abstract treating soil with insecticides is thought to be an effective method for termite control. speed of action and repellency of insecticides are important factors for discussing their barrier effects as soil-treatment termiticide. microcerotermes diversus (silvestri) is the most economically destructive termite in structures in ahwaz region, because the species feed on anything with cellul...

Background: Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD), a source of non-thermal plasma, is used in surface decontamination. Objective: To study the effect of DBD plasma treatment, we evaluated the effect of plasma exposure time on inactivation of Bacillus subtilis. Results: Applying the DBD plasma to the culture of B. subtilis caused complete sterilization of the surface without any thermal effects. In...

background: this study was designed to assess the microleakage of glass-ionomer (gi), mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement as coronal orifi ce barrier during walking bleaching. materials and methods: in this experimental study, endodontic treatment was done for 70 extracted human incisors without canal calcifi cation, caries, restoration, resorption, or cr...

as milk is a liquid compound, it needs containers at every stages of movement. the first significant development in milk packaging created at the end of nineteenth century. the flavor changes and shelf life of pasteurized milk and ultra pasteurized milk are affected by processing conditions, packaging materials and microbial growth. off-flavor is an effective factor on reduction of milk quality...

conclusion the minimum concentration of triolein emulsion required to increase vascular permeability adequately with minimal brain edema in a cat model was 0.5%. results the lesion hemispheres showed mild hyperintensity due to edema on t2-weighted images, and contrast enhancement on post-contrast t1-weighted images in cats of group 1-5. cers showed statistically significant differences between ...
