Discovery of PHB... Polyhydroxybutyrate‚ or PHB‚ was discovered in 1926 by French microbiologist‚ Maurice Lemoigne‚ who was researching the use of bacteria to produce polyesters‚ at the time. However‚ it was overlooked and forgotten for over 30 years‚ as there wasn’t any need for such a biopolymer; petroleum was still inexpensive and abundant so PHB was unnecessary. In 1957‚ PHB was rediscovered in Britain and USA‚ and was further developed and researched during the 1960s. The mass production

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone density‚ which can lead to an increased risk of bone fractures1. Osteoporosis is closely linked to bone remodeling2‚ an adaptive process which maintains bone tissue integrity throughout one’s lifetime3. This process is carried out by specialized groups of bone cells known as basic multicellular units (BMUs) which dictate the processes of coupled bone breakdown and bone formation.3 During osteoporosis‚ this bone turnover rate accelerates and bone

The Chemistry of Osteoarthritis Osteoarthritis is the most common chronic condition of the joints. This usually occurs when the cartilage on the end of the joints wears down and the exposed bones rub together. This leads to loss of motion‚ stiffness‚ and joint pain. Stiffness usually occurs in the morning or after resting. Osteoarthritis is usually more common in middle-aged and older people. An estimated 27 million people age 25 and up have Osteoarthritis.

Steel ball is widely used in machine‚ but also ages rapidly. Therefore‚ knowing the ball mill course and causes of aging can improve the life span. There are four major causes of steel ball aging Firstly‚ cutting and shaping abrasion. The relative sliding motion in the cylinder of ball mill ball is in the rising phase‚ hard material by the group is in cutting groove‚ and cutting softer materials on the ball is of the relatively shallow. Materials produce local shaping abrasion of the
