This chapter describes the clinical and pathological effects of electricity on the human body. It describes the pathophysiology of electrical injury and differences between various modes of electric shock. The effects of lightning, microwaves, and conducted energy weapons such as Taser are also ...
The animals were euthanized by electrocution after an experimental period of 90 days and bone specimens were sampled during necropsy. Before histological analysis, all femora (n = 30) were measured and weighted by a sliding instrument and analytical scales. Only the right femur was used for histol...
Baking soda is much uncomplicated; in fact, it only consists of one ingredient, sodium bicarbonate. Sodium bicarbonate is a base that reacts when it comes in contact with acid substances such as buttermilk, vinegar oryogurt. The reaction produces carbon dioxide as evidenced by the bubbles you s...
Electrocutions and Downed Powerlines: a Forensic Electrical Engineering Analysis of Causes, Reasons, and EffectsBrosz, Helmut G.Journal of the National Academy of Forensic Engineers
ElectrocutionPower linesSpainWildfireThe interaction between wildlife and power lines has collateral effects that include wildfires and Carbon Dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions. However, currently available information is scarce and so new approaches are needed to increase our understanding of this issue. Here,...
At the end of the test, piglets were fasted for 12 h and euthanized by electrocution (head only). The abdomen was opened and intestinal samples were taken no more than 15 min. The distal duodenum, middle jejunum, and middle ileum (5–6 cm) were quickly washed with ice phosphate buffered...
During periods of heavy rains and droughts, floods expose populations to the risk of drowning and traumatic pathologies: bruises, cuts or sprains, burns, electrocutions, snake bites, and wound infections [4]. The impact of the increase in traumatic pathologies has been described in tropical ...
