one of the most common methods for controlling and increasing maneuverability of projectiles, especially the ones which move at high altitude and in low density air, is using lateral or reaction jets. the resultant force of the reaction jet is related to the jet and flow parameters. for finding their relation experimental, numerical, and analytical methods have been used. in order to change the...

meanders are among the important characteristics of some rivers that flow in semi-arid regions. swift displacement along the river's flow, change in the location of the central ridge and bank erosion leateral erosion are resulted from making meander in the river's flow. meanders in river courses on north east slopes of sahand (located in 46ëš 43ì to 47ëš 15ì e and from 36ëš 05ììì...

abstract lateral intake is a hydraulic structure which is used for diversion of some portion of water from a river for the purpose of irrigation, storage and industrial. most of lateral intakes from canal are installed at canal with inclined banks which has not received the attention of the researchers in the past. since the flow discharge and sediment which enters the intake canal depends on t...

this study was performed to determine the prevalence of canine parvovirus (cpv) in dogs referred to veterinary hospital of ahvaz, khouzestan province, iran. fecal samples were collected from 78 diarrheic dogs between 2005 and 2007. the dogs were divided into two age groups (< 6 months and > 6 months), four different breeds (terriers, germanshepherds, doberman pinschers and mixed) and another tw...

OBJECTIVES Our aim was to: (i) determine the current seroprevalence of feline immunodeficiency virus (FIV) and feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) in three large cohorts of cats from Australia; and (ii) investigate potential risk factors for retroviral infection. METHODS Cohort 1 (n = 2151 for FIV, n = 2241 for FeLV) consisted of cats surrendered to a shelter on the west coast of Australia (Perth, ...

Abstract Background Currently, standard test kits based on the immunochromatography principle use 40 nm gold colloids as labeling material. However, some enzymes such horseradish peroxidase and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) to improve sensitivity. Among various substances, 150 colloidal nanoparticles are thought enable higher sensitivity in than commonly used colloids. This study aims compare a de...

leishmaniasis is an important and common zoonotic disease with a great impact on public health. in the present study, a total of 195 companion cats of different ages were examined for serum antibody detection against leishmania infantum by immunochromatography assay. the cats were selected from those referring to veterinary hospital of ahvaz university, south west of iran from may 2009 to march...

The regulatory standards require that the identification of live plague vaccines and liquid tularaemia allergen (Tularin) should be performed by immunofluorescence. A major drawback recommended method is its labour intensive nature. However, immunochromatography represents an alternative offers a number advantages, including rapid testing easy result interpretation. aim study was to assess appl...
