[Herb]-drug combinations can produce untoward effects when the herbal product perturbs the activity of drug metabolizing enzymes and/or transporters. Despite increasing recognition of these types of herb-drug interactions, a standard system for interaction prediction and evaluation is nonexistent. Consequently, the mechanisms underlying herb-drug interactions remain an understudied area of pharmacotherapy. 2, record 2, English, - herb%2Ddrug%20interaction

L'instrument ASAR [Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar] apporte des réponses très positives sur la problématique de la cartographie des inondations, notamment avec son mode de fonctionnement en polarisation alternée, produit à haute et moyenne résolutions spatiales. [...] Concernant la cartographie des inondations en particuliers, la phase de l'onde radar pourrait apporter des éléments supplémentaires pour infirmer ou confirmer la présence d'eau, mais nécessiterait d'importants développements pour être utilisable en temps rapide pendant la crise. D'autres modes de fonctionnement à haute résolution temporelle, tels que le champ large ou la basse résolution, seraient à évaluer pour réaliser des cartes à très grande échelle, surveiller de grands bassins et disposer ainsi d'une vision d'ensemble de la situation. 2, record 4, French, - cartographie%20des%20inondations

It can now be appreciated that the evaluation of the breadmaking quality of a flour is extremely complicated. To avoid the long and difficult procedure of using baking tests, cereal technologists, in their attempts to predict breadmaking quality, have developed various simple and quick tests on wheat, flour and dough.... Although these so-called "prediction" tests all provide useful information, they cannot replace the baking test. 1, record 5, English, - baking%20test
