The openings of Copper converter in Sarcheshmeh Copper Complex in Iranis made of a heat resisting austenitic steel (Fe-25Cr-12Ni) and many failures have been reported. Understanding the failure mechanism of the alloy helps to develop better alloys for similar complex environments. Samples of as-cast alloy and those taken from failed ones were examined. Optical Microscopy (OM), X-Ray Diffraction...

knowledge of the probable origin and behaviour of arsenic certainly gives valuable insights into the potential for transfer in the environment and of the risks involved in mining sites. sequential extraction analyses are common experiments often used to study the origin and behaviour of potentially toxic elements. the method, however, presents some deficiencies, including labor-intensive proced...

BACKGROUND Northern Iran (Ardabil) is characterized by a high gastric cancer (GC) rate, whereas Southern Iran (Kerman and Yazd) has a low GC rate. The aim of this study is to verify the potential for pepsinogen I and II to detect atrophic gastritis (AG) in both high and low risk populations for GC. METHODS Sera of blood donors and patients with GC from Ardebil, Kerman and Yazd were used to me...

We compute the fraction of closed-channel molecules in trapped atomic Fermi gases, over the entire range of accessible fields and temperatures. We use a two-channel model of Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer-Bose-Einstein-condensation crossover theory at general temperature , and show that this fraction provides a measure of the T-dependent pairing gap. Our calculations, containing no free parameters, ...

The correlation between the serum level of copper and ceruloplasmin was determined among sarcheshmeh copper workers and compared with Kerman blood bank diners samples. Serum copper was analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry and ceruloplasmin was determined by a caloric enzymatic assay. The concentration of serum copper in the test group was 93+_20.4 mg/ DL which was significantly lower...

BACKGROUND The fall in the incidence of esophageal squamous cell cancer and noncardia gastric cancers in western countries parallels a concomitant rise in the incidence of gastric cardia cancer and distal adenocarcinoma of the esophagus. We aimed to investigate the incidence trend of different gastric and esophageal cancers in Kerman, southeast Iran. METHODS The information of all newly diagn...
