Lubricant is an important element that acts as a cutting fluid and coolant in metal cutting processes. The function of the lubricant is to reduce the heat generated at the cutting tool-workpiece and cutting tool- chips interfaces. The heat generated at the cutting zone promotes rapid wear progression of the cutting tool which leads to high cutting

Introduction: Spinal schwannoma can occur anywhere along the spinal cord but is predominantly seen in the cervical and thoracic region.It composes mainly of well-differentiated schwann cell and is benign in nature. It is typically seen in the peripheral nerves and is commonly associated with neurofibromatosis. Up to 80% of cases, spinal schwannoma

Organophosphate insecticides have a triphasic effect on the central nervous system, namely acute cholinergic crisis, intermediate syndrome and delayed polyneuropathy. Although acute organophosphate poisoning is relatively common, case reports describing parkinsonism as a neurological complication following an acute intoxication are limited. 1 We re
