the 17-4ph alloy is a martensitic stainless steel with 3–5 wt% cu, strengthened by the precipitation hardening. due to excellent mechanical properties, corrosion resistance and ease of heat treatment, this alloy has unique applications in nuclear power plants and marine constructions. in this paper, the influence of ageing heat treatment, solution annealing followed by ageing at 480, 550 and 62...

background: in this study, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-de) method was applied to determine and compare the protein spots expressed in the two field isolates of leishmania major and recovered from the patients who were clinically sensitive and resistant to glucantime® treatment. methods: leishmania parasites were isolated from the cutaneous lesions of two cl infected patients in shira...

background: to perform screening for colonic cancer and to diagnose other colic diseases, colonoscopies are required. comfort of patient during colonoscopy is very important. currently, there are two types of sedation used during colonoscopy-the general anesthesia and sedoanalgesia. sedo-analgesia is the most frequently used type of sedation employed during colonoscopy worldwide. materials and ...

in this research, nanoporous silica (sba-15) was physically functionalized using2-(2-nitrobenzylideneamino) guanidine compound. this functionalized sba-15 was utilized as a new sorbentfor separation and preconcentration of some lanthanide ions. inductively coupled plasma optical emissionspectrometry (icp-oes) was used as a detection technique. the preconcentration factor of the method is 100and...

alzheimer's disease (ad) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease characterized by memory and cognitive dysfunction due to neuronal cell loss in higher brain centers. senile plaques containing amyloid β (aβ) are associated with this disease as well as a reduction in cholinergic neuron numbers. tacrine is a reversible cholinesterase inhibitor in clinical use to treat moderate forms of ad. chit...

with the aim to examine lead tolerance of populus nigra (clone 62/154) in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, a greenhouse experiment was carried out in a factorial randomized complete scheme with two factors 1) fungal inoculation in 4 levels (control, inoculation with glomus mosseae, inoculation with g. intraradices and inoculation with g. mosseae + g. intraradices) and 2) lead in 4 l...

regarding the green chemistry's goals, dicationic magnetic room temperature ionic liquid open up new avenue to introduce an amazing and efficient system for facilitating catalyst recovery in different organic reactions. ability of this dicationic magnetic room temperature ionic liquid catalyst in the one-pot three-components condensation reaction of benzil, aromatic aldehyde, and ammonium aceta...

mfi-type zeolite membranes (zsm-5) were prepared on α-alumina tubular supports and tested for separation of h2/co mixtures. the effect of pressure and temperature on h2 and co flows and selectivity was investigated. the best results in this work were obtained with a zsm-5 membrane prepared over a porous α-alumina tube seeded with zeolite nanocrystals synthesized with microwave technique. in thi...

background: it has been proposed that oxidative stress plays an important role in male infertility. the aims of this study were to compare seminal plasma levels of 15-f2t-isoprostane (8-iso-pgf2?), malondialdehyde (mda), and total (sum of free and bound) homocysteine (thcy) in normozoospermic vs. asthenozoospermic men, and to examine the relationships between thcy and lipid peroxidation product...
