the ultrasound assisted emulsification microextraction (usaeme) method followed byinductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (icp-aes) was used for preconcentration anddetermination of bismuth (bi), indium (in) and lead (pb) in the plant azolla filiculoides lam. calix [4] pyrrole was used as a chelating agent and tetrachloroethylene was selected as extraction solvent. the main para...

the chromosomal spread and karyotype of bleak (alburnus alburnus) from anzali lagoon were identified using tissue squashing techniques with injection of 0.5ml/100g body weight of 0.01% colchicines solution in fish fingerlings. kidney and gill tissues were then extracted and chopped in kcl 0.045m for 20 min and fixed in carnoy solution in 3 stages. the chromosomal spreads were stained in 20% gim...

measuring salinity of water at different depths along six transacts at the mouth of the wetland and along five tributaries connecting the wetland to the sea the extent of caspian sea penetration into anzali wetland was determined. the results demonstrated a depth-dependent salinity gradient extending up to 10 kilometres into the wetland. a pattern of saltwater and freshwater interface is presen...

OBJECTIVES Rapid urbanisation has often meant that public infrastructure has not kept pace with growth leading to urban slums with poor access to water and sanitation and high rates of diarrhoea with greater household costs due to illness. This study sought to determine the monetary cost of diarrhoea to urban slum households in Kaula Bandar slum in Mumbai, India. The study also tested the hypot...
