Furthermore, thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) of anorthite (~ 4.3 × 10−6 K−1) closed to glassy phase (~ 3 4.5 × 10−6 K−1), which makes it resistance to thermal shock but TEC of tri-calcium phosphate (~ 12 × 10−6 K−1) [9], increases TEC of bone china (~ 8.5 × 10−6 K−1) [8] and makes it suitable for low-temperature glaze [9].
Although beech is currently only rarely used as a construction material – due to the difficult processing and the lack of design methods – its abundant availability in Central Europe and its high mechanical resistance make it a promising material for structural applications.
Its soft, succulent berries have too short a shelf life compared to ones engineered for durability over flavour, while its lower vigour and disease resistance make it slower to return financial investment.
Its extended antimicrobial activity and infrequent tendency to engender resistance make it popular for the treatment of infections.
As systemic Candida infections are often fatal, and both C. albicans and NAC species are rapidly developing resistance to standard antifungal treatments, it is essential to develop novel antifungal agents which act via mechanisms that make it difficult to develop resistance.
Moreover, the severe side effects and the reported drug resistance make it an urgent need to search for effective drugs that can replace or supplement those currently used.
The particular properties of stainless steel nitrided at low temperature (high corrosion and wear resistance) make it a very interesting scientific problem.
The new index would make also make it easier to compare resistance data across countries, says Laxminarayan.
The index, not unlike the Dow Jones or the cost-of-living index, could help drive home the importance of smart drug policies and make it easier to compare resistance in different countries.
So doesn't providing a schedule to resistance make it less effective?
