background : the present paper aims to study the effect of human and urban activities on the quality of groundwater within the city of khoy in terms of heavy metals, chemical salts, and minerals from the geological formations of this region. methods : samples were provided from 32 pumping wells and the concentration of heavy metals ( cd, cu, mn, pb, zn, fe, as, and b), the main ions (hco 3 ,so ...

Elevated major ions (or salinity) are recognised as being a key contributor to the toxicity of many mine waste waters but the complex interactions between the major ions and large inter-species variability in response to salinity, make it difficult to relate toxicity to causal factors. This study aimed to determine if the toxicity of a typical saline seepage water was solely due to its major io...

this study examines the effects of change in the concentrations of monovalent and divalent ions in the polymer-contained surfactant solution on the macroscopic behavior of viscous-modified surfactant waterflooding in heavy oil reservoirs. salts that are used in this set of floods were sodium chloride, magnesium chloride, and calcium chloride. the results indicate that four different ranges of s...

118 dentistry students were studied to show the possible correlation between ph, concentration of ca2+, p3+, na+, and k+ of saliva and decay, missing, and filling tooth (dmft index). candidates were between 20 and 30 years old and had no background systemic disorders; medial and dental histories, age, sex, and dmft index were recorded in a questionnaire organized for this purpose. saliva sample...
