ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 110 provides a quantitative method for testing the performance of laboratory fume hoods. Through release of a known quantity (4.0 Lpm) of a tracer gas, and subsequent monitoring of the tracer gas concentration in the "breathing zone" of a mannequin positioned in front of the hood, this method allows for evaluation of laboratory hood performance. Standard 110 specifies sulfu...

activities of thirty bacterial strains obtained from plants rhizosphere in different areas against phytophthora drechsleri were assessed through in vitro and greenhouse experiments. dual culture and extracellular metabolites tests were used in in vitro assays. the bacterial strains inhibited growth of p. drechsleri, the highest inhibition zones was belonged to t17-4 strain with 61.904% in dual ...

A young woman with congenital heart disease including dextrocardia presented to us following an out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation (VF) arrest. She had a dual-chamber pacemaker inserted already for bradycardia. Therewere concerns over the risk of baffle occlusion due to multiple transvenous wires. She received an entirely right-sided subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillator wit...

recently, lotfi et al. [10] established an equivalence model between the output-oriented dual ccr model and multiple objective linear programming (molp) and used an interactive method for finding target unit on efficiency frontier such that the decision maker preferences can be taken into account. however their method is not applicable for situations in which some outputs are undesirable and ne...

soybean, glycine max (l.) merr is one of the most important oilseed plants in the world and phythophthora root and crown rot is a significant limiting factor for its planting. in the present study the antagonistic effect of 12 trichoderma spp. in vitro and these trichoderma spp. in combination with bradyrhizobium japonicum in vivo on phytophthora sojae and soybean growth were tested. in laborat...

The aim of the present paper is to provide a unitary exposition on possible representations for positively homogeneous functions in the dual space. Starting from the classical Minkowski–Hörmander duality result of convex analysis, we develop a scheme in order to associate to a positively homogeneous function families of sublinear functionals representing it. Such dual description allows us to c...

The present study seeks to investigate the potentiality of the translation task as a testing method for measuring reading comprehension. To achieve this objective, two types of translation tests, open-ended and multiple-choice tests, and two types of reading comprehension tests, multiple-choice reading comprehension and open-ended cloze tests were developed in this study. The reliability of the...

chronic granulomatous disease (cgd) is a rare inherited disorder characterized by inability of phagocytes to generate oxygen radicals needed for intracellular killing of phagocytic microorganisms. we report a 2.5-year-old iranian female with multiple liver abscesses. she was admitted in surgical ward because of abdominal pain and fever for one month duration that had no response to conventional...
