Understanding the effects on DNA repair, cell cycle control (proliferation) and cell death from these agents and in combination with ionizing radiation, provides a new opportunity to logically develop better approaches to sensitize already existing therapies via for example inducti
A state of the art review on industrial applications of membrane technology in the pulp and paper industry is presented. Applications have been arranged under three headlines, effluent treatment, concentration and fractionation. Among new and promising applications are treatment of waste paper white water, effluent after deresination and concentration of spent liquor from chemi-mechanical pulping
