Cervical epithelial tumors are distinguished according to the tissue of origin, either as adenocarcinomas(tumors originating in the endocervical glandular epithelium) or squamous carcinomas(tumors originating in the ectocervical squamous epithelium). Generally, such tumors develop from precancerous lesions that are also classified according to origin and degree of cell transformation, as squamous or glandular lesions of low and high grade... From a histological point of view, precancerous lesions are characterized by abnormal cell proliferation, increased mitotic count, and a loss of alignment and uniformity of individual cells within the normal architecture of epithelial tissue. They may spontaneously regress, or may persist for a long time without evolving into invasive forms, and are therefore amenable to conservative treatment... 4, record 1, English, - precancerous%20lesion

Note that if were making a geologic map, we could draw a line on the map that separates the pelitic rocks containing only Pyrophyllite from those containing Kyanite + Quartz. Such a line(a surface in 3 dimensions) is called an isograd(iso-same, grad-grade). In this case, since it represents the first appearance of Kyanite, we call it the Kyanite Isograd... If we continue walking along the direction that T & P increased in these rocks during metamorphism, we would eventually come to another place where in the pelitic rocks the mineral assemblage changes. This time the change is from Kyanite + Quartz to Sillimanite + Quartz. Again, we can draw a line on the map that indicates this change in mineral assemblage, this time calling it the Sillimanite Isograd. Just like before, this represents the point on the phase diagram, above, where the geothermal gradient intersected the boundary for the reaction... Because the sandstone and the limestone do not contain Kyanite, the isograd does not appear in these rocks, but we can still extrapolate its position across the map or outcrop. 3, record 12, English, - sillimanite%20isograd

Although one of the primary aims in durum wheat milling is to produce a speck-free product, bran specks in the final product are unavoidable. If wheat is improperly cleaned, foreign material such as earth pellets or insect fragments may also appear as black specks; kernels damaged by severe smudge, mildew, black point or ergot will also cause speckiness. Since a specky product is undesirable, one test for checking the efficiency of milling is the determination of number of specks per unit area of semolina. The definition of "speck" is not clear cut and differentiation must be made between bran specks and other dark or black specks. Insufficient cleaning of wheat, presence of damaged kernels in low grade wheats, and inefficient purification contribute to speckiness. Normally, the number of specks is reported as specks per 100 square centimetres. 2, record 17, English, - specks

Criteria for judging quality. Flour color: A very simple way to determine color differences in different batches of flour is to look at the color of different types of flour under a sheet of glass. This can be done with more than one flour at a time. This method not only facilitates a comparison of the whiteness of different flours but allows for an inspection for impurities. The flour should have a ..."perfectly regular consistency and not contain any specks". This obviously does not pertain to mixed grain or to other than white flours. 3, record 17, English, - specks

Bien que l'absence de piqûres soit une des caractéristiques les plus recherchées des semoules, les piqûres de son sont inévitables dans le produit final. Avec des blés mal nettoyés, divers corps étrangers (terre, fragments d'insectes) peuvent également apparaître comme des piqûres noires, tandis que les grains fortement avariés par la moucheture, le mildiou, la rouille ou l'ergot présenteront également des piqûres. Comme un produit piqué est indésirable, la détermination du nombre de piqûres par unité de surface de semoule constitue un test permettant de vérifier l'efficacité de la mouture. La définition du terme «piqûre» est imprécise et l'on doit établir une distinction entre celles qui sont causées par le son et les autres piqûres noires ou foncées. Un nettoyage insuffisant du blé, la présence de grains endommagés dans les blés de qualité inférieure et un sassage défectueux sont autant de causes possibles de la présence de piqûres.

Two commonly noted phenomena are the reorganization of exsolution bodies and the destruction of colloform textures.... A general decrease in the incidence of colloform textures with an increasing grade of metamorphism has been reported from pyritic deposits in the Urals, Japanese sulphide deposits and Canadian Precambrian volcanic masive sulphide deposits. Both these adjustments generally improve the ores from the point of view of the mineral processor. Exsolution bodies do not pass with their host grains into the wrong concentrate and the replacement of colloform textures by granular intergrowths leads to better mineral separation during grinding. 1, record 24, English, - colloform%20texture

Textures et structures colloformes. [...] Il s'agit de dépôts en couches concentriques très fines, convexes vers la surface libre - ou la plus jeune - souvent mamelonnées et enrobant fréquemment des fragments de gangue. On a alors un cas particulier de texture concentrique ou «en cocardes». Ces surfaces courbes [...] peuvent [...] indiquer [...] une origine colloïdale et la précipitation rythmique à partir d'un gel, d'ou leur nom de «colloformes». [...] Les textures et structures colloformes se rencontrent le plus fréquemment dans la zone superficielle; elles sont alors d'origine supergène et un signe de basse température. Mais elles se rencontrent aussi plus profondément, dans des minéralisations hypogènes de température assez basse (cas de la pechblende). 1, record 24, French, - texture%20colloforme

Pisolithes et matrice sont fendillés et, dans ces fentes, on observe parfois de la gibbsite, de la boehmite ou du diaspore bien cristallisés [...] De telles structures ne peuvent s'expliquer que par un état colloïdal de la matière originelle, qui était un gel alumino-ferrique. Elles rentrent dans la catégorie de ces structures que l'on qualifie de «colloformes». 1, record 24, French, - texture%20colloforme

Les pechblendes montrent fréquemment une structure «colloforme», avec zones d'accroissement concentriques et souvent fissures radiales qui témoignent de la rétraction du gel qui leur a donné naissance. Cette structure, aussi bien que le contexte géologique et minéralogique pour certains gisements [...] montrent que ce sont des dépôts d'assez basse température. 1, record 24, French, - texture%20colloforme

Les termes textures et structures [...] sont fréquemment employés l'un pour l'autre. L'usage veut cependant que : le terme texture désigne les relations spatiales entre deux ou plusieurs minéraux ou minerais; le terme structure concerne la morphologie d'un cristal ou d'un élément minéral étudié, sans tenir compte des relations spatiales entre ce cristal (ou cet élément minéral) et ses voisins. La structure d'un minéral est définie par le contenu de ce minéral, sa morphologie externe (forme et dimension), sa morphologie interne (macles, lacunes de croissance, inclusions, etc.) 3, record 24, French, - texture%20colloforme

Si l'étude des textures relève de l'observation directe [...], les structures ne peuvent être généralement étudiées qu'à l'aide d'instruments physiques ou de tests chimiques. En effet, l'échelle des observations est différente, les structures étant [...] de moindre dimension que les textures. 3, record 24, French, - texture%20colloforme
