a chromium electroplating bath with the ability to produce homogenous mist was used to evaluate parameters influencing hexavalent chromium (cr+6) mist sampling methods. the results of 48 cr+6mist samples collected using the u.s. national institute for occupational safety and health method 7600showed that cr+6concentration was higher: (1) for sampling by closed-face filter cassettes than for sam...

One of the methods for achieving more yields is to use seed priming technique correctly. When it comes to using seed priming, practically important issues should be taken into account including interval between priming to planting and conditions for storage of primed seeds. Thus, it is very crucial to be informed of duration and temperature for storage of primed seeds. This research seeks to co...

oriental hybrid lily “arabian red” mother scales were stored in moist cocopeat and perlite (1:1) for 3 or 5 months at 25 ̊c. the numbers of scale bulblets per mother scale were nearly identical in two durations. increasing storage duration promoted the growth of roots (number and length) and no. scales per scale bulblets. and, diameters of scale bulblets were more in longer storage duration (5 m...

conclusions comparing the serum lactate level before operation and 24 hours after the operation showed that the number of received blood units had a significant effect on serum lactate. we found no significant effect for blood storage duration; however, the number of given blood units was more significant. patients and methods in a cross-sectional study, 228 patients referred to three hospitals...
