Seaweeds have caused an emerging interest in the biomedical area, mainly due to their contents of bioactive substances which show great potential as anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, anti-viral and anti-tumoral drugs. Despite the diversity in quality and quantity of the Mediterranean Tunisian coast flora, with its large contains of marine organisms and seaweeds, most of them have not yet been ...

I describe a new way of constructing a gauge action that eliminates scaling artifacts, by writing the continuum formalism in terms of “gauge links” (Schwinger line integrals) and using the optimal SLAC representation of the lattice derivative. Computational performance can be maintained by implementing the action as a “stochastic” operator, as has been recently implemented in the MILC code for ...

تمام ترکیبات اورانیم، سمی و رادیواکتیو هستند. بودن این عنصر می‌تواند کشنده باشد. با توجه به سمیت شیمیایی رادیواکتیویته ضروری است از ورود آن طبیعت جلوگیری شود. پسماندهای خروجی مراکز صنعتی- هسته­ای نیز دارای مقادیر مختلفی اورانیم می­باشد لذا حذف پساب اهمیت ویژه­ای برخوردار است. سویی دیگر، نظر محدودیت منابع آن، بازیابی پسماندها، ارزش اقتصادی می­باشد. در پژوهش حاضر، روش سطح پاسخ (RSM) بر اساس طرح م...

in this study, the immunogenicity of a rabies vaccine that was used in one of the isfahan cattle farms is reported. this vaccine was produced by replication of the pasteur virus (pv) strain on bhk-21 monolayer cell culture. the virus suspension was inactivated by ß-propiolactone treatment and the harvested pool showed sterility and safety. thus, the obtained vaccine was tested on mice and a sat...

difficult diagnosis in endocrinology, gynecology, and reproductive medicine. to help solve this issue, the rotterdam consensus conference proposed to include the ultrasonographic follicle count as a new diagnostic criterion, in addition to hyperandrogenism and oligo-anovulation. unfortunately, its assessment does not offer sufficient reliability worldwide. objective: to explore the possible rol...

conclusions the current study found a relatively high frequency of positivity gbv-c-exposure among the patients receiving hemodialysis in the area understudy. nosocomial transmission seems to be the main route of gbv-c infection in the area. objectives the current study aimed to evaluate gbv-c infection among hemodialysis patients. patients and methods totally, 149 patients receiving hemodialys...

conclusions potato peels were proved to be potentially useful substrates for biosurfactant production by b. pumilus dsvp18. the strain possessed a unique property to reduce surface tension of the media from 72 to 28.7 mn/m. in addition, it showed a stable surface activity over a wide range of temperatures, ph, and saline conditions and had strong antimicrobial activity. this potential of the id...

conclusions as a result of the full range uv-vis scanning of the responsible band in the hptlc experiments (200-700 nm), the flavonoid was the most imaginable natural compound. results through the bioassay guided fractionation method, the greatest antibacterial activities were related to the n-hexane extract. it was also revealed that the effective anti-mrsa agent of the assessed plant was a re...

background: the aim of this study was to compare the antibacterial efficacy of endemic satureja khuzistanica jamzad (skj) essential oil as root canal irrigation versus 2.5% sodium hypochlorite and 2% chlorhexidine gluconate.     methods: in current in vitro experimental study, fifty four single-rooted teeth were randomly divided into 6 groups of 9 samples: 2.5% sodium hypochlorite (naocl), 2% c...

it has been also reported that that h. pylori infection may be responsible for some endocrine disorders, such as autoimmune thyroid diseases, diabetes mellitus and primary hyperparathyroidism. h. pylori which express cytotoxin-associated gene a (caga) may be more virulent than those that do not. the aim was to evaluate the seroprevalence of anti-h. pylori igg and anti-caga  antibodies in patien...
