shape-selective methylation of naphthalene (naph) over sapo-11 zeolite was carried out in a fixed-bed flow reactor under atmospheric pressure. some zeolites, such as h-beta (hβ), husy and zsm-5 were also evaluated for comparison with sapo-11 zeolite.the results showed that sapo-11 exhibited higher stability, higher selectivity of  2,6-dimethylnaphthalene (2,6-dmn), and higher 2,6-/2,7-dmn ratio...

objective(s): 3, 4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (mdma) one of the methamphetamine derivatives that affect the reproductive system, has not been well understood. many young people are consumers of drugs such as mdma that can affect their reproductive capability. apoptosis is the main mechanism for male infertility. pentoxifylline (ptx) increases camp intracellularly and reduces tumor necrosis f...

the aim of this research was to survey of using soy protein isolates and tragacanth gum as egg substitutes in mayonnaise formulation. the mayonnaise prepared with difierent compositions of soy protein isolate, egg, and tragacanth by applying the optimal mixture design method and effect of this substitution on its stability, heat stability, viscosity, texture, physicochemical and sensory charact...

plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (pgpr) is an alternative to chemical pesticides against harmful microorganisms especially soil-borne diseases. rhizoctonia solani is one of the most important soil-borne fungal pathogens that causes serious damages to important crops. in this study, to screen successful pseudomonas bacterial isolates, the inhibition of pathogen growth was evaluated in-vitro....

{sl let $[n]={1,dots, n}$ be colored in $k$ colors. a rainbow ap$(k)$ in $[n]$ is a $k$ term arithmetic progression whose elements have different colors. conlon, jungi'{c} and radoiv{c}i'{c} cite{conlon} prove that there exists an equinumerous 4-coloring of $[4n]$ which is rainbow ap(4) free, when $n$ is even. based on their construction, we show that such a coloring of ...

Objective(s):Estrogen (E2) has neuroprotective effects on blood-brain-barrier (BBB) after traumatic brain injury (TBI). In order to investigate the roles of estrogen receptors (ERs) in these effects, ER-α antagonist (MPP) and, ER-β antagonist (PHTPP), or non-selective estrogen receptors antagonist (ICI 182780) were administered. Materials and Methods: Ovariectomized rats were divided into 10 gr...

OBJECTIVE Angiotensin II (AII) has been shown to increase endothelial NAD(P)H oxidase activity, which is a source of superoxide anion that in turn may induce the formation of peroxynitrite. Estrogen (E2) has been reported to have vascular protective effects. In this study, we hypothesized that E2 reduces the AII-induced expression of NAD(P)H oxidase and peroxynitrite in endothelial cells. MET...
