It was recognized for its superior bearing and discipline, fighting in the Croatian War and the Bosnian War during the Yugoslav Wars. Considered one of the most feared and effective paramilitary forces during the wars, the unit was also responsible for numerous war crimes and massacres. History and organization The SDG was created on 11 October 1990 by twenty members of the Red Star Belgrade football club Ultra group Delije Sever. The rowdy football hooligans of the ''Delije'' ("Heroes") club-who were devoted to the Red Star Belgrade football team-were seen as a serious social problem by the late 1980s, and the gangster Ražnatović had taken over the ''Delije'' club at the request of the Ministry of the Interior as a way to control the hooligans.

Secoisolariciresinol Diglucoside
Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside (SDG) is an antioxidant phytoestrogen present in flax, sunflower, sesame, and pumpkin seeds. In food, it can be found in commercial breads containing flaxseed. It is a precursor of mammal lignans which are produced in the colon from chemicals in foods. Extraction Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside can be isolated from de-fatted (hexane solvent extraction, extraction) flaxseed by solvent extraction, extraction of the lignan polymer precursor with a water/acetone mixture, followed by acetone removal and alkaline hydrolysis. Studies on biological effects Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside slows the growth of human breast cancer in mice. Secoisolariciresinol diglucoside may be manipulated by different CYP enzymes in Eukaryotes. Due to its inherent size of 687Da, it will not pass the Blood–brain barrier, Blood–Brain Barrier (which is somewhat limited to molecules smaller than Lipinski's rule of five, 500Da). For example, in one Histology group ...

Sudanese Pound
The Sudanese pound (Arabic: ; abbreviation: LS in Latin, in Arabic, historically also £Sd; ISO code: SDG) is the currency of the Republic of the Sudan. The pound is divided into 100 piastres (or ''qirsh'' () in Arabic). It is issued by the Central Bank of Sudan. The pound fell for the first time since 1997 after the United States imposed economic sanctions on Sudan. The Sudanese pound continued its decline to an unprecedented number, falling to LS 53 against the dollar. This situation, which drained all economic measures, led to heavy losses in the external repercussions of the Sudan as a whole, in the light of the government cut, interrupted by some of the failed actions announced by the Central Bank of Sudan, a severe shortage of liquidity. The Sudanese pound fell against the US dollar after the Central Bank of Sudan announced the lifting of the cash reserve to counter inflation. Since the secession of South Sudan in 2011, Sudan has suffered from a scarcity of f ...
