Wet abrasive blast cleaning with dust suppression water containing Chlor-Rid was used to prepare the interior surfaces of large tanks for painting, generating much less dust than dry abrasive blasting. The prepared surfaces were found to be free of chlorides and sulfates that could cause coating failure. A low-temperature epoxy coating was applied by a painting contractor and remained in excellent condition with no visible rust after one year of immersion service, demonstrating the success of this innovative painting technique for tanks.

Mammary gland and its birth anomalies with characteristics in other mammalian...Visith Dantanarayana
The mammary glands develop differently in males and females due to hormone levels. In females, the breasts develop further during puberty, pregnancy, lactation, and are influenced by the menstrual cycle. They are composed of glandular, adipose, and connective tissues. Hormones like estrogen, progesterone, and prolactin stimulate development of the breasts at different stages through their receptors. The Cooper's ligaments provide internal support to the breasts but sagging is influenced by multiple genetic and environmental factors rather than the ligaments alone. The breasts have arterial blood supply and venous drainage and lymph from different areas of the breasts drains to different lymph node groups.
