In a Stanford University operating room, surgeons peer into the abdomen of a patient, scalpels delicately dancing under the bright lights. They’re removing a gastric tumor, hoping they can cut away every cancerous cell. Just outside the operating room, an unlikely group waits to lend a hand: they’re not medical doctors, but chemists, and they hope to improve the success rate of cancer surgeries...

the aphid species, cinara pini (linnaeus, 1758) reported in our previous work as a new aphid on pinus trees for iran, was described using the classic method and through analysis of coi gene sequence. in the next step, we addressed the efficiency of the entomopathogenic fungus, lecanicillium longisporum (zimm.) zare and gams strain lrc 190, on the aphid. the fungus was administered to the second...

  All desalination methods which are currently used have limitations. A newly designed instrument by Zare A.M. was tested and compared with currently used method in Razi Vaccine and Serum Research Institute(RVSRI). Samples of anti snake venom for desalination was provided by department of anti-serum, RVSRI. Parameters included in this study were time and water consumption during desalination pr...

A new potential energy surface for the lowest electronic state of the O( ) + HCl system is presented. This surface is based on electronic energies calculated at the multireference configuration interaction level of theory with the Davidson correction (MR-CI+Q) using the Dunning cc-pVTZ one-electron basis sets. The ab initio energies thus obtained are scaled using the Scaled External Correlation...

in the course of studies on population dynamics and spatial distribution of the tea cottony scale, pulvinaria floccifera (westwood) (hemi.: coccidae) in the tea gardens of tonekabon (west of mazandaran), in 2008-2009, infected cottony scales were found with hyphae and orange-flask shaped perithecia. they were grown separately on pca and kept under isolated conditions and in incubator at 24-25ºc...
