background: radon and its short-lived decay products are considered as the important sources of public exposure to natural radioactivity. the synergistic interaction between tobacco smoking and radon is known to be an actual problem. this study has provided a mathematical description and prognosis of the carcinogenic effects after combined action of radon with smoking. materials and methods: a ...

The cloud point extraction behavior of aluminum(III) with 8-quinolinol (HQ) or 2-methyl-8-quinolinol (HMQ) and Triton X-100 was investigated in the absence and presence of 3,5-dichlorophenol (Hdcp). Aluminum(III) was almost extracted with HQ and 4(v/v)% Triton X-100 above pH 5.0, but was not extracted with HMQ-Triton X-100. However, in the presence of Hdcp, it was almost quantitatively extracte...

The goal of present study was to investigate kinetics of supercritical carbon dioxide (SC CO2) extraction of essential oils from dried clove buds and oregano leaves. Total extract yields after exhaustion of plant material at 10 MPa and 40°C (after consumption of 94.3 kgCO2/kg plant material) were 18.2% and 1.0 %, respectively. Synergistic effect in the extraction process was also investigated u...

the aim followed in the present study was to evaluate the antioxidant activity of individual vs. combined extracts of rosemary leaves and oak fruit to detect the possible interactions in their antioxidant activity following combination and in order to find a way to use oak fruit natural antioxidants as an available massive source in iran. towards this end, methanolic extracts of rosemary and oa...
