backgrounds and aims: stroke incidence rate has increased during the past 2 decades. the question of whether calcium, chloride, potassium, sodium levels are associated with stroke has remained controversial. the present study aimed to evaluate the serum levels of potassium, sodium, calcium, and chloride within stroke patients. materials and methods: the study participants consisted of 53 cconse...

regarding many disadvantages of traditional method to produce concentrated yoghurt, several attempts have been done for mechanization of process in industrial scale. using membrane systems especially ultra filtration is one of these methods. in this survey, method to produce direct concentrated yoghurt, fresh milk was concentrated to 19% snf by ultra filtration method then diluted to 13 and 16 ...

oral supplementation with 50, 100 and 150 ?g/ml calcium chloride to the fifth stadium larvae of csr2xcsr4 biovoltine hybrid silkworm, b. mori on fat body glycogen, protein, and total lipids and haemolymph trehalose and protein have been studied. one of the four normal feeds per day was substituted with treated leaves fed to silkworms at fifth instar larvae. the controls were fed with the leaves...

in order to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of postharvest salicylic acid and calcium chloride on shelf life, quality characteristics and antioxidant activity of peach fruit cv. amesden, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on randomized completely design with three replications. fruits were harvested at the commercial ripening stage, and fruits were immerged in differ...

debaryomyces hansenizopf isolated from the fructoplane of apples were found to be effective as biocontrol agent against rot of papaya caused by ulocladium. chartarum(pr.) simm. the ability of d. hansenii to prevent infection of u. chartarum was lost when the antagonist cells were killed by autoclaving. cell free culture filtrates of antagonist were unable to prevent disease incidence. efficacy ...

expansive soils are considered a worldwide problem as they cause extensive damage tocivil engineering structures. an important characteristic of expansive soils is theirsusceptibility to volume change due to the phenomenon of wetting and drying. this paperpresets the effect of pore water quality on the swelling and shrinkage behavior of anexpansive soil during wetting and drying cycles. thirty ...

effect of calcium chloride on tomato quality and shelf life of petoearly ch, koral and rio grand tomato cultivars were studied at the agricultural and natural resources research center of west azerbaijan, iran over 2002-2003. a calcium chloride solution in 0,0.5% and 1% concentrations was sprayed on the tomatoes three times. the fruit was harvested at the mature green stage and stored in cold s...

calcium dichloride tetra urea was prepared by the reaction of calcium chloride with urea in aqueous solution. the crystals are monoclinic, a= 7.633, b= 12.45 1, c= 8.118 ?,? = 113.17, z = 4, space group p 2,/a. the crystal structure was determined by single crystal x-ray methods and refined to r= 0.041. the calcium atoms are coordinated to four oxygen atoms of urea and to two chloride ions. the...
