Former Yugoslavia

A cross-sectional view of kenaf is shown in Figure 3d. The ultimate cells are nearly cylindrical with thick cell walls. Kenaf fibers are shorter and coarser than those of jute. Both chemical (kraft) and mechanical pulps have been produced from kenaf, and successful demonstration mns of newsprint have been made for the Dallas Morning Nem, the St. Petersburg Times, and the Bakersfield Californian with a furnish of 82% kenaf chemithermomechanical pulp and 18% softwood kraft pulp. Kenaf fiber is also considered a substitute for jute and used in sacking, rope, twine, bags, and as papermaking pulp in India, Thailand, and the former Yugoslavia. RoseUe bleached pulp is marketed in Thailand. 

When energy alternatives are available, a compromise between cost and quaHty is often realized. Blending of coals can be used to achieve more desirable quaHties. For example, lignite from the former Yugoslavia has been blended with, and even substituted for, the highly caking Rasa coal used for coke production in the iron (qv) and steel (qv) industries.

I threw away a lot of it, Mr. Zaric said of their research, conducted at the dining table beneath a portrait of Tito, the president of the former Yugoslavia. (Mr. Zaric is from Belgrade.)... 

It is a hantavirus that is normally found in the former Yugoslavia. The natural reservoirs are small rodents and the virus is shed in their urine. Infection occurs after inhalation of dust contaminated with excreta from infected rodents or from aerosol of animal blood or fluids. Does not produce disease in animals. This is a biosafety level 3 agent. 

Pyrethrum, originally a wild plant, is native to the Dalmatian region of the former Yugoslavia and Persia. 

As mentioned above, the origin of pyrethrum is the Dalmatian region of the former Yugoslavia on the Mediterranean coast of the Adriatic Sea, east of Italy. It is said that pyrethrum was discovered in 1694. While inhabitants of the pyrethrumgrowing region seem to have already known about the properties of this plant and to have utilized it in powder form for insecticide applications, its insecticidal activity was verified in around 1840. 

As is well known, ammunition containing depleted uranium (DU) was used by NATO, for example, in the former Yugoslavia. To evaluate the origin of DU (enrichment process of natural uranium or reprocessing of exhausted nuclear fuel) it is necessary to directly detect the presence...

Although the role of ochratoxins in human pathogenesis is stiU speculative, the lesions of nephropathy in humans were reported to be similar to those observed in porcine nephropathy [104]. Outbreaks of kidney disease (Balkan endemic nephropathy) in rural populations in Bulgaria, Romania, Tunisia and the former Yugoslavia were associated with ochratoxin A [104—106]. These correlations were... 

There are a number of examples of locahzed conflicts where CWs have been intentionally used but cannot be verified e.g. in 1951-1952 in the Korean War in 1963 the Egyptians used mustard bombs against Yemeni royalists in the Arabian peninsula in the Indo-China War (see Vietnam War) in 1970, in Angola antiplant agents were almost certainly used and in former Yugoslavia, there were rumors of the use of psychotomimetic agents. 

Probably the most discussed factor is the possibility of a broad-spectrum reactivator. Every new oxime could be tested for its broad-spectrum potency. However, the probability of finding such an oxime is low. Alternately, we can use a combination of two oximes. Such an approach was already applied in the former Yugoslavia (Kovacevic et al, 1989a, b) two decades ago. Candidates for this approach should be oxime HI-6 and various other oximes which are applicable in the case of tabun and pesticide poisoning.
