beta-2 adrenoceptors in blood vessels are one of the active factors that play a role in regulation of tissue blood flow. in diabetic angiopathy, responsiveness of these receptors is decreased, while that is increased in inflammation. according to these opposite effects, the aim of this study was to investigate the vasodilatory response of knee joint blood vessels to salbutamol (beta-2 adrenocep...

omentin-1 is a novel adipokine that is predominantly secreted by visceral adipose tissue. circulating levels of omentin-1 is inversely related to obesity. there is limited information about the effect of exercise training on serum omentin-1 concentration. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of four weeks of progressive resistance training on serum omentin-1 levels. 16 male wiste...

in order to study, the effect of pre-cooling treatment, osmotic potential and water stress on some population of two species of satureja bachtiarica and satureja sahendica was studied by a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with three replications in laboratory and greenhouse conditions during one year in the gene bank of institute of forests and range lands by the years...

the aim followed in this study was to compare the performance of multiple regression vs neural network models to predict the activity of antioxidant enzymes super oxide dismutase (sod), cat alase (cat), ascorbate pero xidase (apx) and peroxidase (pox) in the shoots of wheat (triticum aestivum), alvand cultivar in a soil polluted with cadmium. the treatments consisted of four levels of cadmium (...

introduction growing use of hydrocarbon constituents in various industries have generated significant quantities of hazardous wastes which lead to environmental pollution. in recent years, the strong global demands for fossil fuels and industrial chemicals have resulted in the release of some of these compounds into soil, water and air.hydrocarbon-contaminated soils are among the important envi...

introduction earth has ever been exposed to environmental hazards. the hazards are continually occurring in the world in the recent years. among them, atmospheric elements have created many human and financial losses in different regions. one of the hazards is dust events and in its severe case is dust storm. it happens more frequently in arid and semiarid regions in deserts and their surroundi...

dielectric properties of agricultural products is one of the most important physical properties of agricultural and food products and these properties are used heavily in developing as new technology for use in agriculture and related industries. therefore, in this study investigated the changes in the dielectric properties of pazhohesh and ghaem varieties of paddy as a dielectric material four...

the present study was designed to evaluate the drought tolerance of new sugar beet monogerm hybrids using polyethylene glycol 6000, under in vitro condition. the experiment was carried out as a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design with four replications in sugar beet seed institute, karaj in 2013. 23 new sugar beet monogerm hybrids with two tolerant and normal controls wer...

the purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of nanosilver colloid as a new antimicrobial agent against erwinia in tissue culture of sugar beet for the recovery of the contaminated doubled haploid plantlets. the nanosilver colloidal solution of 4000 ppm was diluted in different concentrations (0, 50, 75, 100 and 125 ppm) and was added to the solid ms medium. in a factorial experim...

drought affects on all aspects of human actirities seriously as a climatic phenomenon. however, the studies related to this phenomenon based on suitable method are very few. studying the drought features and its prediction can be effective on decreasing of resulted losses or damages. therefore, drought and evaluation of its prediction possibility are studied for some stations of ardabil provinc...
