abstract background some researches have shown the association between iron deficiency and migraine headache in adults. the aim of present study was to evaluate efficacy of ferrous sulfate treatment on migraine headaches of 5-15 years old migraineur children with iron deficiency. materials and methods in a quasi- experimental study, monthly frequency, severity, duration and disability of headac...

BACKGROUND Erythorbic acid, a stereoisomer of ascorbic acid with similar physicochemical properties, is widely used as an antioxidant in processed foods. OBJECTIVES The aims of the present study were to evaluate the effect of erythorbic acid on iron absorption from ferrous sulfate at molar ratios of 2:1 and 4:1 (relative to iron) and to compare the effect of erythorbic acid directly with that...

iron oxide is an important biological agent that has a key role in medical processes; however, the mechanism whereby it provides iron for human and animal cells and its biological uses remains unclear. we aimed to evaluate the effects of oral iron oxide on serum iron status and compare the results with those of iron sulfate as a reference salt. fifteen adult rabbits were divided into 3 groups o...

BACKGROUND Some pregnant women discontinue iron supplements consumption due to Gastrointestinal (GI) complications, whereas pregnancy induces the same complications physiologically. OBJECTIVES The aim of the present study was to assess GI complications of ferrous sulfate in pregnant women. PATIENTS AND METHODS This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial was performed on...

background and objectives: in the original in vitro method for evaluation of iron bioavailability using caco-2 cell model, ferritin formation by cells is considered as a functional indicator of both absorption and utilization of iron. however, as iron is measured in the tested material and then ferritin concentration is measured in caco-2 cell lysate, it is almost impossible to have a concrete ...

Iron polymaltose complex (IPC) offers similar efficacy with superior tolerability to ferrous sulfate in adults, but randomized trials in children are rare. In a prospective, open-label, 4-month study, 103 children aged >6 months with iron deficiency anemia (IDA) were randomized to IPC once daily or ferrous sulfate twice daily, (both 5 mg iron/kg/day). Mean increases in Hb to months 1 and 4 with...

background: untreated leachate is being discharged into the environment in many countries worldwide. leachate treatment methods have not been unified so far due to the variable composition of leachate. moreover, the lack of appropriate treatment and disposal of leachate causes environmental pollution. this study aimed to compare removal efficiency of chemical oxygen demand (cod) and total suspe...

The effects of ferrous and ferric iron as well as redox potential on copper and iron extraction from the copper flotation concentrate of Sarcheshmeh, Kerman, Iran, were evaluated using shake flask leaching examinations. Experiments were carried out in the presence and absence of a mixed culture of moderately thermophile microorganisms at 50 ̊C. Chemical leaching experiments were performed in the...

Introduction: The objective of this study was, wastewater quality investigation and removal efficiency of contaminants from the wastewater tile factory by using coagulants includes ferric chloride, ferric sulfate and ferrous, aluminum sulfate and poly aluminum chloride in order to reuse it in the processing line. Methods: This is an applied study. With regard to shiftwork schedules of the facto...
