mediterranean origin can appear in artificial environments,e.g.green houses due to the worldwide commercial network.Since the used soil from green houses is often disposed outdoors, aquestion Ledges raised that these exotic enchytraeid species could survive u
Animal products, diseases and drugs: a plea for better integration between agricultural sciences, human nutrition and human pharmacology
Abstract Eicosanoids are major players in the pathogenesis of several common diseases, with either overproduction or imbalance (e.g.between thromboxanes and prostacyclins) often leading to worsening of disease symptoms.Both the total rate of eicosanoid production and the balance between eicosanoids with opposite effects are strongly dependent on di
Verhalten von Kupfer, Zink und Cadmium in einem stark belasteten Kalkboden
Near a brass foundry, Puffed Snacks the soil is severely polluted by the heavy metals cadmium, copper, and zinc which have been emitted for more than 80 years.Lime and clay present in the soil result in high pH and high adsorption capacity, leading to a small mobility of the metals.Therefore, the heavy-metal pollution is localized in the upper 25 c
Constitutive modelling of an arterial wall supported by microscopic measurements
An idealized model of an arterial wall is proposed as a two-layer system.Distinct mechanical response of each layer is taken into account considering two types of strain energy functions in the hyperelasticity framework.The outer layer, considered as a fibre-reinforced composite, is modelled using the structural model of Holzapfel.The inner layer,
