The nasal cavity possesses many advantages as a site for drug delivery, such as, ease of administration, applicability for long term treatments and a large surface area for absorption. One important limiting factor for nasal drug delivery is the limited time available for absorption within the nasal cavity due to mucociliary clearance. Several drug delivery systems including different kinds of ...

Background: In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the development of sub-lethal earthworm biomarkers as they are relevant indicators of environmental change and they are among the five key indicators for ecotoxicological testing of industrial chemicals determined by the OECD. In the present study, the effects of an organophosphate pesticide dichlorovos on lysosomes of coelomoc...

children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (adhd) react explosively and inappropriately to emotional stimuli. it could be hypothesized that these children have some impairment in attending to emotional cues. based on this hypothesis, we conducted this study to evaluate visual directions of children with adhd towards paired emotional scenes.thirty boys between the ages of 6 and 11 ye...

In this article differential transformation method (DTMs) has been used to solve neutral functional-differential equations with proportional delays. The method can simply be applied to many linear and nonlinear problems and is capable of reducing the size of computational work while still providing the series solution with fast convergence rate. Exact solutions can also be obtained from the kno...

Nano-sized γ-Al2O3 was synthesized successfully by a simple method using Al2(SO4)3·18H2O as aluminium source and in the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG 2000). FTIR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) were used to characterize the structure and morphology of synthesized powder. The results showed that PEG playe...
