Summary Background Occupational allergic respiratory symptoms in coffee workers have been frequently reported, but the ultimate cause of sensilization is still debated, castor bean being considered besides green beans. Atopy and cigarette smoking suggested as promoting factors sensitizalion for several occupational allergens. Objective This study was carried out to assess prevalence sensitization both beans whole workforce a manufacturing plant. Furthermore we wanted ascertain presence...

A complete pre-burning characterization for different fuel formulations performed. tested compositions are based on micro-crystalline paraffin wax (W1), possibly blended with styrene-based reinforcing polymer (SEBS-MA). Liquid (LP) considered as an additional ingredient mechanical properties tailoring. the fuels...
View Video Presentation: https://doi.org/10.2514/6.2021-3502.vid Although affordable and fast burning, paraffin waxes are rarely exploited as fuels in real flying systems because of their poor mechanical properties. To date, the identification paraffin-based formulations offering both high ballistic performance structural integrity is still a tough challenge. The Space Propulsion Laboratory exploring how to enhance pursuing two strategies: blending with thermoplastic polymers, i.e. blends,...
This paper deals with neutralization properties of magnesium/aluminum dual fuel blends inside solid propellants based on ammonium perchlorate (AP). Magnesium in is known to capture chlorine generated by AP decomposition forming magnesium chloride, a harmless compound for the environment. According thermochemistry, presence aluminum hinders this reaction due formation aluminate. The work addresses problem from both thermochemical and experimental viewpoint. Different propellant compositions...

Combustion gases contain a consistent fraction hydrogen chloride, which readily becomes hydrochloric acid, once in contact with atmospheric moisture. Hydrochloric acid is potentially toxic for environment and takes part ozone layer depletion processes, at stratospheric level. Lab-scale research development...
Skin-test sensitivity was computed in 61 schoolchildren drawn from a stratified random sample order to generate two allergy indices based on quantitative skin-test assay: Individual Allergy Index (IAI) and Population (PAI). The former quantitate IgE-mediated skin test of each subject, the latter describe degree reactivity our single allergen. Five allergen extracts were tested at 4-fold dilutions. Sensitivity endpoint data used IAI. Frequency distribution IAI seemed be bimodal as...
