Two Capillary Zone electrophoresis (CZE) methods were developed in this study, one using an acidic buffer (sodium citrate pH = 2.5) and the other using a basic buffer (sodium tetraborate pH = 9.8). The two methods were compared on the basis of repeatability and reproducibility of results and the CZE method developed with the basic buffer was then selected for further studies. The method was ful...

introduction: stroke is the third important reason of death in adults and an important cause of adult disability. previous studies suggest that tgf-alpha can induce neurogenesis after stroke. here in, we studied neurogenesis effects of the tgf-alpha on subventricular zone following ischemia-reperfusion. male wistar rats (250-300 g) were divided into ischemia and treatment groups. after inductio...

The objective of the study was to evaluate spatial effects of adopting environmental criteria for wind farm siting, i.e., the criteria related to the settlement system and those with regards to landscape values. The set of criteria was elaborated on the basis of literature and experience-based knowledge. Some of the criteria selected are legally binding. The analyses were carried out with the u...

Water is an important natural element of our environment, and its management security are also serious concerns. Agricultural non-point source pollution (NPSP) one the major sources contaminants causing water quality degradation. A riparian buffer zone a vegetative cover adjacent to channels that positively contributes pollutant filtration sediment trapping. It has potential filter nutrients, r...

In spatial analyses of causes or health effects of environmental pollutants, small units of analyses are usually preferred for internal environmental homogeneity reasons but can only be done when fine resolution data are available for most units. Objectives of this study were to determine which land use practices were spatially associated with ground water nitrate concentrations across Prince E...
