solidified samples of fuel oil combustion bottom ash with two sets of ordinary portland cement (opc) and pozzolan added opc were investigated with three sets of chemical leaching tests. toxicity characteristic leaching test (tclp) results classified waste material and its solidification products as hazardous. although ni and cr have over-leached, but their close examination with sequential chem...

Rhabdomyolysis and myoglobinuria occur commonly in men who sustain environmental heat injury during intensive physical training in hot climates. These also occur in patients with potassium depletion. Since physical training in hot climates may be accompanied by serious losses of body potassium, the possibility was considered that performance of strenuous exercise when potassium deficient might ...

Background: Previous study by the authors showed that a-tocopherol prevents oxidative stress but would not improve depressed excretory variables in post-obstructed kidney (POK) after release of 24-h unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO). This study is a supplementary investigation on the effects of a-tocopherol combined with an antagonist of angiotensin-II type-1 (AT1) receptor on renal dysfunc...

Moderate hypothermia significantly diminishes consequences of spinal and cerebral anoxia. One component of this neuroprotection has been hypothesized to be suppression of excitotoxic transmitter release. Whether this suppression is attributable to reduced hypoxic injury that induces release or an alteration of the release process itself is unclear. We sought to characterize the temperature sens...

statement of problem: bioglasses are a series of biocompatible dental materials, which are considered as light conducting inserts in resin composite restorations. consequently, their chemical stability is more essential when they are used in conjunction with resin composite. objectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the chemical stability of bioglass with dental porcelain an...
