Associations with chlorophenols were, however, analysed in two case-control studies nested within 24 of the 36 cohorts of the lARC study. These compared 11 cases of soft-tissue sarcoma and 32 cases of non-Hodgkin lymphoma with 55 and 158 controls, respectively (Kogevinas et al., 1995). Exposure to chlorophenols, phenoxy acid herbicides, dibenzodioxins and -furans and other agents was assessed by a team of industrial hygienists (Kauppinen et al., 1994). Odds ratios for non-Hodgkin lymphoma, not adjusted for exposure to other agents, were 1.3 (95% CI, 0.5-3.1) for any chlorophenol, 2.8 (0.5-17.0) for pentachlorophenol and 1.0 (0.3-3.1) for 2,4-dichlorophenol. No excess risk was found in relation to other chlorophenols, but the munber of exposed cases was small. The odds... 

The team has brainstormed the factors and developed a prioritized list of the key ones. For each factor, ranges were established that were well outside of the anticipated operating range in order to maximize the effect size (but not so large as to change the fundamental reaction chemistry or overly stress the process facilities). Table 5 summarizes the final list of factors and their ranges that are to be included in the first DOE. Time, of course, will also be a (nested) factor, but, as previously discussed, its levels will be determined after the whole plot design is established.

OpenMP provides work-sharing constructs that make it unnecessary for the programmer to provide code that explicitly distributes the work among threads. A work-sharing construct binds to the thread team created by the innermost parallel directive within which the construct is nested. 

However, scientists at the University of Colorado, Denver, have found that colonies of ants that make nests in the stems of the D. hirsute trees produce formic acid, which prevents growth of other plants in the area. It is clear that plants and insects can team up to make great chemistry together.
