in a cross section of the patients scheduled for various operations, the plausability of lidocaine as an induction agent is studied and described. the results were dismaying suggesting, henceforth, that as an induction agent, lidocaine altogether fails to accomplish the assignment assigned to this drug.

the present work investigated the preparation of biodegradable beads with alginate polymer by ionotropic gelation method to improve the control release properties of the antibiotic rifampicin. ionotropic gelation method was applied to prepare beads using calcium chloride (cacl2) as cationic component and alginate as an anionic component. in this method, adding 0.5% w/v polyvinyl alcohol (pva) t...

abstract: warfarin is the most commonly used oral anticoagulant drug in clinical practice with extreme inter and intra-individual variation in pharmacokinetic properties. na valproate, a broad spectrum anticonvulsant agent, is best known for its enzyme inhibition properties and also displacement of protein binding sites. interaction between warfarin and psychotropic drugs including valproate ar...

background: many health problems are related to lifestyle and dietary factors. since ancient times, food additives such as sulfites have been used to preserve foods. diverse effects of sulfites on multiple organs have been reported but its effect on female reproductive organ has not been fully elucidated. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of sodium metabisulfite (smb) on ovar...

Background and aims: Bread is considered as one of the important sources of sodium in the Iraniandiet and salt is the main source of sodium, which is used to produce bread. The assessment of dietaryintake is a reliable method that shows nutritional problems in the community. Therefore, the purposeof this study was to evaluate the intake of salt, sodium, and potassium through b...

among the environmental stresses, salinity is a major limiting factor in world legumes production is considered. in this study, sodium chloride and salicylic acid interaction on growth parameters were investigated in greenhouse with factorial arrangement in randomized complete block design with three replications. the plant consisted of three cultivars of lentil (kimiya, kermanshah and gachsara...

background: sodium arsenite and/ or vasectomy may cause variation in sex hormones which affect pathophysiology of reproductive organs. objective: the aim was to investigate the morphological changes in structure of testis and hormonal imbalance in bilateral vasectomised rats treated with sodium arsenite. materials and methods: four groups of rats: bilateral vasectomy + sodium arsenite, bilatera...

In this Study, vanadium recovery from the steelmaking converter slag was studied. Salt roasting-basic leaching is the process which was applied to separate and extract vanadium from steel making slag. Ground slag was roasted after mixing with determined quantities of sodium carbonate. The effect of time and temperature of roasting and sodium carbonate content were studied. The optimum temperatu...
