salinity is one of the major environmental stresses that limit plant growth and productivity. glasswort (salicornia herbacea l.) is one of the native halophytic plants of iran that widely spread in salt areas. the purpose of this study was to determine the physiological and growth responses of s. herbacea to salinity stress. plastic pods (15 cm diameter, 20 cm height) with the silica sand bed w...

objective: gut–brain axis (gba) is very important in creation and modulation of gastrointestinal problems. aloe vera gel has gastroprotective properties. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of aqueous extract of aloe vera leaves on the gastric acid secretion and brain and intestinal water content following acetic acid gastric ulcer induction. materials and methods: gastric ulce...

We assessed the protective efficacy (PE) of three doses of B subunit-killed whole cell (BS-WC) and killed whole cell-only (WC) oral cholera vaccines in a randomized, double-blind trial among 62,285 children and women residing in rural Bangladesh. After one complete year of surveillance, 110 cases of cholera were detected in the placebo group, 52 in the WC group (PE, 53%; P less than .0001), and...

Tungsten carbide (WC) is a widely used engineering material which is usually prepared at high temperature. A new mechanism for synthesizing nanoscaled WC at ultralow temperature has been discovered. This discovery opens a novel route to synthesize valuable WC and other carbides at a cost-efficient way. The novel formation mechanism is based on an ion-exchange resin as carbon source to locally a...

The co-hydrothermal carbonization (Co-HTC) of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film and wood chip (WC) was conducted at 200-260oC in an autoclave filled air or nitrogen for the chemical recycling wastes with dechlorination PVC. Effects Co-HTC temperature oxidation reaction during on decomposition behaviors were investigated. percentage atmosphere increased increasing reached 76.1% 260oC. decompositions...

To explore the molecular regulatory mechanism of high-carbon (C) sequestration Fraxinus mandshurica Rupr. (F. mandshurica) provenance and expression profile F. during nitrogen (N) starvation, foliage roots annual Wuchang (WC) seedlings with greater C amount Hailin (HL) smaller amount, which were grown in N-deficient nutrition complete N, used for RNA-seq physiological determination, respectivel...

BACKGROUND Obesity is a global epidemic, which is a risk factor for cardiovascular diseases and metabolic abnormalities. It is measured by body mass index (BMI), waist circumference (WC), waist-hip ratio (WHR), body fat (BF) distribution and abdominal fat mass, each having its own merits and limitations. Variability in body composition between ethnic groups in South-Asians is significant and ma...
