In order to evaluate the effect of different amounts of iron and manganese sulfates on wheat yield (Chamran cultivar), a factorial experiment based a randomized complete block design with three replications. The experiment treatments consisted of different concentrations of iron sulfate )Including; zero, 1500, and 3000 grams per hectare) and manganese sulfate (Including; zero, 1500, and 3000 gr...

100 lactic acid bacterial strains isolated from traditional fermented foods (yoghurt, milk cream, sour dough and milk) were screened for bacteriocin production. Twenty six strains producing a nisin-like bacteriocin were selected. Most of these isolates gave only a narrow inhibitory spectrum, although one showed a broad inhibitory spectrum against the indicator strains tested, this strain was de...

BACKGROUND Spinal anesthesia is widely used for caesarean section. Addition of intrathecal magnesium sulfate to local anesthetics seems to improve the quality of block and prolong the duration of analgesia. OBJECTIVES The present study was designed to examine whether addition of intrathecal magnesium sulfate enhances the analgesic efficacy of intrathecal bupivacaine in patients undergoing ces...

Five different micropaleontological methods (H2O2, Glauber's salt, liquid nitrogen, acetic acid + Copper(ll) sulfate, and formic acid) were applied to study the differences of obtained agglutinated foraminiferal faunas typical hemipelagic carbonate deposits mid-Cretaceous Europe, prove whether there is a method–derived bias knowledge about in these sedimentological settings. Split samples same ...

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of intravenous magnesium sulfate on patients with COPD exacerbation requiring hospitalization. In this randomized clinical trial 30 patients with COPD exacerbation were studied. Patients were randomly assigned to group A (case) who concurrent with standard therapy received 2g magnesium sulfate in normal saline infused in 20 minutes on days one...

Pheochromocytoma crisis is a rare life-threatening event that may appear with a variety of clinical symptoms. We present three cases of life-threatening crisis in which magnesium sulfate was particularly beneficial in controlling symptoms and signs when more conventional forms of therapy had failed. Two patients presented with hypertensive encephalopathy, and the third presented with catecholam...
