the aim of this work was to develop a selective cloud point extraction method for the separation and preconcentration of copper(ii) prior to spectrophotometric determination. for this purpose dithizone was used as a complexing agent and the experimental solution was acidified with sulfuric acid. triton x-114 was used as a surfactant and after phase separation, based on the cloud point of the mi...

use of saline water for irrigation has shown considerable promise. however, its effect on the solubility and bioavailability of native soil nutrients is not well understood. this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of salinity on the behavior of zinc(zn) in calcareous soils. the soil samples with different physiochemical properties were collected from four locations in khorasan province...

introdouction: injection of local anesthesia during dental procedures can induce metabolic changes. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the changes in the serum blood glucose levels after the injection of lidocaine with a vasoconstrictor during tooth extraction. materials and methods: in this clinical trial study, we enrolled 60 patients. we extracted mandibular teeth by using inferior al...

the reliability of gene expression profiling based technologies and methods to find transcriptional differences representative for the original samples is influenced by the quality of the extracted rna. hence, rna extraction is the first step to investigate the gene expression and its function. consequently, the quality of extracted rna is really significant. correspondingly, this research was ...

background :    searching for the potent natural antibiotics will improve the treatment of most infectious diseases. cyclotides are potent active peptides derived from some plant families like violaceae. viola tricolor (the pansy) has been found to have numerous cyclotides. nowadays cyclotides attract more attention for their antibacterial activities.  the current research studied the antimicro...

background: this research studied the feasibility of a simple method for extracting gold from central processing units (cpus) of computer circuit boards without solvent. methods: ceramic and composite cpus of computer circuit boards were used. gold was extracted using a hydrometallurgical method in six stages: grinding of cpus, leaching in nitric acid, leaching in aqua regia, removing the exces...
