In the present study the efficacy of arkas (water distillate) and essential oils of cinnamon and clove is evaluated as a preservative for kwathas. Arkas and essential oils of cinnamon and clove have good preservative property without altering the physico - chemical properties of kwatha.

An oil spill is the accidental or intentional discharge of petroleum products into the environment due to human activities. Although oil spills are actually just a little percent of the total world oil pollution problem, they represent the most visible form of it. The impact on the ecosystems can be severe as well as the impact on economic activities. Oil spill cleanup is a very difficult and e...

In the production of wine distillates, factors influencing their composition, respectively quality, can be divided into following directions: composition grapes (as raw material), technology for its processing and alcoholic fermentation to obtain material, as well method distillation material derive a distillate. Each these is important quality distillate significantly affects concentration che...

BACKGROUND Stomatitis is a disturbing side-effect of chemotherapy that disturbs patients and causes difficulties in patient's drinking, eating and talking, and may results in infection and bleeding. OBJECTIVES This study aimed to investigate the effect of Yarrow distillate in the treatment of chemotherapy-induced stomatitis. PATIENTS AND METHODS This randomized controlled trial study was co...

Background  Apnea is one of the most common problems in preterm neonates. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of aromatherapy on the reduction of apnea, bradycardia, and Pulse Oximetry (SPO2) in premature infants. Materials and Methods In a clinical trial study, 60 preterm neonates randomly divided in two groups and exposed to aromatherapy with Rosa damascenes distillate or distilled...

BACKGROUND Fire eater's lung (FEL) is a distinct form of acute chemical toxic pneumonitis, which is caused by aspiration of flammable petrochemical derivatives used by street performers for 'fire eating'. The optimal management of this condition has not yet been determined. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate patient characteristics, clinical features, treatment, and outcome of...

Problem statement: We have recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves for complex fluids. The modifications include a compositionexplicit data channel for each distillate fraction and temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state. The composition-explicit information is achieved w...

Three insecticides commonly used for mosquito and sand fly control were applied 30 min to 3 h after sunset during June and July 2010, at Camp Buehring, Kuwait, to determine the relative quantity of pesticides to height and distance traveled in a hot desert environment. A BVA dilution oil was used for the control. Oil-based adulticides were sprayed using a truck-mounted Curtis DynaFog Maxi-Pro 4...
