Mathematical relationships between metrics of chemical bioaccumulation in fish.
Five widely used metrics of bioaccumulation in fish are defined and discussed, namely the octanol-water partition coefficient (KOW ), bioconcentration factor (BCF), bioaccumulation factor (BAF), biomagnification factor (BMF), and trophic magnification factor (TMF). Algebraic relationships between these metrics are developed and discussed using conventional expressions for chemical uptake from w...
متن کاملon translation of phatic communion and socio-cultural relationships between the characters of the novels
phatic communion is a cultural concept which differs across cultures. according to hofstede (2001), the u.s. tends to have individualistic culture; however, asian countries tend to have collectivistic cultures. these cultures view phatic communion differently. in individualistic cultures like u.s., phatic communion reflects speakers’ socio-cultural relationships in conversations. to see whether...
15 صفحه اولHeavy metals bioaccumulation in fish of southern Iran and risk assessment of fish consumption
Background: This study purposed to assess the health risks of heavy metals including nickel (Ni), chromium (Cr), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb) in three widely-consumed fish from the coast of Bandar Abbas (Persian Gulf) and to determine the maximum amounts allowed for consumption according to the degree of contamination. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in the summer and fall of ...
متن کاملUnveiling Relationships between Regions of Interest and Image Fidelity Metrics
This paper presents the results of two computational experiments designed to investigate whether the success of recent image fidelity metrics can be attributed to the fact that these metrics implicitly incorporate region-of-interest information. Modified versions of four metrics (PSNR, WSNR, SSIM, and VIF) were created by incorporating spatially varying weights chosen to maximize correlation be...
متن کاملBioaccumulation and Depuration of Copper in the Kidney and Liver of a Freshwater Fish, Capoeta fusca
Background: This study aims to investigate the patterns of bioaccumulation and depuration of copper in the selected kidney and liver of Capoeta fusca. Methods: The fish were collected between September and November 2010 from a qanat in Birjand. They were exposed to two types treatments with copper (0.25 and 0.75 mg/L) for a period of 41 days. The fish under study were exposed to the above-ment...
