The risk of microbial contamination in the cosmetic products especially in smuggled preparations and transmission of it to consumers is very high. In this study, the microbial content and the pollution of some sunscreen creams in the market and one sample in official market as witness were evaluated. The microbial content (bacterial total count, fungal count, and presence of Pseudomon asaerogin...

Résumé. — Une modèle porosité double, permeabilité double est presentée pour la simulation d’un déplacement incompressible miscible dans un mileau poreux naturellement fracturé. L’écoulement des fluides est décrit dans le système des fractures et dans chaque bloc matriciel par une équation elliptique pour la pression et une équation parabolique pour la concentration. L’échange de fluide entre l...

We prove invariance principles for phase separation lines in the two dimensional nearest neighbour Ising model up to the critical temperature and for connectivity lines in the general context of high temperature finite range ferromagnetic Ising models. Nous prouvons des principes d’invariance pour des lignes de sparation de phase dans le modle bidimensionnel d’Ising voisin le plus proche jusqu’...

background: visceral leishmaniasis (vl) is one of the most important parasitic zoonotic diseases in the world. do­mestic dogs are the main domestic reservoirs of vl in endemic foci of iran. various methods, including vaccination, treatment of dogs, detection and removal of infected dogs have different results around the world. general policy on control of canine visceral leishmaniasis is protec...

The white pine weevil, Pissodes strobi, severely restricts the growth and range of Sitka spruce (Picea sitchensis) in British Columbia. Knowledge of the patterns of male and female mating success is important for designing biocontrol programs and for understanding the reproductive potential of this weevil. To examine patterns of male and female reproductive success, we performed experiments in ...

The built up layer thickness in secondary deformation zone is one of the important parameters in metal cutting process. The built up layer (BUL) is formed in second deformation zone near the tool-chip interface in the back of the chip. This parameter influences the tool life and machined surface quality. This BUL should not be confused with the built up edge (BUE). The deformation of the BUL in...

In this research, nano materials with tubular structures are added to SAE 20W50 engine oil to study the rate of their effects on the properties of engine oil. Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and vanadium oxide nanotubes (VONTs) has been used as two different additive materials, one of them is carbonic and the other is metallic oxides and their effect on  different parameters contain...

STUDY DESIGN Retrospective cohort analysis. OBJECTIVE The aim of the study was to identify medications that may potentially contribute to developing postoperative urinary retention (POUR) after lumbar spinal fusion procedures. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA POUR is a concerning event that may occur after routine orthopedic surgery. The relation between intraoperative medications and POUR after ...
