Variation in temperature and light but not salinity invokes antioxidant enzyme activities in germinating seeds of Salsola drummondii by A. Rasheed,A. Hameed,M. A. Khan &B. Gul

“…Generally, higher lipid peroxidation and antioxidant enzyme activities were observed in seeds at non-optimal temperature and in those seeds germinated in dark. Decrease in reduced ascorbic acid content was found in highest salinity and temperature treatments, while reduced glutathione content did not change significantly with changes in salinity, temperature and light regimes. …”

Histological evaluation of the male rabbit urethra: Regional and age-related variations and their relevance in tissue engineering and reconstructive surgery applications by Abbas, Tariq

“…Results: The rabbits' urethrae displayed significant similarities to human male urethra. The proximal and middle third of the urethrae were histologically characterized by an abundance of smooth muscle, while the distal third was composed of numerous sinusoids scattered among smooth muscle bundles that are decreasing in thickness and uniformity with increasing age. …”

Effect Of Sand Blasting On Soda Lime Glass Properties by Bousbaa, C.

“…The average strength remains almost constant while the dispersion becomes much reduced for the glass sand blasted during 60 minutes (m = 10.4 and smoy = 64 MPa). The variation of the relative efficiency of glass protected solar panels versus sand blasting duration (seen up to 300 min) shows a slow regular decrease until 0.91 for a 90° impact angle and until 0.95 for 30°. …”
