A survey was undertaken for screening the organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) residue in eggs and meat samples collected from Namakkal (Tamil Nadu). Samples were analyzed by thin layer chromatography and con rmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Total endosulfan in egg (33.33 %) and broiler meat (50%) were exceeded the MRL of Codex alimentarius. Desi chicken adipose tissue had high incide...

Deposition of Cu, Zn, Mn, Cr, Ni, Pb and Cd, and their concentrations in falling dust were measured in 1995-1998 in eastern Mazowieckie Province (former Siedleckie Province). No maximum permissible values of dust deposition, nor Pb and Cd concentrations, were exceeded. It was observed that the elements of low melting temperatures (Pb, Zn) reached higher concentrations in paniculate matter, and ...

In this study, nitrobenzene in water and ice samples collected from the Songhua River after the explosion of a petrochemical plant was determined by GC/MS. The results showed that nitrobenzene was detected in most of the water and ice samples taken from the Songhua River. However, the concentration of nitrobenzene in all water and ice samples was from 0 to 0.65 microg L(-1); this range was suff...

The classical economic order quantity model of Wilson’s was developed with the assumption that the buyer must pay off immediately on arrival of the goods in the inventory system. In fact, offering buyers to delays payment for goods received is considered as a sales promotional tool in the business world. With offer of trade credit, vendor increases sales, attracts more buyers and reduces on – h...

In this paper we use degree and index theory to present new applicable fixed point theory for permissible maps.

This paper considers two-level integer programming problems involving random fuzzy variables with cooperative behavior of the decision makers. Considering the probabilities that the decision makers’ objective function values are smaller than or equal to target variables, fuzzy goals of the decision makers are introduced. Using the fractile criteria to optimize the target variables under the con...

Several new fixed point results for compact permissible self maps in extension type spaces are presented in this paper.

Atomic force microscopes provide unprecedented access to surfaces at the nanometer level both for imaging and for local surface modifications. Precise positioning, accurate control of interaction forces and speed are critical issues when operating these instruments. This paper summarizes how modern model-based control strategies lead to higher permissible imaging speeds, improved control over t...

Let G be an N -player game in strategic form and C be a set of permissible coalition of players (exogenously given). A strategy profile σ is a coalitional-equilibrium if no permissible coalition in C has a unilateral deviation that profits to all its members. At the two extremes: when C contains only singleton players, σ reduces to a Nash equilibrium and when C consists on all coalitions of pla...

Modern Greek society appears to be split regarding the legalization of euthanasia. The Greek Orthodox Church maintains a negative attitude. Research shows that some forms of euthanasia are carried out "behind closed doors". There is no specific legal provision. The government avoids bearing the political cost of regulating this marginal issue. According to the dominant view of Criminal Law juri...
