introduction cr-39 detectors are widely used for radon and progeny measurement in the air. in this paper, using the monte carlo simulation, the possibility of using the cr-39 for direct measurement of radon and progeny in water is investigated. materials and methods assuming the random position and angle of alpha particle emitted by radon and progeny, alpha energy and angular spectrum that arri...

background: pomegranate fruit (punica granatum l.) is a rich source of anthocyanin pigments resulting in vibrant colours and anti-oxidant contents. although the intensity and pattern of anthocyanin biosynthesis in fruit are strongly influenced by r2r3-myb transcription factors, little is known about the regulation and role of myb in anthocyanin pathway of pomegranate.objectives: the present stu...

the pathogenetic mechanism of nasal polyps remains unknown, although allergy has been cited as an important factor in the etiology of nasal polyposis. currently there is no definite histological criterion for differentiation of allergic from inflammatory nasal polyp. however, in a few studies, tissue eosinophil count has been used for this. this study aimed to find out the agreement rate of ski...

the thermo-hydraulic behavior of the air flow over a two dimensional ribbed channel wasnumerically investigated in various rib-width ratio configurations (b/h=0.5-1.75) atdifferent reynolds numbers, ranging from 6000 to 18000. the capability of differentturbulence models, including standard k-ε, rng k-ε, standard k-ω, and sst k-ω, inpredicting the heat transfer rate was compared with the experi...

Human skin is repeatedly exposed to UVR that influences the function and survival of many cell types and is regarded as the main causative factor in the induction of skin cancer. It has been traditionally believed that skin pigmentation is the most important photoprotective factor, as melanin, besides functioning as a broadband UV absorbent, has antioxidant and radical scavenging properties. Be...
