Nevertheless, it is important to highlight that the most economical supplier may not be the one that has the lowest purchase price. The cheapest supplier is the one that represents the lowest cost to the company, after being considered various aspects of supplying, such as quality, reliability of deliveries, the history of s...

In order to investigate the effects of canopy-dependent processes on throughfall chemistry, comparative studies on the chemical composition of throughfall were carried out in five characteristic forest types of the southeastern United States within Fort Benning Military Installation from January 2002 to August 2003. The concentrations and fluxes of and total organic carbon (TOC), total Kjeldahl...

OBJECTIVE To estimate and predict changes in the cat population of Australian households from 1979 to 2005. METHOD Telephone surveys were used to estimate Australia's total household cat population for each year from 1979 to 1999. A simple mathematical model based on population characteristics in 1995 was used to predict future population changes to 2005. Estimates and predictions for 1996 to...

The ability to achieve meaningful decreases in sediment loads to reservoirs requires a determination of the relative importance of sediment sources within the contributing basins. In an investigation of sources of fine-grained sediment (clay and silt) within the Perry Lake Basin in northeast Kansas, representative samples of channel-bank sources, surface-soil sources (cropland and grassland), a...

to evaluate the relationship between total organic carbon (toc) and rock-eval s2 (petroleum potential) of petroleum source rocks, atotal of 180 outcrop samples from the black organic matter–rich facies of mesozoic strata from a locality of southwest of iran wereinvestigated using rock-eval vi pyrolysis and leco carbon analyzer. the linear regression is applied to determine the correlationbetwee...

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM No study has evaluated the efficacy of auxiliary tooth preparation elements for crowns with originally reduced resistance form. PURPOSE This study evaluated the effects of different auxiliary preparation features on the resistance form of crowns with reduced axial wall and total occlusal convergence. MATERIAL AND METHODS An Ivorine tooth was prepared on a milling machin...

Background: As a human carcinogen, formaldehyde is a toxic chemical imposing adverse effects on public health and environment. Due to its high reactivity, colorless nature, sustainability, purity in commercial forms, and low prices, the production and consumption of this compound has expanded vastly in industries. Methods: In this study, a UVC photoreactor with a total volume of 120 mL was us...
