background hemolyis of red blood cells is a serious toxic effect commonly found among patients envenomed by hemiscorpius lepturus scorpion. objectives the aim of the present study was to evlaute the efficay of the avaible polyvalent antivneom in preventing this phenomena. materials and methods using a red blood cell fragility test, the anti-hemolytic effectiveness of a new antivenom serum again...

background and objectives: red beet extract concentrate can be used as a natural colorant in food products; however, destructive effects of thermal methods to produce juice concentrate decrease nutritional value in the final product. materials and methods: in this study, red beet extract was concentrated using osmotic distillation method, and the best pretreatment was evaluated to increase the ...

objectives: to critically evaluate the effect of red clover on hot flash, endometrial thickness, and hormones status in postmenopausal and peri- and post-menopausal women. materials and methods: medline (1966 to july 2014), scopus (1990 to july 2014), and the cochrane central register of controlled trials (the cochrane library issue 1, 2014) were searched for published randomized controlled tri...

introduction: bioterrorism is a worldwide problem and has been the focus of attention during recent decades. there is no precise information on the knowledge, attitude, and preparedness of iranian red crescent volunteers in dealing with bioterrorism. therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the above-mentioned parameters in mahabad red crescent society volunteers. methods: in this prospec...

in this study, the photocatalytic degradation of methyl orange and congo red dye was investigated inaqueous solution using c,n,s-tridoped sno2 nanoparticles as a nano photocatalyst. the degradationwas carried out under different conditions including the photocatalyst amount, initial concentrationand ph of the solution. the results indicated that the degradation of methyl orange and congo redwas...

Although the earliest memories fade first, those of the CMJ remain vivid, perhaps because they coincided with the tragic aggression against Croatia in 1991. Actually, the life of the Journal began before it was officially born. Preparation of the first issue, planned for March 1992 (Fig. 1), was well under way when the first attacks on Croatian cities began in the early autumn of 1991 (1). We w...

Let P2n be a point set in the plane with n red and n blue points. Let CR and CB (SR and SB) respectively be red and blue colored and disjoint disks (axisparallel squares). In this paper we prove the following results. Finding the positions for CR and CB that maximizes the number of red points covered by CR plus the number of blue points covered by CB can be done in O(n log n) time. Finding two ...

Let F be a graph and let G, H denote nonempty families of graphs. We write F → (G,H) if in any 2-coloring of edges of F with red and blue, there is a red subgraph isomorphic to some graph from G or a blue subgraph isomorphic to some graph from H. The graph F without isolated vertices is said to be a (G,H)-minimal graph if F → (G,H) and F − e 6→ (G,H) for every e ∈ E(F ). We present a technique ...

1.1. Jigsaw puzzles reimagined. I will describe jigsaw puzzles that are somewhat different to the familiar kind. A box, shown in Figure 1, contains an infinite supply of the three types of pieces pictured on its side: one five–sided and two four–sided, their edges coloured green, blue and red and directed by arrows. It also holds an infinite supply of red, green and blue rods, again directed by...
