ABSTRACT Fallen/shed single hair shafts with/without roots can be encountered as evidence in crime scenes. Identification from hair exhibits serious difficulties, due to the low amount of DNA, PCR inhibitors, and the existence of DNA mostly in degraded forms. Exposure of hair to chemical oxidation, sunlight, etc.

The emission of pollutants from ornamental shrubs during forest fires
Abstract This study investigates the combustion behavior, emissions, and aerosol production of four plant species: Laurus nobilis, Cistus monspeliensis, Photinia fraseri, and Cupressus sempervirens. The Heat Release Rate (HRR) and Smoke Production Rate (SPR) were measured, revealing that Cupressus sempervirens had the highest HRR and longest flame ...

ABSTRACT The wildland‐urban interface (WUI) fire problem continues to perplex governments around the world. The WUI fire situation is not becoming better across the earth and globally harmonized test standards are required to help lessen the destruction in the event of WUI fire disasters. In this brief overview, a review of activities undertaken in ISO
