in vitro propagation of plant has played a very important role in rapidmultiplication of cultivars with desirable traits and production of healthy and disease-free plants. in the present investigation, the objectives were to optimize the micropropagation of rose hybrid ‘black baccarat’ cultivar. in proliferation step, the nodal segments (1.5 cm) was cultured on both liquid and solid media (ms, ...

PURPOSE Compare patient adherence to glaucoma therapy with morning versus evening dosing schedules. METHODS Retrospective chart review of 41 consecutive patients who had used the Travatan Dosing Aid (Alcon, Fort Worth, TX). Patients had been nonrandomly assigned morning or evening dosing at initiation of usage. Dosing aid data was recorded and analyzed using paired student t-tests where appro...

When the images presented to each eye differ in sharpness, the fused percept remains relatively sharp. Here, we measure this effect by showing stereoscopic videos that have been blurred for one eye, or both eyes, and psychophysically determining when they appear equally sharp. For a range of blur magnitudes, the fused percept always appeared significantly sharper than the blurrier view. From th...

A micro-prism film, with spectral characteristics, is attached on a display panel to show images appearing with + 10° ~ + 50° and -10° ~-50° bright regions and with a + 10° ~-10° dark region. When both eyes separately receive the bright region and the dark region of an image, interocular delay would appear to generate a stereo perception. With the optical simulation software, LightTools 7.3.0, ...

Background and Objectives: Red beet juice, a potential source of valuable nutrients, is widely used as a colorant in food industries. In recent years, to avoid reduction of nutritional values of the red beet during concentration by thermal processing, an osmotic distillation (OD) technique has been suggested. Therefore, the major aim of the present study was to investigate effects of the flow r...

healthcare waste is a by-product of healthcare. poor management of these wastes exposes the community to infections, toxic effects and injuries. the purpose of this study was to investigation the qualities and quantities characteristics of infectious and domestic wastes of dehgolan clinics in kurdistan province. for this purpose health care centers was identify including hospitals, clinics, inf...

kinetics of the chemical leaching of chalcocite from a low-grade copper ore in a ferric sulfate medium was investigated using the constrained least square optimization technique. the experiments were carried out for different particle sizes in both the reactor and column at constant eh, ph, and temperature. the leaching rate increased with increase in the temperature. about 50% of the cu recove...

Early visual areas have neuronal receptive fields that form a sampling mosaic of visual space, resulting in a series of retinotopic maps in which the same region of space is represented in multiple visual areas. It is not clear to what extent the development and maintenance of this retinotopic organization in humans depend on retinal waves and/or visual experience. We examined the corticocortic...

No one would object to the proposition that climacterium means the stage of incipient senility, but there are few works giving more concrete attention to it. It is also generally accepted that climacterium begins when the ovary begins to show signs of senescence, but no one has proved it and it is not yet known whether this hypothesis is tenable. The cases of sundry climacteric disturbances are...
