Application of neutron radiography to investigate changes in permeability in bacteria treated pinus radiata timber
The permeability of softwoods can be enhanced by selective bacterial attack of the pit membranes.In this paper, green flat-sawn Pinus radiata sapwood boards were sprinkled for various exposure times with a nutrient solution containing a mixed bacterial population.The timber samples were subsequently dried and the tangential Microphone Data Cable ab
