Leeches have also been used to prevent excessive blood buildup following certain surgical procedures (e.g., reattachment of severed fingers).
In any case, they say, with the Army stretched to maintain the current force in Iraq, and popular support for the war sinking at home, a buildup was certain to be refused.
Sifferman et al. (1992) pointed out that drillpipe rotation reduces annular cuttings buildup under certain conditions, and the effect is greatest at inclination near horizontal, for small cuttings and low rate of penetrations.
A new genetic analysis reveals that our brawny cousins had a number of distinct genes involved in the buildup of certain types of fat in their brains and other tissues a trait shared by today's Europeans, but not Asians.
To investigate this, Mallmann, Heckmann et al. combined a mechanistic model of C2 physiological function with a metabolic model, which allowed them to predict the buildup of certain metabolites based on the rates of Rubisco and photorespiratory activity.
Since kidney stones are caused by the buildup of certain minerals, eating fewer foods containing these minerals can help to shrink the stones.
The buildup of certain-handed molecules under the lab's strong magnetic field wouldn't be as pronounced in Earth's magnetic field, but Rikken says that even a minuscule excess of one mirror image over another--such as left-handed amino acids over right-handed ones--might help explain why life prefers one handedness over another.
When the buildup reaches a certain density, he attacks it with power sanders and other tools, exposing earlier layers, flashes of color, and unexpected juxtapositions.
However, to manage certain discharge variability, a modular buildup can be implemented in terms of parallel operation of several machines as exemplarily shown in Fig. 8.
Dayside reconnection results in magnetotail flux buildup to a certain critical level, after which [or after the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) Bz turns northward] the substorm expansion begins.
