Background. Skin infections occur commonly and often present therapeutic challenges to practitioners due to the growing concerns regarding multidrug-resistant bacterial, viral, and fungal strains. The antimicrobial properties of zinc sulfate and copper sulfate are well known and have been investigated for many years. However, the synergistic activity between these two metal ions as antimicrobia...

BACKGROUND Vitiligo is the most prevalent pigmentary disorder which occurs worldwide, with an incidence rate between 0.1-4 percent. It is anticipated that the discovery of biological pathways of vitiligo pathogenesis will provide novel therapeutic and prophylactic targets for future approaches to the treatment and prevention of vitiligo. The purposes of this study were evaluating the efficacy o...

OBJECTIVE: The present study was performed to compare the antioxidant effect of two different doses of zinc on lipid oxidation in type 2 diabetic patients. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This double-blind, randomized controlled trial was conducted on 60 type 2 diabetic patients in Yazd Diabetes Research Center in 2008. The subjects were randomly allocated to receive Zinc sulfate (Iran, Alhavi) either ...

In the present study, series of Zn incorporated calcium sulfate bone cements, with different amounts of doped Zn(0, 0.74, 1.97, 3.05, 4.21 wt %) were prepared by mixing a calcium sulfate hemihydrate powder and solutions of zinc sulfate, and the effect of zinc-doping on some physical, physico-chemical, and biological properties of the cements were investigated. Pure calcium sulfate cement was al...

In Turkey, the orchards are being established with ‘Chandler’ walnut variety in different ecologies, nowadays. Plant nutrition applications important for optimum yield and quality terms of growing. this study conducted at two altitudes orchard, foliar application as urea, potassium nitrate, borax, manganese sulfate zinc were sprayed years. Following application, macro micro nutrient content ker...

In the title compound, 2C5H12N+·SO42-·2C3H8N2S, the C=S groups of the two independent 1,3-di-methyl-urea mol-ecules and the sulfur atom of the anion lie on twofold axes. The packing is centred on bis-(piperidinium) sulfate ribbons parallel to the c axis; the cations are hydrogen bonded to the sulfate by N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O inter-actions. The 1,3-di-methyl-urea mol-ecules are also hydrogen bonded to...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES This study evaluated the contribution of residual function to the removal of solutes for which protein binding limits clearance by hemdialysis. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Solute concentrations were measured in 25 hemodialysis patients with residual urea clearances ranging from 0.1 to 6.2 ml/min per 1.73 m2. Mathematical modeling assessed the effect...

Sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] is a multipurpose food crop that can adapt to climate change. productivity be increased by applying chemical fertilizers and arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF). This research aimed assess the effect of AMF application N P concentration gradients support Super 2 KS sorghum accession growth. The plants were grown in sterilized zeolite (coarse fine) inoculated ...

Federal workplace drug testing was initiated during the late 1980s. Since then, numerous methods have been employed to subvert these drug tests, adulteration of urine samples being the most common. A wide variety of adulterants has been reported to date along with suitable methods of their detection. Recently, websites have claimed that zinc sulfate can be an effective adulterant to bypass drug...
