BACKGROUND In spite of the fact that terbium is one of the rarest elements in the Earth's crust, it is frequently used for the production of high technological materials. At the result, an effective combination of sample preparation procedure and detection method for terbium ions in different matrices is highly required. The solid-phase extraction procedure with natural Transcarpathian clinopti...

microencapsulation has become a common technique in the production of controlled release dosage forms. many results have been reported, concerning the use of alginate beads as controlled release drug formulations. alginate has a unique gel-forming property in the presence of multivalent cations, in an aqueous medium. ibuprofen is an excellent analgesic and antipyretic, non-steroidal anti-inflam...

we investigated contraction to noradrenaline (na) and kc1 and sensitivity of na at the level of larger vessels (thoracic aorta and vena cava; left renal artery and left renal vein; lateral saphenous artery and lateral saphenous vein and finally central ear artery and marginal ear vein) in a model devised to mimic heart failure. the model presented here is the rabbit coronary ligation model in w...

the sargaz granitic intrusion has been emplaced in sargaz ophiolitic suite, south-east of sanandaj-sirjan metamorphic zone, south of kerman province. the central part of the intrusive body contains pinkish coarse-grained granite, but the fractured northern part, neighboring chah-mazraeh fault, has been subjected to pervasive na-metasomatism and related subsolidus reactions. in the northern alte...

in wheat na+ exclusion and k+/na+ have shown to be associated with salinity tolerance, therefore in order to identify qtls with additive effect for na+ and k+ concentration traits in roots and shoots of wheat, 319  bread wheat recombinant inbred lines (ril f7), derived from a cross between roshan cultivar (salt tolerant) and falat cultivar (salt sensitive), along with their parents and 2 checks...
