Erythrophagocytosis refers to the removal of old and damaged red blood cells by leukocytes and macrophages. Observation of erythrophagocytosis in peripheral blood smear is a rare phenomenon that is mostly observed in paroxysmal cold hemoglobinuria and sporadically in some other pathological conditions. Here, we report a case of erythrophagocytosis by monocyte in peripheral blood of a patient wi...

Purpose This study aims to demonstrate that orange-derived and lemon-derived systems can be used in continuous processes as efficient adsorbents the entrapment of some anionic cationic dyes textile dyeing wastewater effluents. Design/methodology/approach Physically chemically modified orange lemon mesocarps are natural for Basic Blue 3, Yellow 21, Red 18 Green 4 Acid 264, 49 337, all commonly i...

In this research, adsorption experiments were carried out for removal of Basic Blue 41(BB41) dye from an aqueous solution, using coconut fiber particles (CFP) as a low-cost biosorbent. The characteristics of coconut fiber particles weredeterminedwith a scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) techniques. The effects of initial pH, biosorbentdose, contact time,...

in this research, the chloroform (chcl3) removal effectiveness of two water treatment systems including membrane technology and granular activated carbon (gac) adsorption were studied. two bench-scales were designed and set up: 1) nanofiltration (nf) spiral-wound modules and 2) gac adsorption column. chloroform was considered as trihalomethanes (thms) basic indicator compound. the inlet and out...

This research examined the production of a V2O5-g-C3N4 nanocomposite to remove organic dyes from wastewater. To generate nanocomposite, sonication method was applied. The testing with various (basic fuchsin (BF), malachite green (MG), crystal violet (CV), Congo red (CR), and methyl orange (MO)) revealed that has high adsorption ability towards BF, MG, CV, CR in comparison MO dye. It established...

The aim of this study was to compare invasive and non-invasive strains of Shigella flexneri isolated from Tehran by a 120 kDa protein band by SDS-PAGE, electron microscopy of cell culture and Congo red dye methods. Methods: S. flexneri strains were isolated by standard bacterial methods from fecal specimens of children attending to the 3 children’s hospitals. Phenotype analysis for screening v...

The principal threat to the persistence of the endangered red wolf (Canis rufus) in the wild is hybridization with the coyote (Canis latrans). To facilitate idengification and removal of hybrids, assignment tests are developed which use genotype data to estimate identity as coyote, 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 or full red wolf. The tests use genotypes from the red wolves that founded the surviving population ...

Phytochromes are dimeric chromoproteins that regulate plant responses to red (R) and far-red (FR) light. The Arabidopsis thaliana genome encodes five phytochrome apoproteins: type I phyA mediates responses to FR, and type II phyB–phyE mediate shade avoidance and classical R/FR-reversible responses. In this study, we describe the complete in vivo complement of homodimeric and heterodimeric type ...
