Introduction: Boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) is a method of cancer treatment and potentially, two borono-L-phenylalanine (BPA) and sodium borocaptate (BSH) are used in BNCT as common boron carriers. Some previous studies have shown that the dose rate is directly related to boron concentration in the tissue. This study aimed to simulate the structure of boron carriers and brain tumor compo...

background:  we determined the blood lipid-lowering effects ofeicosapentaenoic acid (epa) on hypertriglyceridemic subjects with leu162/val in exon 5 and g/c in intron7 polymorphism of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha (pparα)genotypes that, to our knowledge, have not been previously studied. methods:  a total of170 hypertriglyceridemic subjects were enrolled and genotyped for ala...

in this research, an experimental study to evaluate nutrient removal from synthetic wastewater by a lab-scale moving bed biofilm process was investigated. also, kinetic analysis of the process with regard to phosphorus and nitrogen removal was studied with different mathematical models. for nutrient removal, the moving bed biofilm process was applied in series with anaerobic, anoxic and aerobic...
