Pulsating heat pipe is an efficient heat exchange device which is being used for cooling and heating recovery. In the present work, we made a closed-loop pulsating heat pipe with six U-turns and we used water in our system. Moreover the use of water-Fe3O4 nanofluid was studied with two different filling ratios 40% and 50% and 1% mass concentration. At the end we calculated heat resistance and h...

BACKGROUND We examined the effects of combined resistance and aerobic training on land versus combined resistance and aerobic training in water in patients with coronary artery disease. METHODS Thirty-four patients were randomly assigned to land exercise (LE, n = 12), water exercise (WE, n = 12), and control (n = 10) groups. The LE group trained 4 times per week, twice with aerobic exercise a...

Wastewater management has been subjected to different treatment technologies using chemical and biological techniques for several decades in order to protect the environment and public health. Biological treatment is based on microbial capability to reduce the pathogens load to achieve the lowest environmental as well as public health risks. However, such treatment is often neglecting the fact ...

2 3 The prevalence of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the marine environment is a growing 4 concern, but the degree to which marine mammals, seabirds and fish harbor these organisms is 5 not well documented. This project sought to identify the occurrence and patterns of antibiotic 6 resistance in bacteria isolated from vertebrates of coastal waters in the northeastern United 7 States. 472 isol...

Hospitals discharge considerable amounts of chemicals and microbial agents in their wastewaters. Problem chemicals present in hospital wastewater belong to different groups, such as antibiotics, X-ray contrast agents, disinfectants and pharmaceuticals. Many of these chemical compounds resist normal wastewater treatment. They end up in surface waters where they can influence the aquatic ecosyste...

Background The insect cuticle covers the whole body and all appendages and has bi-directionnal selective permeability: it protects against environmental stress and pathogen infection and also helps to reduce water loss. The adult cuticle is often associated with a superficial layer of fatty acid-derived molecules such as waxes and long chain hydrocarbons that prevent rapid dehydration. The wate...

seventy poultry farms’ drinking water was tested for escherichia coli contamination in qom province iniran. the cases of colibacillosis from positive farms were also collected and tested. the isolates wereexamined for serotype, detection of virulence genes by multiplex pcr and antibiotic resistance. thirtypoultry farm water samples were e. coli positive (18.57%), although 13 e. coli isolates we...
