Characterization of health and safety hazards of deconstruction activities.

Background: Manual deconstruction-an alternative to mechanical demolition-is a crucial technique in the building industry that facilitates a circular economy for the built environment and achieves sustainable development goals (SDGs). However, the current body of literature lacks a thorough grasp of the OHS (occupational health and safety) hazards related to the deconstruction process. The current work closes this scholarly gap by outlining the deconstruction process as phases and sets of activities and highlighting potential health and safety hazards throughout different activities and phases.

Endometrial glycogen, protein, nucleic acids and phosphatases during oestrous cycle in buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis).

Distinct cyclic variations were observed in the concentrations of endometrial glycogen, protein, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA) and activities of acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (AKP) during the follicular and luteal phases of the oestrous cycle in buffaloes. Glycogen, protein, DNA and RNA concentrations were significantly (P less than 0.01) higher in buffalo endometrium during the follicular phase than the luteal phase of the oestrous cycle whereas ACP and AKP activities were significantly (P less than 0.

Sialo proteins and phosphatases in estrual cervical mucus of fertile and repeat breeder buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis ).

Concentrations of sialic acid and protein and activities of acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (AKP) were determined in estrual cervical mucus of fertile and repeat breeder buffaloes during late estrus. Significantly (P < 0.01) higher concentrations of sialic acid and ACP and AKP activities were observed in fertile buffaloes as compared with repeat breeder buffaloes.
