Methanogenic Paraffin Biodegradation and the Underlying Syntrophic Relationships
… of recalcitrant hydrocarbons such as paraffinic n-alkanes, or the overall syntrophic metabolism underlying these processes. Here, methanogenic solid and liquid paraffin-degrading enrichments were established, with Smithella identified as the hydrocarbon degrader. Fumarate addition was …

PARAFFIN: AN ECONOMIC AND ECOLOGICAL ALTERNATIVE FOR BONE CONSERVATION
… objects undergoing preservative treatment. Here, paraffin is explored as a biologically friendly alternative to bone material conservation. Modern domestic pig ribs were subjected to paraffin treatment and then to isotopic analysis to quantify and investigate the chemical effects of paraffin. …

Experimental determination of the buckling for unusual geometrical shapes using paraffin
… determined by experimental measurements using paraffin as a moderator. The pulsed neutron sources technique was used throughout the work; a fast neutron burst of short duration was injected into regular paraffin shapes (cylinders with diameter and height ratio equal approximately to one). An …

Focused Ultrasound Extraction (FUSE) for Formalin-Fixed, Paraffin Embedded (FFPE) DNA Extraction
Formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue is the most abundant, accessible, and versatile tissue sample type available for genetic research and clinical applications. However, FFPE DNA extraction presents unique challenges and requires lengthy incubation periods, which can be impractical for …

HLA-A Typing in formalin-fixed paraffin embedded tissue samples : towards potential retrospective analysis
El Antígeno Leucocitario Humano (HLA en inglés) ha sido descrito en muchos casos como factor de pronóstico para cáncer. La característica principal de los genes de HLA, localizados en el cromosoma 6 (6p21.3), son sus numerosos polimorfismos. Los análisis de secuencia de nucleótidos muestran que la …

Auto-Ignition of Liquid n-Paraffin Fuels Mixtures as Single Droplets Using Continuous Thermodynamics
… the auto-ignition time of single droplets of n-paraffin fuel mixtures using the method of continuous thermodynamics. The model uses experimental data for pure fuels to fit rate parameters for a single-step global chemical reaction equation; from this, correlations for rate parameters as a …

Development of methods for the microbiome analysis of formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissue specimens
… of bacteria under study. Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples represent the most comprehensive collections of patient materials in hospital pathology archives. However, for this sample to become reliably accessible for microbiome studies, the effects of FFPE processing on …

The effect of metal type and loading on n-paraffin hydrocracking conversion and selectivity
With the continued decline in global oil reserves, there is a growing need to develop alternative sources of conventional fuels to complement the current dependence on crude oil feedstocks. Natural gas, coal and biomass have been identified for this purpose. The distinctive advantage of using …

An investigation into the demand for illuminating paraffin and liquid petroleum gas in South Africa
… investigates the demand for illuminating Paraffin (IP) and Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG) in South Africa, and also tests the energy transition theory. The energy transition process outlines the substitution of fuels that occurs with rural-urban migration. Data on income, IP and LPG prices, …

Immunophenotypic classification of canine malignant lymphoma in formalin-fixed, paraffin wax-embedded specimens using CD3 and CD79a cell markers
Inconsistent use of nomenclature in different canine malignant lymphoma (CML)classification systems, which lead to incorrect diagnosis and prognosis, necessitated a retrospective study of 103 cases of CML. Histological classification was done according to the Working Formulation, on H&E sections, …

Optimisation of sample preparation for DNA extraction from formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues of unresolved sudden unexpected death cases
… genetic causes of death. Often, formalin fixed paraffin embedded tissues (FFPETs) are the only archival sources of DNA available for retrospective analyses. This study aimed to optimise DNA recovery from FFPETs for potential use in molecular autopsies of unresolved SUDY cases. To this end, DNA …

Human Papillomavirus DNA extraction and genotype analysis by multiplex real time polymerase chain reaction from formalin fixed paraffin wax-embedded cervical carcinoma specimens
Introduction: Cervical squamous cell carcinoma is most commonly caused by persistent infection by high risk human papillomavirus (hrHPV) genotypes. The exact type of hrHPV varies geographically and is the basis for HPV–based vaccination for cervical squamous cell carcinoma prevention. Little is …
