Today, by using half of the oil reserves of the world, natural production of oil has decreased drastically. Gas and water injection for maintaining reservoir pressure is not responsive for oil production.At first, we dispersed silica nanoparticles in low salinity and after two weeks, there was no change in its stability. Then we mixed the nanoparticles in low salinity. After a while, we found o...

We evaluated an immunoenzymatic assay (Abbott HTSH EIA) for thyrotropin (TSH) as a tool for detecting hyperthyroidism and for monitoring thyroid hormone suppressive therapy in patients with nodular goiter, thyroid carcinoma, and hypopituitarism. We also tested with thyroliberin (TRH), to determine the correlation between peak and basal TSH in suppressed patients. For comparison, we used a noneq...

Nitrite and nitrous oxide made up 40% of the hypolimnetic dissolved inorganic nitrogen in mesotrophic Lake Rotoiti, New Zealand, prior to hypolimnetic anoxia. Up to 120 mg of N m-3 as nitrite and 20 mg of N m-3 as nitrous oxide accumulated, whereas dissolved-oxygen concentrations remained between 1.0 and 0.2 g m-3 and were totally consumed when the hypolimnion became completely anoxic. Assays o...
