A study was conducted to determine pigeons from the urban to performed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry with air acetylene (G.B.C. Advanta) Lead concentration was significantly higher in urban sites compared to rural site. Primary feather of pigeon and tail feather of urban sites had significantly higher lead concentration than their rural counterpart. The result of the present study show...

A method is described for measuring doxepin-related material excreted in urine. Unchanged doxepin and certain doxepin metabolites are oxidized to doxepin ketone with KMnO4. The doxepin ketone is extracted with n-hexane and quantitated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry at the absorption maximum, 266 nm. This method is fast, reproducible, and measures a greater percentage of doxepin-related materi...

This paper presents a case study where competitive e-learning strategies are used in the teaching of an undergraduate Database course in order to develop, in university students, the capacity to actively research and to lead their own learning process. The experience has been carried out in the spring semester (February-June 2007) and is based on the use of the QUEST system. This tool for activ...
