purpose: to evaluate the correlation between corneal power and corneal horizontal white to white diameter in myopic patients scheduled for lasik surgery. methods: overall, in 840 eyes of 420 myopic subjects scheduled for lasik, horizontal white to white diameter and mean corneal power were obtained using orbscan ii. pearson correlation test and regression analysis were used to detect any correl...

background and aims. although wearing a white coat is an accepted part of medical and dental practice, it is a potential source of cross-infection. the objective of this study was to determine the level and type of microbial contamination present on the white coats of dental interns, graduate students and faculty in a dental clinic. materials and methods. questionnaire and cross-sectional surve...

abstract the objective of this study was to determine the effect of psychrotrophic bacteria and somatic cells on the physicochemical characteristics of iranian ultrafiltered (uf) white cheese. milks with different numbers of psychrotrophic bacteria (1×106, 5×106 and 10×106 cfu/ml) and low somatic cell counts (scc, <2×105/ml) were selected and uf white cheese trials were produced. in a separate ...

abstract the effect of different larval density of chilo suppressalis walker was evaluated through 2006-2008 on rice infestation in controlled condition of the cages. the results indicated that there were significant effects between dead hearts, white heads and crop yield. the highest dead hearts and white heads were related to the treatment of 32 larvae per m2 and the lowest ones were obtained...

in a greenhouse experiment, the effects of glomus intraradices and indigenous mycorrhizal isolates from soils under plow and no-till treatments on the uptake of 32p placed at 1, 2.5 and 4 cm from the roots of white clover (trifolium repens) in 23, 37 or 46 days after planting were compared.spores of the indigenous fungi were mostly a mixture of glomus mossea, g. clarum, g. caledonium and g....

background and objective: during cheese ripening, some of water insoluble casein change to water soluble nitrogen which are include intermediate hydrohysate protein and free amino acids. materials and methods: these enzymes save their activities in pasteurization temperature and also uht processing. in this study effect of number of pscyrotroph bacteria on physical and chemical properties on uf...
