TCA peels were first described by Roberts in 1926. Many consider TCA the gold standard by which other peels are measured. Concentrations of 10-30% are used for superficial peeling. TCA precipitates epidermal proteins, causing sloughing and necrosis of the treated area. The extent of damage is concentration dependent. In contrast to glycolic acid, Jessner s solu-... 

The history of the myths-directed human society is a mine of the irrational consequences of misbeliefs traditionally handed down from generation to generation. It is enough to read a few of the more recent overviews Massacre in History (Levene and Roberts, 1999), In God s Name Genocide and Religion in the Twentieth Century (Bartov, 2001), Modern Hatreds The Symbolic Politics of Ethnic War (Kaufman, 2001), The Medical Documentation of Torture (Iacopino and Peel, 2002) to get acquainted with the worst manifestations of malevolently manipulated human brains. 

Lentigines and keratoses should be treated by another method in parallel with AHA peels. There are other, more efficient, techniques to treat these problems liquid nitrogen, dry ice, Only Touch peel, intense pulsed light (IPL), laser, etc. Dr Robert Vergereau (France) compared the use of dry ice, Erbium laser, Q-switched laser, coagulation and Only Touch peel. He concluded that If all these methods are satisfactory, in my opinion, the technique using trichloroacetic acid is the most beneficial . 

An ideal adhesive film system can be made by the method originally used by Roberts, shown in Fig. 14.4(a). He moulded gum rubber against an optically smooth surface such as glass, crosslinked the polymer by heating with sulfur or peroxide, peeled the rubber from the surface to reveal an optically smooth polymer surface, then adhered this material to another smooth surface to form the joint. Alternatively, low temperature reacting materials such as silastomers or... 

The importance of viscoelastic effects in adhesion as measured by methods such as peeling tests means that it is quite difficult to measure the limiting fracture energy Gq. One method that has been used successfully for elastomers was developed by Johnson, Kendall and Roberts (Johnson et al. 1971) and is commonly known as the JKR experiment. The experimental arrangement is... 

The Health and Morals of Apprentices Act of 1802 was introduced by Robert Peel in an attempt at reducing apprentice working hours to 12 hours per day and improving the conditions of their employment. The Factories Act of 1833 restricted the working week for children aged 13-18 years to 69 hours in any working week.

Trichloroacetic acid (TCA), first described by Roberts in 1926, is an inorganic compound, which is present in crystalline form. For the purposes of chemical peeling, it is mixed in an aqueous solution with distilled water to create the desired concentration. The use of TCA as a peeling agent has a wide variety of applications. 

The first Health Safety legislation in the UK was introduced by Sir Robert Peel, a cotton manufacturer who was appalled at the working conditions iti his own mills, particularly with respect to the use of child labour. This became law in 1802 as the Health Morals of prentices Bill which became the first Factory Act, despite strong opposition from mill-owners. Although this legislation was extremely limited in that it only dealt with apprentices who were sent to the mills from workhouses, that is, those which were the responsibility of the state it is important as it initiated the whole modem system of state regulation in industry. 

In 1843 he told British prime minister Robert Peel that the most indispensable nourishment taken up from the soil is the phosphate of lime, and two years later he began marketing in England his line of low-solubility mineral fertilizers. These mixes were prepared from plant ashes, gypsum, calcined bones, potassium silicate, and magnesium sulfate. Even those mixtures that contained some ammonium sulfate had too little nitrogen to become commercially successful, and the enterprise, launched jointly with Sheridan Muspratt (1793-1886), an alkali manufacturer in Liverpool, failed after only about three years. ...
