Palynological and Palynofacies analysis combined with sedimentological studies have been performed on Dalichai Formation, northeast of Semnan, in order to define its paleoenviromental interpretation. Based on petrographic studies of organic matter, three palynofacies types were recognized as PF-1, PF-2, and PF-3. PF-1 is a characteristic of proximal shelf settings or basin. This palynofacies in...

apoptosis plays an important role in many pathological processes of the central nervous system. the neuroprotective effect of periodic fasting (pf) in contrast to severe fasting or starvation has been suggested. however, these beneficial effects seem to depend on the type and duration of the used feeding protocol. this study was designed to evaluate the effects of different pf protocols on the ...

an identification of the environmental factors regulating the biosynthesis of antibiotics by fluorescent pseudomonads is an essential step toward improving the ability of these bacteria to control plant pathogens. investigation of nine fluorescent pseudomonads, utilized in growth suppression of rhizoctonia solani, the causal agent of root rot and damping-off of bean plants, by the method of hpl...
