This work aims at the modeling of bio-sorption of cadmium(II) onto physically and chemically activated Cajanus cajan (Pigeon pea) husks. Experimental data obtained were fitted to a number of isotherm and kinetic models, and the results interpreted. The monolayer Cd(II) bio-sorption capacities of the husk were found to considerably increase by 2.82 times due to chemical activation, for bio-s...

three hundred twin births from a hospital in tehran, iran have been analyzed for seasonal variation at birth and physical measurements. the results show that the highest twinning rates for mm (5.61), ff (7.73) and mf (5.36) were seen in april, january and september, respectively. the four physical measurements at birth showed non-significant differences among the male and female twins, but mm a...

a experiment was lay out in order to evaluate the effects  of different biofertilizers on yield and yield components of maize at the lorestan provience, iran. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (nitrokara (n1), o4 (n2), o6 (n3) and control (n4)) and three phosphate biofrtilizers (phosphate barvar2 (p1), biozarr (p2), mc1+p...

studies show that any complications including hemorrhage, lack of blood supply, lack of oxygen supply, and death of cells in a tissue, will have a clear effect on electrical properties of that tissue. thus, by measuring impedance of a set of tissues, potential problems of the damaged tissue may be found. since electrical impedance is closely related to the measuring frequency, obviously, every ...

heavy metal contamination in the environment could cause harmful effects both to human health and aquatic life. numerous remediation methods had been developed to encounter with the contamination problem prior to degrade, decrease and to purify the contaminated water at minimal concentration as low as possible. therefore, in current study, commercialized chicken eggshells and hybrid akar putra ...

This study set out to investigate the effect of bio-fertilizers containing nitrogen-fixing bacteria and phosphorus on grain yield and yield components of Faba bean. To this end a factorial experiment on the basis of randomized complete block design with four replications was conducted in Behbahan region at South eastern part of Khuzestan Province of Iran. The experimental treatments included Ni...

background: bio aerosols include airborne micro-organisms such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, etc and their products. exposure to a bio aerosol is linked with a broad spectrum of health problems, including infectious diseases, acute toxic effects, allergies, and cancer. the aim of this study was to evaluate the quality and quantity of bio aerosols found in the air of different wards in valiasr ho...
