Abnormal bleeding - Reduced blood clotting is a side effect of aspirins and anticoagulants, such as heparin or warfarin. These medications can be helpful in preventing stroke or heart disease, but can cause bleeding problems during oral surgery or treatment for periodontal diseases.
Biomass is all biologically-produced matter based in carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. The estimated biomass production in the world is 104.9 petagrams (104.9 Ã 1015 g â about 105 billion metric tons) of carbon per year, about half in the ocean and half on land.
People have used biomass energyâenergy from living thingsâsince the earliest âcave menâ first made wood fires for cooking or keeping warm. Biomass is organic, meaning it is made of material that comes from living organisms, such as plants and animals. The most common biomass materials used for energy are plants, wood, and waste. These are called biomass feedstocks. Biomass energy can also be a non-renewable energy source. Biomass contains energy first derived from the sun: Plants absorb the sunâs energy through photosynthesis, and convert carbon dioxide and water into nutrients (carbohydrates).
