efforts to increase the mass transfer coefficient, enhance the contact area, and decrease the power input of contractors have given risen to the development of the pre-dispersed solvent extraction (pdse) contactor and the devise of the new dissolved nitrogen pdse (dnpdse) contactors. the studies conducted after the design of the new contactor to determine the working conditions for its suitable...

background: isolation of high quality genomic dna is one of the most important steps in molecular biology studies related to food borne parasites. usually, various protocols are used for different tissues but so far, there is no common, simple and cost benefit procedure for genomic dna extraction of linguatula serrata ( l. serrata .) larvae as a pentastomida endangering food safety. one of the ...

in drought prone environments wheat crop growth and production depends strongly on the water stored in the soil before anthesis and, although some water remains in the soil after harvest, plants experience water deficit. in order to investigate whether water ex-traction patterns, as a plant feature, have a regulating effect on the amount of water used by them at different soil depths, three whe...

backgrounds and aims: coxsakievirus b3 (cvb3), one of the six coxsakievirus b serotypes, is a member of the enterovirus genus within the picornaviridae family. cvb3 is an important pathogen of viral myocarditis, which accounts for more than 50% of viral myocarditis cases. the genome of cvb3, like that of other entroviruses, is a single-stranded, sense, polyadenylated rna molecule with 7400 nucl...
