Background & Aims of the Study: The use of qualitative indicators is one of the ways of water quality of river water. The purpose of this study is Khorramrood River of Khorramabad of water quality using water quality index (NSFWQI) and GIS that is a Geographic Information System . Materials & Methods: In this cross-sectional study, qualitative parameters needed to calculate NSFW...

Background & Aims of the Study:  Corrosion and scaling are the most common problems of water facilities. Corrosion imposes many financial and health loss on system and consumer respectively, scaling also causes clogging and head loss in network. The purpose of this study is to determine the corrosion and scaling potential of water supply sources of Qom villages. Materials &...

the effects of camp-analogue dibutyryl-camp and anticalmodulin w-7 were studied on de novo synthesis and secretion of lipids in cultures of hepatoma mcardle rh7777 cells and normal rat hepatocytes. dibutyryl-camp and w -7 separately caused a significant decrease in the secretion of de novo synthesized triacyl [3h]glycerol in both cultures of mcardle cells and rat hepatocytes. the inhibitory eff...

The adenine nucleotides, 5'-AMP and 3',5'-cyclic AMP block L cells in the S-phase of the cell cycle. The intracellular level of cyclic AMP is reduced after incubation of cells with 5'-AMP, and rates of uridine transport are increased after incubation with either 5'-AMP or cyclic AMP. On the contrary, cyclic AMP levels are increased and uridine transport decreased in cells treated with an inhibi...

Abstract. To provide long-term air pollutant exposure estimates for epidemiological studies, it is essential to test the feasibility of developing land-use regression (LUR) models using only routine quality measurement data and evaluate transferability LUR between nearby cities. In this study, we developed evaluated intercity annual-average ambient respirable suspended particulates (PM10), fine...

Abstract. Atmospheric CH4 mole fractions resumed their increase in 2007 after a plateau during the 1999–2006 period, indicating relative changes sources and sinks. Estimating by exploiting observations within an inverse modeling framework (top-down approaches) is powerful approach. It is, nevertheless, challenging to efficiently differentiate co-located emission categories sinks using alone. As...

Objective: Class B carbapenemases are bacterial enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of β-lactam core antibiotics, except for monobactams. The objective this study was to identify carbapenemase gene blaIMP in genus Klebsiella at Charles De Gaulle Pediatric University Hospital (CHUP-CDG) Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Methods: involved 17 strains responsible human infection and isolated from various...

Abstract. The nitrogen-15 (15N) natural abundance composition (δ15N) in soils or plants is a useful tool to indicate the openness of ecosystem N cycling. This study aimed evaluate influence experimental warming on soil and plant δ15N. We applied global meta-analysis method synthesize 79 76 paired observations δ15N from 20 published studies, respectively. Results showed that mean effect sizes un...

Abstract. We present speleothem fluid inclusion ?18Of and ?2Hf values from Larga Cave, Puerto Rico, that cover the interval between 46.2 15.3 ka on millennial scale, including Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) several stadial interstadial cycles. The data set can be divided in two main clusters of stable isotope compositions water with respect to global meteoric line (GMWL), which coincide strong vari...

Annona muricata L. and squamosa are tropical species whose fleshy fruit is edible. They offer real possibilities for socio-economic use, particularly in the fields of medicine, nutrition, ecosystem conservation poverty alleviation. This study was set up to evaluate different methods micropropagation from juvenile material regeneration these species. Thus, MS medium supplemented with [BAP 2 mg·L...
