In extra virgin olive oil production, it is essential to obtain a well-prepared olive paste which allows not only the extraction of the oil drops from the olives, but also the achievement of a high-quality oil while maintaining high yields. This work addresses the problem of determining the effect of three crushing machines on the viscosity of the olive paste: a hammer crusher, a disk crusher and a de-stoner were tested. The tests were repeated on both the paste leaving each machine and the paste to which water was added; this was done with the main aim of considering the different dilutions of the paste while entering the decanter.

The radiation workers in India use extremity dosemeter in occupational areas where there is likelihood of receiving significant dose to extremities of the body. Algorithm used for the estimation of whole body dose and extremity dose of wrist are same and is based on slab phantom calibration. However, internationally, different phantoms are recommended for calibration of dosemeter used for extremity and whole body.

Purpose Of Review: Low back pain affects at least 80% of individuals at some point in their lifetime and is the fifth most common reason for physician visits in the USA. Treatment of an acute episode of LBP generally includes rest, activity modification, physical therapy, NSAIDs, and patient education.

Recent Findings: A small percentage of patients will develop chronic pain lasting > 6 months duration.
