The bacterial species
Neisseria meningitidis
is a major cause of meningitis, with six meningococcal groups (serogroups) causing most cases. A licensed vaccine, MenACWY (Menveo), targets four of these meningococcal serogroups, and another vaccine, 4CMenB (Bexsero), targets serogroup B.
Data sourced from literature for wood density (WD) and fire properties for fifteen Nigerian woods were analysed. The fire properties are ignition time (IT), flame propagation rate (FPR), flame duration (FD), afterglow time (AGT), ash formation (AF) and limiting oxygen index (LOI). The aim was to correlate density and fire properties of wood using eigenvalues and eigenvectors. The analysis tool adopted was the statisticalanalysis system (SAS) where principal component and regression analyses were performed. Based on the presented data and analyses, WD was found to relate well with FPR, AGT and LOI with an adjusted R-Square = 83% while the other three parameters: IT, FD and AF constitute random noise.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
