With the rapidly increasing demands on water resources, fresh water shortage has become an important issue affecting the economic and social development in many countries. As one of the main technologies for producing fresh water from saline water and other wastewater sources, reverse osmosis (RO) has been widely used so far. However, a major challenge facing widespread application of RO techno...

Numerous studies have supported a role for oxidative stress in the development of ischemic damage and endothelial dysfunction. Crataegus oxyacantha (Co) and Rosmarinus officinalis (Ro) extracts are polyphenolic-rich compounds that have proven to be efficient in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. We studied the effect of extracts from Co and Ro on the myocardial damage associated with the...

The rhizobitoxine analog, L-2-amino-4-(2-aminoethoxy)-trans-3-butenoic acid (Ro), which effectively inhibits ethylene production in apple (Malus domestica Borkh.) and other tissues at concentrations at about 68 micromolar, inhibited ethylene production by about 50 to 70% in green tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) fruit slices but only by about 15% in pink and ripe tomato tissue slices. Eth...

one of the most important concerns in tehran municipal landfill is the production of leachate and its potential for water resources pollution, this study was undertaken to examine feasibility of biological and physico/chemical treating of high-strength landfill leachate that was collected from tehran municipal landfill. average cod of the leachate in aerobic submerged membrane bioreactor is 680...

Dynactin is a multisubunit complex that regulates the activities of cytoplasmic dynein, a microtubule-associated motor. Actin-related protein 1 (Arp1) is the most abundant subunit of dynactin, and it forms a short filament to which additional subunits associate. An Arp1 filament pointed-end--binding subcomplex has been identified that consists of p62, p25, p27, and Arp11 subunits. The functiona...

OBJECTIVE To analyse the influence of HLA-DR, DQ and corresponding DQA1 and DQB1 promoter alleles (QAP and QBP) on the anti-Ro alone autoantibody response in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). METHODS Sixty-five unrelated anti-La antibody-negative SLE patients, 37 of them with and 28 without anti-Ro antibodies, were included. Anti-Ro antibodies were determined by both counter-immunoelectroph...

Ro 63-9141 is a new member of the pyrrolidinone-3-ylidenemethyl cephem series of cephalosporins. Its antibacterial spectrum was evaluated against significant gram-positive and gram-negative pathogens in comparison with those of reference drugs, including cefotaxime, cefepime, meropenem, and ciprofloxacin. Ro 63-9141 showed high antibacterial in vitro activity against gram-positive bacteria exce...

پژوهشگران اخیراً پنل‌های چندلایه‌ی متشکل از الوارهای متقاطع چوبی (C‌L‌T) را به عنوان یکی مناسب‌ترین ماده‌های ساختمانی دارای کمترین اثرات منفی زیست محیطی معرفی کرده‌اند. در طرح سازه‌ی ترکیبی فولادی ـ ارائه شده پژوهش حاضر، قاب ساختمان نوع بوده و برای کف‌ها دیوارهای برشی سازه افقی قائم C‌L‌T استفاده است. جهت بررسی عملکرد سیستم ای پیشنهادی، یک ۶ طبقه با دو باربر جانبی شامل: الف) خمشی متوسط دیافراگم ...
