Anabasine and anatabine as biomarkers for tobacco use during nicotine replacement therapy.
In this study we determined urine concentration of the tobacco alkaloids anabasine and anatabine, nicotine and its metabolites cotinine, and nornicotine in 99 cigarette smokers and 205 smokeless tobacco users. We also investigated the possibility that anabasine and anatabine can be used as biomarkers for tobacco use during nicotine replacement therapy. Urine samples and data on self-reported to...
متن کاملUse of Urinary Thiocyanate as a Biomarker of Tobacco Smoke
Data from National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey for the years 2005-2010 were used to develop cut off levels for urinary thiocyanate (USCN) to distinguish smokers from nonsmokers aged ≥ 20 years. A cut off of (i) 1840 ng/ml for USCN was able to distinguish smokers from nonsmokers with a sensitivity of 80.7% and a specificity of 80.8%, (ii) 2630 ng/ml for USCN was able to distinguish s...

آب حاصل از بارش منبع تأمین نیازهای بی شمار جانداران به ویژه انسان است و هرگونه کاهش در کم و کیف آن مستقیماً حیات موجودات زنده را تحت تأثیر منفی قرار می دهد. نوسان سال به سال بارش از ویژگی های اساسی و بسیار مهم بارش های سالانه ایران محسوب می شود که آثار زیان بار آن در تمام عرصه های اقتصادی، اجتماعی و حتی سیاسی- امنیتی به نحوی منعکس می شود. چون میزان آب ناشی از بارش یکی از مولفه های اصلی برنامه ...
15 صفحه اولA Novel Reference Current Calculation Method for Shunt Active Power Filters using a Recursive Algebraic Approach
This paper presents a novel method to calculate the reference source current and the referencecompensating current for shunt active power filters (SAPFs). This method first calculates theamplitude and phase of the fundamental load current from a recursive algebraic approach blockbefore calculating the displacement power factor. Next, the amplitude of the reference mains currentis computed with ...
