The study was conducted to evaluate the toxicokinetic disposition and residue of Dimethyl phthalate (DMP) in tilapia at different water temperatures (18oC and 28oC) by RP-HPLC method. After oral administration of DMP with a single does of 20mg/kg body weight, the tilapia’s plasma, muscle, brain, skin and myocardium were sampled separately at different time to determine the concentration of DMP....

in order to investigate the effect of phosphorus fertilizer and spraying fe chellat in micronutrients absorption rate, rate of proline and soluble carbohydrates in bread wheat and some of its ancestral species in dryland condition, a factorial experiment was conducted with three factors consist of: p fertilizer (in two levels), spraying fe chellat (in two levels) and different species of wheat ...

Absorption of solar radiation by water dimer molecules in the Earth’s atmosphere has the potential to act as a positive feedback effect for climate change. There seems little doubt from the results of previous laboratory and theoretical studies that significant concentrations of the water dimer should be present in the atmosphere, yet attempts to detect water dimer absorption signatures in atmo...

In experiments on 11 normal subjects and on three dogs it has been observed that mercurial diuret-ics do not prevent the stimulation of water absorption and formation of hypertonic urine which characteristically follows the infusion of Pitressin. Furthermore mercurial diuretics only rarely increase urine flow when administered in the course of maximal water diuresis. These two facts are interpr...

The present work was aimed to examine the effects of incorporation of each of two different types of nanoclay, i.e. Cloisite Na+ and Cloisite 30B, into PVA foam on cellular morphology and water absorption capacity. Foam samples containing 0.0-10.0 wt% of each of the two types of nanoclay alone were prepared using mechanical foaming. Accordingly, PVA/organoclay/water suspensions were prepare...

While mapping algal blooms from space is now well-established, mapping undesirable algal blooms in eutrophicated coastal waters raises further challenge in detecting individual phytoplankton species. In this paper, an algorithm is developed and tested for detecting Phaeocystis globosa blooms in the Southern North Sea. For this purpose, we first measured the light absorption properties of two ph...

An efficient method for the determination of nanogram levels of zinc in waters (potable, irrigation, waste and sea waters) is described. Acidified water samples were analyzed by an accurately optimized time/temperature program for electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry. The samples were previously treated with a matrix modifier consisting of 0.1% Mg(NO3)2 in 0.5 M HNO3 and injected throu...
