magnetotelluric (mt) method is an important passive surface geophysical method which uses the earth’s natural electromagnetic fields to investigate the electrical resistivity structure of the subsurface. the depth of investigation of mt is much higher than that of other electromagnetic (em) methods (vozoff, 1991). for a general conductivity distribution in the earth, the horizontal electric fie...

In this work, a new cobalt(III) complex, [Co(HEAC)2]ClO4’”2.5H2O (1), with the HEAC, 2(2-(2-hydroxyethylamino)ethylamino)cyclohexanol, was prepared and identified by elemental analysis, FT-IR and UV-Vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and single-crystal X-Ray diffraction. The cobalt atom in the crystal structure of 1 has a distorted octahedral geometry by coordination of the four nitrogen and ...

background & aim: medicinal plants is very potential to be used as a supplementary feed as well as feed additive in broilers.this experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of milk thistle (mt) and thyme seeds (ts) on the performance in broilers. experimental: in this study, 160 one-day-old (ross 308) male broiler chicks were divided randomly into four major groups with 4 replicate...

In this study, the nearly complete sequence (14,519 bp) of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of the entomophagous endoparasite Xenos vesparum (Insecta: Strepsiptera) is described. All protein coding genes (PCGs) are in the arrangement known to be ancestral for insects, but three tRNA genes (trnA, trnS(gcu), and trnL(uag)) have transposed to derived positions and there are three tandem copies of trn...

Background: Microtubules (MT) are important components of cell cytoskeleton and play key roles in cell motility mitosis and meiosis. They are also the targets of several anticancer agents which indicating their importance in maintaining cell viability. Microtubular reorganization contributing to apoptotic morphology occurs in normal and neoplastic cells undergoing apoptosis induced by cytotoxic...

Background: The aim of this study was to use Japanese quail as an animal model to evaluate the effects of cadmium (Cd) on the ultrastructure and the activity of metallothionein (MT) in the liver and kidneys. Methods: One hundred male Japanese quails were randomly divided into two Cd and control groups in 2015. The first group received 100 ppm Cd for 60 days in their feed. The ultrastructural c...

Objective: In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of Music Therapy (MT) along with Play Therapy (PT) on increasing appropriate Social Behaviors (SBs) and decreasing inappropriate stereotyped behaviors of children with autism. Methods: This is an experimental study, and we used pre-test and post-test control group design to analyze the data. The study sample included 30 children with...

Plants are generally subjected to a combination of different conditions such as magnetic field and soil bacteria in their life. The present investigation tried to compare the effects and interactions of magnetic field and rhizobial inoculant in alfalfa. A pot experiment was performed under a natural condition by a factorial design to ...
