in this study, a simple, rapid and selective method was developed for the determination of dexamethasone. the proposed method is based on inhibitory effect of dexamethasone on the oxidation of orange-g by bromate in sulfuric acid media. the reaction was followed spectrophotometrically at 478.5 nm (?max). under optimum experimental conditions, (72.6 ?mol l-1 of orange-g, 0.76 mol l-1 of h2so4, 0...

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...
