investigation of desertification trend needs understanding of phenomena creating changes singly or action and reaction together in the manner that these changes were ended up in land degradation. in investigation of pedological criterion onland degradation in quaternary rock units, first, a part of the rude-shoor watershed area was selected. after distinguishing target area, maps of slope class...

Introduction Compartmental analysis allows the mathematical separation of tissues and organs to determine activity concentration in each point of interest. Biodistribution studies on humans are costly and complicated, whereas such assessments can be easily performed on rodents. In this study, we aimed to develop a pharmacokinetic model of 153Sm-maltolate complex as a novel therapeutic agent and...
