The nucleation of the C-S-H gel is a complex process, key to controlling hydration kinetics and microstructure development cement. In this paper, mechanism for crystallization step during non-classical proposed explored by atomistic simulation methods. portlandite precursor monolayers undergo chemically induced transformation condensation silicate dimmers, forming monolayers. We studied DFT nud...

this paper identifies characteristics of business cycles in iran, applying hodrick-prescott (hp) and band-pass (bp) filters. using seasonal and anual data for 1970-2003, it is found that oil income is the key driving factor of business cycles in the iranian economy. furthermore, it is indicated that iran's economy has experienced seven business cycles during this period, in which the econo...

objective(s): neuroinflammation in parkinson disease (pd) is associated with glial cells activation and production of different inflammatory cytokines. in this study, we investigated the effect of chronic administration of 8-oh-dpat on 6-ohda-induced catalepsy and levels of inflammatory cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid (csf).   materials and methods: catalepsy was induced by unilateral infusion...

the reaction of an equivalent of 2- mercaptoethyl ammonium chloride with an equivalent of 2,6-diformyl -4- methyl phenol produced monoamine which was reacted with half equivalent of 1,2-diamine ethane to produce ethylene-bis-6-(2-mercapto-ethyl-imine)-methyl -4- methyl phenol [h4l]. the ligand was reacted with metal ions[cr(iii), mn(ii), fe(ii), co(ii), ni(ii), cu(ii), zn(ii), cd(ii), and hg(ii...

drought resistance is a very important characteristic needed for plant survival especially at germination stage, in arid and semi-arid lands. phosphatase enzymes are widely found in plants. these enzymes are responsible for dephosphorylation of organic phosphate and altering it to mineral phosphate. germination experiments were conducted in two bread wheat cultivars (sardari and alvand) under s...

trehalose is an important disaccharide signal metabolite in plants which is involved in various aspects of plant function such as response to stress, photosynthesis and carbon allocation and partitioning. a mutant of arabidopsis lacking trehalose-6-phosphate synthase activity (tps1) accumulates ascorbate. exogenous ascorbate application ameliorates trehalose induced growth inhibition of wild ty...
