No. There are diseases that can be transmitted from birds to people, especially if a person has a compromised immune system. These include salmonellosis, aspergillosis and psittacosis. Birds who come to the Alaska Raptor Center with these diseases are kept in isolation, away from contact with humans.
What is Cathodic Protection? Cathodic protection prevents corrosion by converting all of the anodic (active) sites on the metal surface to cathodic (passive) sites by supplying electrical current (or free electrons) from an alternate source. Usually this takes the form of galvanic anodes, which are more active than steel.
Definition. Method of protection for iron and steel against electrochemical corrosion. Two types of cathodic protection are: (1) Active, in which a low voltage (usually 40 to 50 volt) direct current is imposed between the exposed parts of a structure and the ground.wo types of cathodic protection are: (1) Active, in which a low voltage (usually 40 to 50 volt) direct current is imposed between the exposed parts of a structure and the ground.
