L'expédition «Autour du monde», entreprise dans le but de réunir des fonds pour la recherche d'un traitement des lésions de la moelle épinière, est revenue au Canada lorsque le quadriplégique canadien Mike Nemesvary a franchi le 49e parallèle sous la Peace Arch internationale, au sud de Vancouver. Le parrainage d'entreprises, Pfizer Canada Inc. en tête, a rendu possible l'expédition «Autour du monde». «Nous souhaitons que notre engagement à l'égard de l'incroyable périple de Mike incite d'autres entreprises et d'autres personnes au Canada à appuyer la recherche sur les lésions de la moelle épinière», déclare M. Jean-Michel Halfon, président et chef de la direction de Pfizer Canada. Parmi les autres parraineurs, mentionnons We Care Home Health Services, Minto Developments Inc. et le gouvernement du Canada. Les sommes recueillies grâce à l'expédition «Autour du monde» seront gérées conjointement avec l'Association canadienne des paraplégiques. 1, record 3, French, - exp%C3%A9dition%20%C2%ABAutour%20du%20monde%C2%BB

Dans le cas des organes végétaux, la teneur en eau est généralement très supérieure à un et dépasse souvent dix. On utilise également les termes de teneur en eau relative ou rapport de la masse d'eau présente à la masse d'eau maximale contenue dans l'organe à pleine turgescence. La détermination de la teneur en eau s'obtient par pesée avant et après passage à l'étuve. Pour déterminer la teneur en eau relative des organes végétaux, la pesée avant et après passage à l'étuve doit être répétée sur un échantillon que l'on a laissé flotter dans l'eau un temps suffisant pour assurer la pleine hydratation des tissus. 1, record 4, French, - teneur%20en%20eau%20relative
