the mobility and bioavailability of trace elements in the agricultural soils are extremely important in assessing the risk of toxicity to the growing plants. a five step sequential extraction procedure (sep) has been employed to study the speciation of as, sb, cr, cu, cd, pb, zn, ni, fe and mn in 18 soil samples neighboring an industrial complex in isfahan, central iran. enrichment factor (ef) ...

BACKGROUND Detection and quantitation of BCR-ABL1 transcripts are crucial for managing patients with chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Although real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) can be measured on an International Scale (IS), this has not become fully universal. By using a WHO international standard panel established for calibrating secondary standards based on the IS, we...

Knowledge of the probable origin and behaviour of arsenic certainly gives valuable insights into the potential for transfer in the environment and of the risks involved in mining sites. Sequential extraction analyses are common experiments often used to study the origin and behaviour of potentially toxic elements. The method, however, presents some deficiencies, including labor-intensive proced...

The Breakpoint Cluster Region is a protein encoded by the BCR gene with its partially discovered function to generate instructions for producing and also encode serine/threonine kinase protein. There are three cluster regions; major (M-bcr) which high in CML patients, minor (m-bcr) 1-2% contribution CML, micro (μ-bcr) very rare case of CML. ABL1 encodes can as tyrosine kinase. translocation ABL...

Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell disorder in which Bcr-Abl oncoprotein inhibits cell differentiation. Differentiation induction is considered an alternative strategy for treating CML. Activin A, a member of the transforming growth factor-β superfamily, induces erythroid differentiation of CML cells through the p38 MAPK pathway. In this study, treatment of t...

Copper-contained products that are widely employed yearly in viticulture for vine disease management, lead to Cu accumulation topsoil creating an increased risk land workers and leaching and/or uptake of by plants, especially acidic soils where mobility is higher. In this study, the impact two biochar types on distribution redistribution fractions was evaluated four vineyard relation incubation...

Quercetin is a biological flavonoid, which can be found in red kidney bean at high concentration. In this study, a comparison was conducted between traditional and modern extraction methods. Sequential microwave-assisted extraction was used for isolation of quercetin from red kidney bean. The effect of several factors such as particle size of grinded kidney bean, extraction solvent, microwave p...
