The causticizing calcium carbonate (CCC) produced in the causticizing stage of the chemical recovery process in alkaline pulping of wheat straw has a high silicate content and is difficult to convert to calcium oxide in the lime kiln.The CCC can be utilized as a paper filler to avoid costly lime re-burning, but the silicate content of the CCC can h
Background Pancreatic ductular adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is among the most dreadful of malignancies, in part due to the lack of efficacious chemotherapy.Immune checkpoint inhibitors, including anti-programmed cell death 1 (anti-PD-1) antibodies, are novel promising forms of systemic immunotherapy.In the current study, we assessed whether gemcitabine (G
Agricultural droughts are extreme events which are often a result of interplays between multiple hydro-meteorological processes.Therefore, assessing drought occurrence, extent, duration and intensity is complex and requires the combined use of multiple variables, such as temperature, rainfall, soil moisture (SM) and vegetation state.The benefit of
Computer simulations of physical phenomena are at the moment common both in science and industry.The possibility of finding approximate solutions for complicated systems of differential equations, mathematically describing issues in the fields of mechanics, physics or chemistry, allows for shorten design and research time, often significantly reduc
Forest conservation and livelihood improvement are the prime goals of forest-protected area co-management widely practiced in tropical countries.In Bangladesh, the co-management of protected areas (PA) started in Cushions 2004 with the funding of donor agencies involving the forest department (FD), non-government organizations (NGOs), along with th
