an earthquake with magnitude ms = 6.5 on the richter scale occurred in december 26th, 2003 in bam region in southeastern part of iran. this study investigates the chemical variations of the groundwater resources in the effected region. for this purpose, 30 wells were selected and chemical compounds, in terms of cations (ca+2, mg+2, na+, k+); anions (hco3, so4, cl, no2), as well as ec, tds and p...

The β-barrel assembly machine (BAM) complex is an essential feature of all bacteria with an outer membrane. The core subunit of the BAM complex is BamA and, in Escherichia coli, four lipoprotein subunits: BamB, BamC, BamD and BamE, also function in the BAM complex. Hidden Markov model analysis was used to comprehensively assess the distribution of subunits of the BAM lipoproteins across all sub...

Goat antibody IgG produced against bovine corpus luteum mitochondrial cytochrome P-450 (P-450scc) associated with cholesterol side chain cleavage (CSCC) was used to compare immunological characteristics of mitochondrial cytochrome P-450s from the bovine adrenal cortex (BAM), bovine corpus luteum (BCLM), and human placenta (HPM). In Ouchterlony double diffusion, anti-P450scc produced a single ba...

Background Menarche is an independent puberty event in a girl's life, and is associated with physical growth, ability in marriage and fertility. Therefore, poor menstrual health can be a major determinant of morbidity, as well as physical, mental and social problems in this age group. Objective The aim of this study was to explore the effective factors on menstrual health among female student...

The Bandwidth Allocation Models (MAM, RDM, G-RDM and AllocTC-Sharing) are management alternatives currently available which propose different resource (bandwidth) allocation strategies in multiservice networks. The BAM adoption by a network is typically a management choice and configuration task executed by the network operations and management system setup in a static or nearly static way. Thi...

Triple therapy with bismuth subsalicylate, amoxicillin, metronidazole (BAM) or with omeprazole, amoxicillin, clarithromycin (OAC) has been commonly used for the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection. We compared the efficacy of these triple therapies in children with H. pylori infection. We retrospectively analyzed results in 233 children with H. pylori infection and treated with OAC (n=...

A simple, accurate, and precise dual wavelength spectrophotometric method was developed for simultaneous determination of Montelukast Sodium (MTKT) and Bambuterol Hydrochloride (BAM) in combined pharmaceutical dosage forms. The method based on determination of MTKT at 322.0 nm using its absorptivity value and BAM at 266.0 nm after deduction of absorbance due to MTKT. The two drugs follow Beer-L...

In this paper, the Basic Bidirectional Associative Memory (BAM) is extended by choosing weights in the correlation matrix, for a given set of training pairs, which result in a maximum noise tolerance set for BAM. This optimized BAM will recall the correct training pair if an input pair is within the maximum noise tolerance set. We define a hyper-radius, and we prove that for a given set of trai...
