in this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized  using the fungus, aspergillus fumigatus. the effects of three independent variables including glucose content of culture media, initial ph and initial spore concentration on biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles were investigated. these variables affect cell morphology, cell mass, size and morphology of silver nanoparticles and degree of silv...

A greenhouse study was conducted to investigate the effects of nitrogen (N) on wild barley (Hordeum spontaneum Koch) interference with winter wheat (Triticum aestivum var. Pishtaz) by an additive series experiment. The experiment was conducted in a split plot design with 3 replications. Wheat plant height losses were on average 30, 10, and 10% in a wild barley density of 16 plants per pot with ...

oil contamination is one of the most common and usual kinds of pollution in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. one of the economical and effective methods for decreasing or eliminating oil contamination is using plants and microorganisms. soils contain a wide variety of oil decomposing microorganisms, of which pseudomonad, rhodocoous and nocardia are the most important. to evaluate the effect ...

there is a close connection between saltwater intrusion into aquifers and groundwater extraction. freshwater extraction in coastal aquifers is one of the most important reasons for the saltwater intrusion into these aquifers. condition of extraction system such as well depth, discharge rate, saltwater concentration and etc. could affect this process widely. thus, investigating different extract...

 Concentration of heavy and toxic metals Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb and Hg were determined in liver and muscles of Rutilus frisii kutum and their relationships with growth parameters (length, age, condition factor) and hepatosomatic index were examined. Thirty-six fish samples were collected from February through March 2009 caught by beach seine in the southwest parts of the Caspian Sea. Atomic ab...

Summary) When these problems start to have an adverse impact on school performance and behaviour, the child may be diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Research has established that omega3 fatty acids are crucial for healthy infant brain development, and researchers are also finding that omega-3 deficiencies might be related to a range of mental health problems includ...

We examined a group of 105 workers from a primary aluminum plant for the presence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH)-DNA adducts in their WBC and 1-hydroxypyrene in their urine. Workers were recruited from five job categories with different PAH exposure: the anode factory; the bake oven; and the electrolysis and the pot-relining departments. Unexposed workers from the foundry department s...

conclusions according to the results, it can be concluded that the titanium catalyst doped with iron (fe+3-tio2) processes is an appropriate method for reducing atrazine in polluted water resources. results the results demonstrated that the atrazine removal rate increased by decreasing the initial atrazine concentration and the maximum rate of atrazine removal (41.72%) was at ph = 11, atrazine ...
