Methiocarb was administered orally at doses 25, 10 and 2 mg/kg of b.w. on the basis of LD50 for 1, 5 and 28 days, respectively, in rats. The results show that treatment with methiocarb increased significantly kidney TBARS levels in all groups when compared to control groups. In 1 day period; GSH levels, SOD, CAT and GSHPx activities increased. In 5 days period; GSH levels, SOD and CAT activitie...

Iron in amphibole asbestos is implicated in the pathogenicity of inhaled fibers. Evidence includes the observation that iron chelators can suppress fiber-induced tissue damage. This is believed to occur via the diminished production of fiber-associated reactive oxygen species. The purpose of this study was to explore possible mechanisms for the reduction of fiber toxicity by iron chelator treat...

The cytochrome P450 (P450) and flavin-containing monooxygenase (FMO) enzymes are the major oxidative enzymes in phase I metabolism. Many organophosphate and carbamate thioether compounds are excellent substrates for these enzymes. Stereoselective sulfoxidation of fenthion and methiocarb by human liver, kidney, and microsomes was investigated. A high level of stereoselectivity in the formation o...

in order to study the effect of solitary and combined application of two types of green manure, cow manure, barvar-2 phosphate fertilizer and conventional chemical fertilizer on some of the qualitative and quantitativeproperties of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted at the research farm of shahrekord university in 2013. the experimental design was randomized in a complete block design with...

Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for all living organisms. In bacteria, the preferential phosphorus source is phosphate, which is often a limiting macronutrient in many areas of the ocean. The geochemical cycle of phosphorus is strongly interconnected with the cycles of other elements and especially iron, because phosphate tends to adsorb onto iron minerals, such as iron oxide formed in oxic...

In the processes of wastewater treatment, significant amounts of iron phosphate containing sludge is discharged. One of the recycling methods of this sludge, alkalization treatment is investigated. aq. solution of sodium hydroxide is added to the dehydrated sludge. Iron phosphate in the sludge react with sodium hydroxide, forming sodium phosphate and iron hydroxide containing-sludge at room tem...

In present study, growth, arsenic accumulation, and antioxidant responses in root of Isatis cappadocica were investigated in response to application of arsenate and phosphate. Reduction in root dry weights was significant with 1200 µM arsenate and 5 µM phosphate treatments. Phosphate had a steady effect on root dry weight improvement, especially in high arsenate treatments ≥ 200 μM. As concentr...
