Nuclear Explosions for the National Economy used to put out runaway gas well fires and a methane blow out. There were in fact two programs: All together, the "Program 7" conducted 115 nuclear explosions. Among them: These explosions were financed by various ministries: 51 explosions were financed by the Ministry for Geology, 26 explosions were financed by the Ministry for Natural Gas, 13 explosions were financed by the Ministry for Oil, 19 explosions were financed by the MinSredMash itself (the predecessor of the Federal Atomic Energy Agency). There were two large explosions of 140 kilotons and 105 kilotons; all others were relatively small with an average
Gas gangrene as a degree of loud and distinctive crepitus caused by gas escaping the necrotic tissue. Gas gangrene is caused by exotoxin-producing "Clostridium" species (most often "C. perfringens", and "C. novyi", but less commonly "C. septicum" or "C. ramnosum"), which are mostly found in soil, but also found as normal gut flora, and other anaerobes (e.g., "Bacteroides" and anaerobic streptococci). The exotoxin is commonly found in "C. perfringens" type A strain and is known as alpha toxin. This alpha toxin is a lethal toxin and also known as phospholipase C (lecithinase). It increases vascular permeability and produces necrotizing activity. These environmental
