Typically, engineered wood products are made from the same hardwoods and softwoods used to manufacture lumber. Sawmill scraps and other wood waste can be used for engineered wood composed of wood particles or fibers, but whole logs are usually used for veneers, such as plywood, MDF or particle board.
Mucus is a slippery secretion of the lining of various membranes in the body (mucous membranes). It is a viscous colloid containing antiseptic enzymes (such as lysozyme) and immunoglobulins. Mucus is produced by goblet cells in the mucous membranes that cover the surfaces of the membranes.
Phlegm originates from the lungs. It is different from the mucus that is produced in the nasal passages. A common cause of phlegm is post nasal drip which is a symptom of sinus infections, colds, flu and inhalation of irritants. The diagnosis of the underlying condition could be made from the color of the phlegm.
