background and objectives: soybean (glycine max l.) is the most important oil crop having the largest area under cultivation in the world. every year, water stress causes great damages on crops in the world, particularly in iran with arid and semi-arid climate so application of materials such as zeolite in soil can reduce the adverse effects of water stress. however, the effect of zeolite in in...

extended abstract   introduction the most important indicator of climate in a region is vegetation community. climate can be different over large areas, because of changes in vegetation community. vegetation influences weather and climate in its surrounding areas mostly by way of evapotranspiration and albedo so they play a role in the earth’s energy balance. these effects on the earth’s energy...

our study performed upon an extended series of 28 compounds of 1,2,4-triazole derivativesthat demonstrate substantial in vitro antimicrobial activities by serial plate dilution method,using quantitative structure-activity relationship (qsar) methods that imply analysis ofcorrelations and multiple linear regression (mlr); a significant collection of moleculardescriptors was used e.g., edge adjac...

new derivatives of 2-[2-(2-chlorophenoxy)phenyl]-1,3,4-oxadiazole as candidates for agonistic effect on benzodiazepine receptors were synthesized. conformational analysis and superimposition of energy minima conformers of the novel compounds on estazolam, a known benzodiazepine agonist, revealed that the main proposed benzodiazepine pharmacophores were well matched. in pharmacological evaluatio...

a proteomic approach was conducted to further understand the mechanism of plant responses to salinity in hordeum bulbosom. three-week-old seedlings were treated with 300 mm of nacl for 21 days. total proteins of fourth leaf were extracted and separated by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. more than 500 protein spots were reproducibly detected, including 46 spots that were up-regulated and 16...

introduction nowadays because of various economic problems in rural areas it is necessary to pay attention to new economic activities such as tourism, in order to overcome economic challenges as well as achieving sustainable development goals. estimating tourist's willingness to pay and analyzing the affecting factors on it, along with the economical and social demands of people could dema...

human resource productivity is an important subject in theory and practice, so increase of productivity is the first priority in most of organizations. the main purpose of most organizations is creating value for their shareholders. so it is necessary to understand effect of human resource productivity in achieving this goal and find the obstacles. the purpose of this research is examining the ...

some specific and non-specific immune variables of rainbow trout were assessed following vaccination of fish with formalin killed cells (fkc) and fkc containing extra cellular products (ecp) of s. iniae. rainbow trout weighing 80-100 g were vaccinated by intraperitoneal (i.p), dip and oral routes using fkc and fkc plus ecp with or without fround adjuvant (fa) at 16-17°c.antibody titration, lyso...

with the aim to examine lead tolerance of populus nigra (clone 62/154) in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, a greenhouse experiment was carried out in a factorial randomized complete scheme with two factors 1) fungal inoculation in 4 levels (control, inoculation with glomus mosseae, inoculation with g. intraradices and inoculation with g. mosseae + g. intraradices) and 2) lead in 4 l...

results aβ (1-42) stimulated the production of the proinflammatory cytokines il6, il1β, tnfα, and il18 in both the primary microglia cell culture and the b92 cell line. both the raav-il4 construct and the ril-4 protein were found to inhibit production of the most important aβ (1-42)-induced proinflammatory cytokine mrnas in the two types of cells with different patterns. conclusions it seems th...
