The development of an optical pH sensor based on immobilization of quinizarin (1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone) on a triacetylcellulose membrane was described. The resulting membrane exhibited fast color change from yellow to violet, while changing the pH in alkaline region. The immobilized quinizarin showed a broader dynamic range from (pH 9.4-11.4) with respect to free form (pH 8.8-10.4). The sens...

in the present study, the soil and water assessment tool (swat 2000) model was tested on both a monthly and yearly basis and applied to the kordan watershed, located in iran. the main objective of the research was to assess the accuracy of the model in sediment-yield and surface water bicarbonate concentration estimation. the attributes of sub-watersheds, tributary channels and the main channel...

background: fasciolosis, caused by the liver flukes of the genus fasciola , is one of the most prevalent diseases of domestic livestock and human throughout the world, imposing considerable economic losses. the present study was aimed to assess the effects of different ph values on hatching rate of fasciola miracidia . methods: the flukes were isolated from the infected livers of the slaughtere...

conclusions changes of ph could remarkably affect the efficiency and oxidation rate of mtbe. in particular, the amount of kap in terms of oxidation declines substantially by moving away from the optimum ph range. in this study, ph 3.5 was considered as the optimal ph in h2o2/nzvi/ultrasonic oxidation process, with the elimination of about 89.56% of the high mtbe concentration. in general, we ca...

در میان شبکۀ معابر شهری، راه‌های اضطراری امدادرسانی حین زلزله، به‌ویژه مرحلۀ پاسخ به بحران، نقش مهمی ایفا می‌کنند. حفظ عملکرد این شبکه از معابر، ساعات اولیۀ پس اهمیت بسزایی دارد. محافظت و مقاوم‌سازی اجزای آسیب‌پذیر شبکه، به‌خصوص پل‌ها، پیش وقوع تأثیر شایان توجهی کاهش خسارات آسیب‌ها اغلب اوقات تمامی آسیب‌پذیر، به‌دلیل محدودیت بودجه، عملاً ناممکن است. ایجاب می‌کند که با شناسایی دقیق گزینه‌های ابتد...
