a systematic review was conducted covering the action of red laser, infrared and combination of both, with emphasis on cutaneous wound therapy, showing the different settings on parameters such as fluency, power, energy density, time of application, frequency mode and even the type of low-power lasers and their wavelengths. it was observed that in general, the lasers brings good clinical and hi...

water content plays an important role in the process of plant photosynthesis and biomass accumulation. many methods have been developed to retrieve canopy leaf water content from remote sensing data. however, the validity of these methods has not been verified, which limits their applications. this study estimates the leaf water content (lwc) of winter wheat with three most widely used indexes:...

background: cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by l. major is an important public health problem in endemic areas. the aim of this study was to explore the therapeutic effect of microwave and or infrared radiation in the treatment of lesion induced in balb/c mice by l. major inoculation. methods: the footpad lesion was induced in balb/c mice by inoculation of l. major promastigotes subcutaneously. ...

the ir and nmr spectra were coupled with quantum chemical calculations in dft approach usingthe hybrid b3lyp exchange-correlation functional to confirm the structure of 2-methoxycarbonyl-7-methyl-1,3-thiazino[3,2-b][1,2,4]triazine-4,8-dione 2d.

sepiolite deposits have been recently discovered in northeastern iran. however, there is still little information about its physicochemical and mineralogical characteristics. therefore, the collapse of the sepiolite (with sizes of < 63 μm) structure induced by temperature elevation in an electric furnace at 350, 550, and 850 °c for 4 hours was studied using x-ray diffraction (xrd) in combinatio...

objective: the main objective pursued in this paper is to investigate the energy consumption for drying of potato slices using vacuum-infrared drying method. methods: drying of potato slices with the thicknesses of 1, 2 and 3 mm were conducted at vacuum levels of zero (without vacuum), 20, 80 and 140 mm [hg], infrared radiation at power levels of 100, 150 and 200 w in the three repetition. resu...

the study aimed to investigate the adsorption mechanism of di-n-butyl phthalate (dbp) onbrown soil and red soil in shenyang and hunan province, respectively, china. adsorption kinetics andisotherms experiments were conducted at 288, 298 and 308 k, respectively. results of kinetics showed thatadsorption of dbp exhibited a two-step process in both brown and red soil. different models were used to...
