چکیده

At the Congresses on Tropical Medicine in Rio de Janeiro, several investigators have insisted on the problems connected mith the behaviour of Anopheles after contact with DDT. Though populations showing different responses to DDT could be distinguished by the Excite-Repellency Box Mode1 CIPS, nothing was Itnown wi,th regard tn the cause of these dserences. TO eluc.idate these problems we carried out a selection of AnophPles droparuzzs, based on DDT-irritability (fig. 1). Escaping or not-escaping from a horizontally placed tube, lined with paper impregnated with 1 yo DiD’T ‘in Riisella-o.il, was chosen as criterion for selection. The result of the selection is expressed by log : Percentage escaping fn Percentage escapingfo . Thus

Frequency of extended spectrum beta lactamase producer P. aeruginosa strains isolated from burned patients of Motahari hospital, Teharan, Iran

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen which is naturally resistant to a large range of antibiotics like lots of Beta–Lactams (penicillins, cephalosporins and carbapenems) and may cause additional resistance after unsuccessful treatment. The understanding of beta-lactamase identification and detection in these bacteria is very valuable. In recent years a number of variety of new be...

Quantitative Analysis of DDT by GLC in Different Strains of Culex Fatigans L. by Using Hexane

Estimation of DDT by GLC (gas liquid chromatography) in K.U. strain of Culex fatigans L., shows that 59.68 ng DDT is found after the treatment with 0.175 ppm. In G.I. strain 18.3 ng DDT is found after treatment with 0.325 ppm whereas 4.35 ng DDT is found in L.Y. strain after the treatment with 0.425 ppm.

Distinct element modelling of the mechanical behaviour of intact rocks using voronoi tessellation model

This paper aims to study the mechanical behaviour and failure mechanism of intact rocks under different loading conditions using the grain based model implemented in the universal distinct element code (UDEC). The grain based numerical model is a powerful tool to investigate complicated micro-structural mechanical behaviour of rocks. In the UDEC grain based model, the intact material is simulat...

Research Article: Effects of different dietary supplementation of plant carotenoids on growth, coloration and behaviour of giant gourami, Trichogaster fasciata (Bloch and Schneider, 1801)

Effects of different dietary supplements of plant carotenoid sources on growth, coloration and behavioural activities of Trichogaster fasciata were carried out. Three groups of fish were fed with petal powder of rose (Rosa chinensis), China rose (Hibiscus rosasinensis) and marigold (Tagetes erecta) separately as carotenoid source along with the same basic ingredients for 90 days. The mean final...

This study was conducted to reveal the estrogenic effects of bisphenol A and o, p’-DDT on quailembryos. Thirteen fertilized eggs were used as control (injected with 20 μl corn oil), 15 eggs were injectedwith estradiol 17β (0.04 mg dissolved in 20 μl corn oil), 20 eggs were injected with BPA (2 mg dissolved in20 μl corn oil) and 20 eggs were injected with o, p’-DDT (2 mg dissolved in 20 μl corn ...
