Determination of Iron in Natural samples was carried out using the Spectrophotometric methods. For each Natural Samples (determined in duplicate) ash solution was prepared and its aliquot for analysis by Spectrophotometric methods has been done. Mean value for duplicate analysis of each sample determined by the method was tabulated according to Natural sample. The describe method is very simple...

background: lack of nutritional knowledge is one of the most important reasons of nutritional problems and consequently im­proper practice, which can lead to several complications. this study has been designed in order to compare knowledge, at­ti­tude and practices of the urban and rural households regarding iron deficiency anemia (ida) in boushehr, golestan and sis­tan & balouchestan provinces...

background: this study aimed to evaluated trends for iron and manganese concentrations in wells, reservoirs, and water distribution networks in qom city during the summer of 2012. methods: this was a cross-sectional study. the studied scopes consisted of groundwater (60 wells), reservoirs (10 tanks), and water distribution network (33 points). one sample was taken from each source monthly. stat...

Background Obese children are at the risk of micronutrient deficiency especially iron deficiency. Given the importance of iron deficiency in this age group and considering the existing discrepancies, present study was performed with the aim of evaluating iron deficiency in obese children. Material and Method This study was conducted, in the form of a case-control study, on 100 children aged...

The synthesis of iron oxide nano-particles by direct thermal decomposition was studied. Simultaneous thermal analysis and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy results confirmed the formation of iron-urea complex, and disclosed iron oxide formation mechanism. Calcination of the iron-urea complex at 200°C and 250°C for 2 hrs. resulted in the formation of maghemite along with hematite as a seco...

New discoveries of legumes in the lower Galilee at the prehistoric site of Ahihud in Israel shed light on early farming systems in the southern Levant. Radiocarbon dating of twelve legumes from pits and floors indicate that the farming of legumes was practiced in southern Levant as early as 10.240-10.200 (1σ) ago. The legumes were collected from pits and other domestic contexts dated to the Ear...

Rheological and nutritional properties of corn based extrudates incorporated with selected dehulled legumes (black gram, green gram, lentil and peas) made using low cost collet extruder at 5%, 10% and 15% levels were studied. There was a decreasing trend of all viscosity properties and degree of gelatinization with increase in legumes incorporation level. With increase in legumes incorporation,...
