To prevent water loss in the early stage of high altitude training, we focused on the effect of electrolyte-carbohydrate beverage (EC). Subjects were 16 male university students who belonged to a ski club. They had ski training at an altitude of 1,800 m. The water (WT) group drank only water, and the EC group drank only an electrolyte-carbohydrate beverage. They arrived at the training site in ...

In arid and semi-arid lands like Iran water is scarce, not all the wastewater can be treated. Hence, groundwater remains primary principal source of supply for human consumption. Therefore, this study attempted to spatially assess potential in an aquifer a region using geographic information systems (GIS)-based statistical modeling. To end, 75 agricultural wells across Marvdasht Plain were samp...

Low-temperature quantum phase coherence lengths were experimentally measured in mesoscopic circular arenas fabricated on InGaAs quantum wells. The arenas are connected to wide sample regions by short side-wires, to investigate the effects of geometry in comparison to intrinsic materials properties on quantum decoherence. Universal conductance fluctuations were used to quantify the phase coheren...

This paper derives the elements of classical Einstein–Cartan theory (EC) from general relativity (GR) in two ways. (I) Derive discrete versions torsion (translational holonomy) and spin-torsion field equation EC one Kerr solution GR. (II) equations as continuum limit a distribution many masses The convergence computations employ “epsilon-delta” arguments, are not rigorous Sobolev norm. Inequali...

This paper analyses the results of microbiological bathing water at Kravica Waterfall during 2018 and 2019 impact bathers on quality. The analysis samples was performed by Federal Institute Public Health in Mostar accordance with regulations Directive 2006/7 EC for management quality water. Faecal streptococci were determined using membrane filtration method BAS EN ISO 7899-2:2003. Escherichia ...

The efficacy of a laboratory electrocoagulation (EC) system for treating egg processing plant waste-water (WW) is reported. For simulated and industrial egg processing WW, chemical oxygen demand, turbidity, and total suspended solids (TSS) were reduced 92 to 97%, 97%, and 99%, respectively, after treatment with EC. The final TSS concentration and turbidity values were 30 mg/L and 5 formazin tur...

The binding of advanced glycation end-products (AGE) to the receptor for AGE (RAGE) is known to deteriorate various cell functions and is implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular complications. In the present study, we show that the cellular constituents of small vessels, endothelial cells (EC) and pericytes express novel splice variants of RAGE mRNA coding for the isoforms that lack...

 The effect of sodium silicate (Si) and potassium (K) were investigated on the major antioxidant enzyme activities in two different grapevine cultivars (Vitis vinifera L., cvs Yezandai and Malinger Ramfi) under drought stress. The traits included superoxide dismutase (SOD, EC 1.15.1.1), catalase (CAT, EC 1.11.1.6), peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7), guaiacol peroxidase (GPX, EC 1.11.1.7), ascorbate...

Adsorption-induced chiral resolution of organic molecules is important due to its potential applications in stereo-selective catalysis. We studied the adsorption-induced chiral resolution using a model achiral molecule of 4,4’ biphenyl dicarboxylic acid (BPDA) on Au(111) in 0.1 M perchloric acid (HClO4) by electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy (EC-STM). Our experimental data showed that...

Dried ground leaves of Psidium guajava L. (guava) were extracted by water and aqueous ethyl alcohol 50% (1:10) ratio, and the total phenolic content in the extracts was determined spectrophotometrically according to Folin- Ciocalteu's phenol method and calculated as gallic acid equivalent (GAE). Remarkably high total phenolic content 575.3 +/-15.5 and 511.6+/-6.2 mg of GAE/g of dried weight mat...
