This young man presented initially and repeatedly over a period of twenty years with symptoms of irritability, depressed and withdrawn mood, impulsivity, out-of-control behavior, and suicidal ideation and behavior. These symptoms occurred with disabling intensity at ages 3 year, 6 1/2 years, and 8 1/2 years, when he had not yet been adequately diagnosed and treated with appropriate psychopharma...

The monitor and prediction of crop developmental stages, particularly harvest time, play an important role in planning greenhouse cropping programs and timetables by cut rose producers. There have been many scientific reports on the application of image analysis technology in estimating greenhouse crop growth stages. In the present research, we studied leaf color variations over time by taking ...

Rose (Rosa hybrida L.) plants grown for cut-flower production in greenhouses produce flowers in flushes year-round. Crop models for this system must handle the cyclical nature of productivity, which is determined by the horticultural production methods. Nutrition was not accounted for in previous rose growth models, since little is known about uptake of the essential nutrients by rose roots. Th...

the kashan erg is one of the most important sand dune complexes in iran. being affected by wind erosion, theerg's borderlands face numerous problems as a result of sand movement. to evaluate the risk of sands moving intoresidential areas near the kashan erg, anemometry data from synoptic stations located in kashan, ardestan, meimeh,naeen, and qom were collected and analyzed to calculate the san...

nanosilver of nanometer-sized silver (ag+) particles (2-5 nm diam) are used in various applications as an anti-microbial. boric acid (h3bo3) is water soluble (ph=7). boric acid is ethylene synthese inhibitor and reduce ethylene production through reducing the acc synthase and acc oxidase delays senescence of flower. in this study of different concentrations of boric acid and nano-silver was eva...

in this study, postharvest characteristics of eight cut rose cultivars (valentine, king pride, prima donna, black baccara, victory, papagayo, royal baccara and yellow island) were investigated in a growth room with temperature of 20 ºc, relative humidity of 50% and light intensity of 10 µmol m-2 s-1 in autumn 2008. among cultivars significant differences were found for all of the attributes eva...

Since its innovative use by Lavoisier at the end of the eighteen-century, calorimetry has been one of the most important foundations of modern science. However, only recently, with the advent of modern and accurate sensors, has it to play a central role in the life sciences. The combination of calorimetric and respirometric studies resulted in a thermodynamic model that represents the rate of s...
