In this work, the hydrogeochemistry and environmental isotopic compositions of thermal and mineral springs in Arxan, northeastern China, were used to assess the genesis of the thermal system hosted by deep-seated faults. The reservoir temperature was calculated using the mineral saturation index and geothermometers. According to isotopic analysis, the spring water was of meteoric origin. Sixtee...

This article presents Q-Facies, an open-source Python package for quantitative analysis of hydrochemical facies (HF). HF is widely used to interpret the chemical characteristics groundwater. However, it difficult analyse its spatial or temporal variability due qualitative nature and small number classes. To avoid these limitations, Q-Facies performs parametrization based on calculation five sta...

in this research, the groundwater quality of hoz–e–soltan lake and its catchment was studied for drinking, domestic and irrigation uses according to different parameters. this lake with 195 km2 catchment area is located 85 km of southwest of tehran–qom highway. in order to investigate groundwater quality characteristics in the study area, 34 data from water of well belong to 2008 selected to pr...

The Piper genus is the most representative of the Piperaceae reaching around 2000 species distributed in the pantropical region. In the Neotropics, its species are represented by herbs, shrubs, and lianas, which are used in traditional medicine to prepare teas and infusions. Its essential oils (EOs) present high yield and are chemically constituted by complex mixtures or the predominance of mai...

Abstract Wabe River is a vital source of drinking water, irrigation for agriculture, and income the local residents. However, river's declining quality has led to an increase in waterborne infections made it appear muddier. The study's objective was evaluate river water using 23 different parameters calculate Weighted Arithmetic Water Quality Index (WAWQI), Metal (MI), Pollution (PI), Potential...

To determine the groundwater quality a total of twenty samples were collected from some villages Sirsa district, Haryana, India, which is one most important agricultural areas state. The in November 2016 different city Sirsa. suitability for irrigation was assessed by determining Sodium Absorption Ratio, % Na, Kelly's Index, Permeability index, EC, Chloro-alkaline indices and Residual Carbonate...

BACKGROUND The current study investigated the effects of Piper longumine on radio-sensitization of human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells and underlying mechanisms. MATERIALS AND METHODS Human breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells were cultured in vitro and those in logarithmic growth phase were selected for experiments divided into four groups: control, X-ray exposed, Piper longumine, and Piper longu...

Piperaceae, a Latin name derived from Greek, which in turn originates from the Arabic word babary—black pepper, is considered one of the largest families of basal dicots, found in tropical and subtropical regions of both hemispheres. The species that belong to this family have a primarily pantropical distribution, predominantly herbaceous members, occurring in tropical Africa, tropical Asia, Ce...

Quality of agriculture drain water was assessed from selected locations in Guntur district, Andhra Pradesh, India. Waste samples collected drains were analysed for quality parameters such as pH, electrical conductivity, total dissolved solids, hardness, chlorides, carbonates, bicarbonates, calcium, magnesium, sulphates, phosphates, sodium, potassium, ammonical nitrogen, nitrates oxygen and chem...
