In the present study we focused on the electronic and structural properties of Na and Mg adsorption on the surface of the (6, 6) armchair SiCNTs. The adsorption energy (Eads), band gap energy (Eg), partial density of state (PDOS), chemical potential (μ), global hardness (η), electrophilicity index (ω), global softness (S), work function values (φ) and work function change (Δφ) are calculated by...

In an effort to determine the subcellular localization of sodium- and potassium-activated adenosine triphosphatase (Na(+), K(+)-ATPase) in the pseudobranch of the pinfish Lagodon rhomboides, this tissue was fractionated by differential centrifugation and the activities of several marker enzymes in the fractions were measured. Cytochrome c oxidase was found primarily in the mitochondrial-light m...

a solution culture experiment was conducted to evaluate the salinity tolerance of 15 tomato genotypes in hoagland’s nutrient solution with three levels of nacl (0, 75, and 150 mm). the experiment was conducted in completely randomized design with three replicates. after 30 days of imposition of salt stress, gas exchange parameters including transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, co2 assimila...

Ion movements associated with the pH rise that is observed upon illumination of thylakoid suspensions at low pH have been studied by a multiparameter technique. Light-dependent, dark-reversible fluxes of H(+), Cl(-), Na(+), K(+) and divalent cations were monitored, together with simultaneous changes in the optical density of the suspension. Extensive uptake of Cl(-) and efflux of Mg(2+) accompa...

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...

in this study, the effects of long term use of urban wastewater (over 40 years) on soil salt content and related parameters were evaluated in the lands south of tehran. for this analysis, kriging methods were tested. according to the suitable model indices, ordinary kriging (ok) was suitable for ph, clay, na+, mg2+ and sodium adsorption ratio (sar) interpolation; log-normal kriging (log-normal ...

in this research, the groundwater quality of hoz–e–soltan lake and its catchment was studied for drinking, domestic and irrigation uses according to different parameters. this lake with 195 km2 catchment area is located 85 km of southwest of tehran–qom highway. in order to investigate groundwater quality characteristics in the study area, 34 data from water of well belong to 2008 selected to pr...
