such as varicocele, inflammation, and smoking, are well known to influence the balance between radical production and antioxidant defense. The objective of the present study was to select an efficient Non-steriod Anti- inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) concentrations of sperm activation in vitro for patient complaining from astheno-leucozoospermia. In vitro sperm activation was performed on seminal fl...

sulfonic acid-based precursors (sap) play an important role in tailoring mesoporous silica’s and convert them to a solid acid catalyst with a bronsted-type nature. these kinds of solid acids contribute to sustainable and green chemistry by their heterogeneous, recyclable, and high efficiency features. therefore, knowing the properties and reactivity of saps can guide us to manufacture a sulfona...

impurities of drug substances may produce some side effects in patient. diclofenac na is a member of non-steroidal anti inflammatory drugs (nsaids) family, which is routinely used by patients for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and various pains. to develop a method for the determination of synthetic precursors which could be remained as impurities in raw drug materials, na diclofenac pow...

a simple method has been employed to synthesize copper and copper oxide nanoparticles from copper (ii) succinate precursor by thermal decomposition method using oleylamine as a capping agent. the particles synthesized with oleylamine and triphenylphosphine were well dispersed nanoparticles obtained from x-ray diffraction (xrd). the synthesized copper nanoparticles were characterized by uv-visib...

a two-week tunnel study was conducted in monterrey, mexico during june 2009 to characterizevolatile organic compound (voc) emissions from the local vehicle fleet and estimate the correspondingemission factors (efs). the loma larga tunnel (llt), a 532 meter-long structure that is mainly used by lightduty gasoline-powered vehicles was used as the experimental set-up. ambient air samples (2-hour a...

conclusions scc, lgdn, and hgdn are common associated findings and precursors of hcc in livers infected with hepatitis b. a strict follow-up and a precise and thorough sampling of livers with scc and any abnormal dysplastic nodules (dns), especially those larger than 1 cm, are highly recommended because these dns are highly associated with malignancy. results among all explanted cirrhotic liver...

cell cultures of varthemia persica dc. have been studied to evaluate their abilities in biotransformation of aromatic and aliphatic precursors. v. persica (asteraceae) is an aromatic plant growing in iran. v. persica contain different terpens but its cell culture does not posses these compounds. callus cultures of v. persica was established from seedlings and healthy suspensions were grown usin...

the removal of organic precursors of disinfection by-products (dbps), i.e. natural organic matter (nom), prior to disinfection is considered as the most effective approach to minimise the formation of dbps. trihalomethanes (thms) as the main group of dbps are categorized and considered to have the potentiality of increasing the rate of liver, kidney and cns adverse effects. this study which pre...

An improved quantitative assay for endotoxin in plasma was developed after evaluating three different chromogenic substrates and seven methods for removal of plasma inhibitors. Optimal storage conditions for plasma samples prior to assay were also determined. Using chromogenic substrate S2423 with plasma diluted 1/10 in water and heated to 75 degrees C for 5 min to remove inhibitors, a within-b...
