XIV. Contributions to the history of explosive agents [PDF]

open access: yesPhilosophical Transactions, 1874
Abstract The degree of rapidity with which an explosive substance undergoes metamorphosis, as also the nature and results of that metamorphosis, are, in the greater number of in­stances, susceptible of several modifications by variations of the circumstances under which the conditions essential to chemical change are fulfilled.

Investigation of the Impact of Extraneous Odours on the Detection Capability of Explosive Detection Dogs Under a Controlled Test Environment [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
In this work, an experimental procedure that enables testing of canine detection capabilities is described. The developed testbed includes an experimental setup with six exchangeable detection/sniffing boxes for odour masking experiments as well as an ...

Assessment of the Sympathetic Detonation of Blasting Caps

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The neutralization of improvised explosive devices (IEDs) involves the use of disrupting agents propelled explosively. Due to the special nature of such materials, a proper investigation of the parts most susceptible to sympathetic detonation is in order.

Microbial Agents in Terrorism, Biomarkers, and Public Health Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Life Science, 2022
Bioterrorism agents are mostly microorganisms with the capacity to deal explosive and lethal harm to humans, animals, and food crops. These microorganisms spread in the form of gases, whole organisms, or products of secondary metabolism of microorganisms.
