THE two generally recognized divisions of the country are the Delta (Lower Egypt), extending from the Mediterranean littoral to Cairo; and Upper Egypt, the narrow strip of alluvial soil in the Nile Valley from Cairo to Wadi Haifa. The valley of the Nile is a rift valley formed by the subsidence of a narrow belt in the neighbourhood of a line of fracture on the earth's surface; from Cairo to Aswan town its length is 880 kilometres (547 miles), and its width varies from 3 to 21 kilometres (2 to 13 miles). The province of the Faiyum is a depression which is irrigated from the Nile by the Bahr Yusef Canal, one of the old natural drainage channels of the valley.

However it was the wish of the officials in MCH/MoH to identify the needs of hospitals and MCH centers to become Baby Friendly health facilities, as a follow-up of the survey conducted in 2008 (MCH- MoH/ELCA/UNICEF, 2010). The survey was inspired by UNICEF/ECO’s support, motivation and facilitation throughout the work. MCFC started off initially with three governorates: Qaluibiya, Alexandria and Sohag then added Gharbia governorate (only 4 hospitals and affiliated MCH units). We then formed partnerships with the universities in each governorate. We partnered with Benha University Faculty of Medicine in Qaluibiya and Sohag University Faculty of Medicine, community department in Sohag governorate, while utilized our own IBCLCs and national BFHI assessors in Alexandria and Gharbia governorates.

  • Detection of Raw Buffalo's Milk Adulteration in Sohag Governorate
    Assiut Vet. Med. J. Vol. 61 No. 144 January 2015 DETECTION OF RAW BUFFALO'S MILK ADULTERATION IN SOHAG GOVERNORATE EMAN M. SHAKER*; ABD-ELLAH A. ABD-ALLA** and MOHAMED Y. ELAREF *** *Department of Food hygiene, Faculty of veterinary medicine, Sohag University. **Department of Dairy science, Faculty of Agriculture, Sohag University. ***Department of Animal production, Faculty of Agriculture, Sohag University. Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT A total of 85 raw buffalo's milk samples were collected randomly from dairy shops Received at: 28/10/2014 (n=25), street vendors (n=30) as well as from farmer's houses (n=30) in Sohag Governorate. These samples were physically and chemically examined in order to determine whether they were adulterated by addition of water, partial skimming of Accepted: 9/12/2014 fat, addition of inhibitory substances, preservatives or commercial additives and if they were heat treated or not. So, the samples were analyzed by using automatic milk analyzer (to determine specific gravity, fat %, SNF %, added water % and freezing point). Also, milk samples were examined by general and specific tests to detect using inhibitory substances or preservatives, addition of some commercial additives and heat treatment. The results obtained show that milk samples collected from different sources (dairy shops, street vendors and farmer's houses) were adulterated by addition of water, partial skimming of fat, addition of inhibitory substances and different preservatives and heat treated but in different percentages. The highest percentages of adulteration by all types of adulteration were in milk samples collected from street vendors and dairy shops, respectively. It was concluded that adulteration of milk is a complex problem which is not only affect the human health and high economic costs, but also inhibiting the utilization of useful constituents of milk which are very important for normal body growth.

AGM particles are capable of swelling, because of their hydrophilic polymers that allow AGM to absorb large amounts of fluid, namely, 30 to 1000 times their initial weight. To gain insight in the swelling behavior of a bed of AGM particles, we have developed a grain-scale model and we have tested the model by comparing it to experiments. The grain-scale model is based on the Discrete Element Method (DEM) and the Pore Finite Volume (PFV) method, which we have extended to include the swelling of individual AGM particles. Using this model, we can simulate the behavior of individual particles inside a water-saturated bed of swelling AGM particles while taking into account the hydro-mechanical effect arising from the presence of pore water. The model requires physical input parameters, which were obtained from literature for the particle stiffness and the friction angle, while the particle size distribution and the diffusion coefficient were measured in experiments.

  • Egyptian Labor Corps: Logistical Laborers in World War I and the 1919 Egyptian Revolution
    EGYPTIAN LABOR CORPS: LOGISTICAL LABORERS IN WORLD WAR I AND THE 1919 EGYPTIAN REVOLUTION A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Kyle J. Anderson August 2017 © 2017 i EGYPTIAN LABOR CORPS: LOGISTICAL LABORERS IN WORLD WAR I AND THE 1919 EGYPTIAN REVOLUTION Kyle J. Anderson, Ph. D. Cornell University 2017 This is a history of World War I in Egypt. But it does not offer a military history focused on generals and officers as they strategized in grand halls or commanded their troops in battle. Rather, this dissertation follows the Egyptian workers and peasants who provided the labor that built and maintained the vast logistical network behind the front lines of the British war machine. These migrant laborers were organized into a new institution that redefined the relationship between state and society in colonial Egypt from the beginning of World War I until the end of the 1919 Egyptian Revolution: the “Egyptian Labor Corps” (ELC). I focus on these laborers, not only to document their experiences, but also to investigate the ways in which workers and peasants in Egypt were entangled with the broader global political economy. The ELC linked Egyptian workers and peasants into the global political economy by turning them into an important source of logistical laborers for the British Empire during World War I. The changes inherent in this transformation were imposed on the Egyptian countryside, but workers and peasants also played an important role in the process by creating new political imaginaries, influencing state policy, and fashioning new and increasingly violent repertoires of contentious politics to engage with the ELC.

In popular human habitats, weasel index limited to autumn months in streets and houses at the two Governorates.
