A partial least squares (PLS) calibration model was developed for the simultaneous spectrophotometricdetermination of Pb (ΙΙ), Cu (ΙΙ) and Ni (ΙΙ) using xylenol orange as a chromogenic reagent. The parameterscontrolling behavior of the system were investigated and optimum conditions were selected. The calibrationgraphs were linear in the ranges of 0.0–9.091, 0.0–2.719 and 0.0–2.381 ppm for lead...

Introduction: Dental anomalies have been widely examined, but no such studies have been conducted in Norway. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of dental anomalies and investigate their possible association with gender and dental occlusion. Methods: Panoramic radiographs and study models of 500, 12-year-old school children (273 girls, 227 boys) were analyzed for the presenc...

BACKGROUND Fat-rich diet may alter oocyte development and maturation and embryonic development by inducing oxidative stress (OS) in follicular environment. OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship between fat intake and oxidative stress with oocyte competence and embryo quality. MATERIALS AND METHODS In observational study follicular fluid was collected from 236 women undergoing assisted r...

abstract colchicum kotschyi boiss (colchicaceae) is one of the sixteen iranian native colchicum species, containing considerable amount of colchicine. to study the effect of different nutrient levels on corm yield and colchicine content of colchicum kotschyi boiss under open field soilless culture, an experiment was performed in a randomized complete design at the horticultural research station...
