Environmental pollution has been a serious problem since the start of the industrial revolution. The pollution usually comes from industrial wastes, waste water, heavy metal, etc. Heavy metals such as lead, mercury, tin are considered to be toxic to living organisms and enzyme activities. However, metal ions can play essential role in plants and animals as they are involved in fundamental proce...

Background & Aim: Dill “Anethum graveolens” is an annual medical plantin the celery family “Apiaceae”. It is the sole species of the genus “Anethum”.The health advantages of dill seed include its ability to increasedigestive health, as well as providingrelief from insomnia, hiccups, diarrhea, dysentery, menstrual disorders, respiratory disorders, and ...

Two letters were recently submitted to the editor regarding our recent publication (1), both of which raised important issues. Fall and Bailey identified discrepancies between their previous work (2) and ours, which deserve consideration. They also used the same correction technique of Dill and Costill (3) after maximal 223 Konstanzer Online-Publikations-System (KOPS)

It is shown how DILL (Digital Logic in LOTOS) can be used to specify,verify and test asynchronous hardware designs. Asynchronous (unclocked) circuits are a topic of active research in the hardware community. It is illustrated how DILL can address some of the key challenges. New relations for (strong) conformance are defined for assessing a circuit implementation against its specification. An al...

(Data presented in this report was obtained, in part, by the attorneys of Campero & Becerra, and in part by myself and my graduate student, Dan Sandler, when we were allowed to directly observe and copy data from Webb County’s voting systems, impounded as part of an ongoing investigation into the election results. My discussion includes some analysis prepared earlier by David Dill (a computer s...

abstract: the commercial development of food products originated from the plants as sources of antioxidants to increase the health benefit and stabilize the food is of current interest. this study was aimed at obtaining dill extract using cold solvent method by three solvents, (methanol, acetone, and hexane) and examining the antioxidant potency and determining the oxidative stability of sunflo...

This paper investigates specification, verification and test generation for synchronous and asynchronous circuits. The approach is called DILL (Digital Logic in LOTOS). DILL models are discussed for synchronous and asynchronous circuits. Relations for (strong) conformance are defined for verifying a design specification against a high-level specification. An algorithm is also outlined for gener...

Introduction: Nowadays, there is special interest in finding a new contraceptive drug with high safety and fewer side effects. Investigations have shown that dill (Anethum graveolens L.) can be used either as a menstrual cycle regulator or contraceptive. Since cell surface terminal sugars have crucial roles in oocyte maturation, fertilization and implantation, in this study we investigated the ...
