TL;DR: In this article, the effect of relative humidity on the pilling performance of wool knitwear was studied and it was shown that reducing the relative humidity from 80% to 11% gave a five-fold reduction in peak pilling.
Abstract: A study has been made of the effect of relative humidity on the pilling performance of wool knitwear. Reducing the relative humidity from 80% to 11% gives a five-fold reduction in peak pilling of s...

TL;DR: In this article, two instrumented presses were described in which eleven different types of wool, including coarse and fine fleeces and offsorts, were compressed to their minimum total volumes using a heat, press, out-of-press cool sequence.
Abstract: Two instrumented presses are described in which eleven different types of wool, including coarse and fine fleeces and offsorts, were compressed to their minimum total volumes using a heat, press, out-of-press cool sequence. The final volume was the actual volume of all components with air excluded. Extrusion of grease and dirt during pressing resulted in higher yield products of lower weight and in-press densities over 1300 kg/m3. Frictional forces and transverse/in-line pressure ratios were deduced from side- and end-pressure measurements at 90°C and at 20°C for each of the two stages of biaxial pressing of these wools at final pressures of 3.1, 7.8, and 12.6 MPa. Densities of the compressed wools were monitored over a nine month storage period unrestrained under ambient conditions, and remained close to 1000 kg/m3 for those produced at the higher pressures.

TL;DR: This patient may well have suffered a cerebralembolism that originated from the mural thrombus after a myocardial infarction but possibly could have had a paradoxical embolism.
Abstract: pulmonary emboli have been described.' This patient may wellhave suffered a cerebralembolism that originated from the mural thrombus after a myocardial infarction but possiblycould have had a paradoxical embolism. This patient had \"multiple-system\" disease rather than the \"multisystem\" disease that is seen in younger patients.

TL;DR: A patient sensitive to this plant has been identified in Australia, and it is recommended that a standardised extract (Primin) should be used routinely in patch testing.
Abstract: Summary
A brief review is made of sensitivity to, and methods of testing to Primula obconica. A patient sensitive to this plant has been identified in Australia, and it is recommended that a standardised extract (Primin) should be used routinely in patch testing.
TL;DR: It is shown that necrotizing skin ulcers, together with liver and lung granulomas, have been recorded in koal as and mycobacterium ulcerans has been cultured from these lesions.
Abstract: Also worth y of mention is our primitive understanding of the koala's immune system. Two very simple observations that have been recorded so far may indicate that their immune responses are retarded in some way. First , koalas tak e about four months to seroco nvert after being exposed to Chlamydia. 1 Complement-fixing antibodies can be detected within about seven to 14 days in man y oth er animal species, incud ing humans. So, why the delay in koalas? Secondl y, in koalas with sarcoptic mange infestation, the cellular respon se (which is observed in skin biopsies) is almost nonexistent ; an overwhelming number of mites are present. 10 In comparison , the respon se to such mites in dogs results in a flor id cellular respon se, with few mites being observed in skin biopsies. 11 So, why the difference in response to the same parasite? Necrotizing skin ulcers, together with liver and lung granulomas, have been recorded in koal as.12 Mycobacterium ulcerans has been cultured from these lesions.\
