Abstract
Bushings are essential elements of many power equipments, including circuit breakers, capacitors, reactors, etc. Both high- and low-voltage windings are insulated from the core and from each other, and leads are brought out through insulating bushings. The two basic bushing designs are non-graded and capacitance-graded. The former is the simplest and the oldest. Capacitance graded bushings are available in four technologies: Resin Bounded paper (RB), Oil-Impregnated Paper (OIP), Resin Impregnated Paper (RIP) and Epoxy Resin Impregnated Paper (ERIP). OIP bushing, developed in the 1920s, is one of the most common types [1]. About 80% of all bushings in use today are of the OIP type. © 2009 IEEE.

Abstract
In a traditionally cemented well, the integrity of the cement sheath surrounding the casing, and the bond between the cement and the formation or casing are essential components of hydraulic isolation. A well-cemented casing is designed to maintain hydraulic isolation throughout the productive life of the well and after abandonment. With advances in cementing technology, slurries have been designed that result in cement sheaths that can resist planned wellbore stresses without failure. Once the cement has set, however, the fixed set-cement properties do not address stresses that have not been planned for, and that may ultimately result in cement sheath failure. This study considers the case of well construction as part of a new gas field exploration in Algeria. Wells drilled in this area have been prone to developing annular gas leaks in the weeks and months following cementing operations. To prevent the loss of isolation and reestablish hydraulic integrity in the event of cement failure, a new cement-based sealant was incorporated into the well construction plan. This reactive material responds to hydrocarbon leaks that occur because of fissures in the cement, debonding of cement from the formation or the development of a microannulus between the cement and the casing. These leaks trigger a self-healing response, sealing the leak path, and restoring well integrity. Using this sealant material has reduced the incidence and likelihood of leaking wells in an area where such problems are common, and eliminated the potential time and cost associated with leak remediation.

Abstract
As a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), 'Red Flower Oil' preparation is widely used as a household remedy in China and Southeast Asia. Usually, the preparation is a mixture of several plant essential oils with different volatile features, such as wintergreen oil, turpentine oil and clove oil. The proportions of these plant essential oils in 'Red Flower Oil' vary from different manufacturers. Thus, it is important to develop a simple and rapid evaluation method for quality assurance of the preparations. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) was applied and two-dimensional correlation infrared spectroscopy (2D IR) based on the volatile characteristic of samples was used to enhance the resolution of FT-IR spectra. 2D IR technique could, not only easily provide the composition and their volatile sequences in 'Red flower Oil' preparations, but also rapidly discriminate the subtle differences in products from different manufacturers. Therefore, FT-IR combined with volatility-dependent 2D IR correlation analysis provides a very fast and effective method for the quality control of essential oil mixtures in TCM. © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

Abstract
The evaluation of the optimum conditions for concentration of the sweet orange essential oil by wiped film evaporator required a planning of experiments. The factors of the selected centered composite plan are the rate of feed, the temperature of the heated fluid and the stirring velocity. The quadratic model obtained required complementary work by simplex method to determine the optimum. The analysis by gas chromatography of the samples revealed a 18.2 times concentrated oxygenated compound in the residue. © 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract
A canonical discriminant function analysis (CDA) was applied to essential oil compounds profile to determine the growing location of marjoram samples. 12/21 essential oil compounds were integrated into two discriminant functions as the best predictors for geographical differences. Stepwise integration allowed the determination of the essential oil compounds mainly responsible for the geographical variation, viz. myrcene, terpinene-4-ol, γ-terpinene and p-cymene. The two discriminant functions themselves showed a strong association between the locations and the predictors. The two functions allowed a correct classification of 95% of samples (cross-validated). The high positive classification rate demonstrates the CDA's ability as a quality assurance tool enabling authenticity control. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
An estimated 70% of all South Africans use traditional medicines derived from plant species indigenous to the region. In order to formalize the position of these medicines within the state health care system, a necessary first step is the establishment of standards of quality, safety, and efficacy. With this objective in mind, pharmaceutical monographs for 60 plant species used as traditional medicines in South Africa were drawn up according to WHO guidelines. The results of some of this work are reported here, focusing in particular on 26 species belonging to Asteraceae, Geraniaceae, and Lamiaceae, families well represented in indigenous traditional medical practice. Quality standards for the identification of these species, established using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and traditional microscopy, are given. The results of investigations, using the disk assay method, of their efficacy as antimicrobial agents are reported. Secondary chemical profiles, drawn up using standard techniques in pharmacognosy, are shown and discussed with reference to the known bioactivity of each chemical class.

Abstract
Among 100 somaclones of jamrosa screened, a wide range of variation was recorded for several traits, including plant height, tiller number, herb weight, oil content and total oil yield. Qualitative analysis of essential oil was carried out for 45 somaclones which performed better or equal to the donor parent. Eleven somaclones selected on the basis of total oil yield and quality were further evaluated in replicated trial. Five superior somaclones showing a total oil yield twofold than the donor and possessing quality oil containing a high geraniol content > 84% were selected for further analysis in the field for six clonal propagations. Out of the five superior somaclones two improved somaclones which showed relative stability in oil yield and quality were subjected to RAPD analysis. Changes in RAPD banding pattern in the improved somaclone as compared to donor parent revealed occurrence of gross genetic changes. © 2003 Elsevier Science Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

Abstract
Lime flowers are used for various medicinal purposes in phytotherapy. Flavonoids, volatile oil and mucilage components are known as the active ingredients. In European Pharmacopoeia (EP), a simple thin-layer chromatographic (TLC) technique, which based on the analysis of the flavonoid composition was defined for the qualitative analysis of the drug. In this study, flavonoid composition in the flowers, bracts and leaves of the officinal species, Tilia platyphyllos were studied using a reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) technique, in order to develop a rapid, reliable and accurate method for quantitative analysis. The results were further compared with in those parts of two common species growing in Turkey, Tilia rubra and Tilia argentea. Results of the present study revealed that flavonoid composition of each lime species possesses a specific fingerprint HPLC chromatogram depending upon the parts used and evaluation of the data might be helpful in the quality assurance as well as determination of adulteration of the crude drug. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
