introduction the plant hormones such as salicylic acid and gibberellin can affect the quantity and quality of crops. external application of plant growth regulators as a strategy for improving salt tolerance in plants is discussed. foreign salicylic acid can regulate antioxidant enzyme activity and increase plant resistance to abiotic stresses. salicylic acid reduction due to ethylene through t...

abstract application of chemicals which activate plant defense mechanisms before pathogen attack without environmental side effects of protective chemical agents have stimulated great deal of researches in this area. one of the important crops in the world is tomato and recently recognized as a model plant for plant-pathogen interactions. tomato early blight is one of the most devastating disea...

In this study some selected chemical properties such as total soluble solids, pH, total acidity, formalin index,  reduced sugar content and ascorbic acid of major sour cherry cultivated grown in different provinces of Iran corresponding were investigated.  Minerals K+, Na+, Ca2+, Mg2+, Cu2+, Fe2+ and Zn2+ were determined by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The result showed...

background: vaginal atrophy is a common complication in menopause which does not improve with time and, if untreated, can affect the quality of life for women. the aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness of the vaginal cream of hyaluronic acid and conjugated estrogen (premarin) in treatment of vaginal atrophy. methods: this study was a randomized controlled clinical trial on 56 menop...

although water and land pollution are very dangerous, air pollution has its own peculiarities due to its transboundary dispersion of pollutants over the entire world. in any well planned urban set up, industrial pollution takes a back seat and vehicular emissions take precedence as the major cause of urban air pollution. in the present study, air pollution tolerance index was calculated for var...

Background: Natural organic matters (NOMs) have the main role in formation of trihalomethanes. These compounds are in natural water sources due to biological activities. In the presented study, adsorption and separation of humic acid as an index of natural organic matters using multi-walled carbon nanotubes is evaluated. Methods: The experiments were carried out in bath adsorption reactors wit...

objectives: iron chelators, such as maltol and kojic acid, have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. they may have beneficial effects on inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) because iron can develop and aggravate inflammation in ibd. in the present study, the effect of selected iron chelators and anti-oxidants were evaluated on a model of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (tnbs)-induced coliti...
