چکیده

The nutritional factors which affect lead absorption have been studied. Synthetic diets of known composition were compounded to contain 0-075% Pb as PbCl2 labelled with 203Pb. Rats were exposed to lead for periods of 48 hr. The dietary intake was then measured and the absorption of lead determined by means of a whole-body counter. Lead absorption was increased by high fat, low mineral, low protein and high protein diets but was decreased by high mineral diet. Low fat, low fibre, high fibre, low vitamin and high vitamin diets had no effects on lead absorption.

The Influence of Fiber Crimp on Acoustic Performance of Polypropylene Fibrous Batt

This paper reports on the effect of fiber crimp frequency on sound absorption capability of staple polypropylene nonwoven batts. Stuffer box was used to impart crimp to spun tow. Crimping of the tow renders the fibers the required textile applicability. In this work, polypropylene batts composed of staple fibers with linear densities of 9, 14, and 18 denier were employed. Three crimp frequency ...

THE INFLUENCE OF pH AND UV VISIBLE ABSORBTION ON HYDROLYSIS STAGE AND GEL BEHAVIOR OF GLASSES SYNTHESIZED BY SOL-GEL

Abstract: Lead-containing glass borosilicate was synthesized by Sol-gel technique using metalalkoxids such as tetraethyleorthosilicate (TEOS), Al-sec-butoxide and trimethyl borate. The sol containing TEOS converts to gel during drop wise addition of Al-alkoxide while inorganic lead salt was added in the last stage of gelation to prepare the alcogels. The specimens were dried at room tempera...

Influence of shielding gas composition on weld profile in pulsed Nd:YAG laser welding of low carbon steel

Weld area and weld depth/width ratio can be considered to be of the most important geometrical factors in pulsed laser welding. The effects of carbon dioxide and oxygen additions to the argon shielding gas on the weld properties in pulsed laser welding of low carbon steel is investigated. Presence of carbon dioxide and oxygen up to 10 and 15 percent respectively decreases the weld geometrical f...
