a 3-km reach of the luján river was studied by establishing 6 sampling stations, which were from 300 to 500 m apart. the first station was the control reading for river nutrients and particulate material. the second station measured the continuous effluent from a wastewater treatment plant flow of the city of luján and was, therefore, considered a continuous addition point of nutrients. the oth...

abstract background and objective: t3 resin uptake test indicates the availability of thyroxin binding globulin (tbg), which is the carrier of a large amount of t3 and t4 in blood. we aimed to study the relationship between serum t3 resin uptake and serum lipids profile. material and methods: the participants aged 14.80 ± 38.29 were both males (59 29.5%) and females (141 70.5 %). t3 resin uptak...

This report presents the synthesis of a tetraphenyladamantane-based microporous polycyanurate network with a BET surface area of 843 m(2) g(-1) and a pore size of 7.8 Å. It uptakes 98.0 wt% benzene (298 K, P/P0 = 0.9), 1.49 wt% H2 (77 K/1 bar) and 12.8 wt% CO2 (273 K/1 bar) with CO2/N2 selectivity of up to 112.

A new, twofold interpenetrated metal-organic framework (MOF) material has been synthesized that demonstrates dramatic steps in the adsorption and hysteresis in the desorption of CO(2). Measurement of the structure by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis indicates that structural changes upon CO(2) sorption most likely involve the interpenetrated framewor...

Fly ash samples from the five steam electric power stations of the Lignite Center of Western Macedonia were used in this study. They consisted mainly of anhydrite, lime, quartz and amorphous material as well as feldspars, calcite, micas + clays, portlandite and gehlenite which were all present in minor amounts. Anhydrite, lime and portlandite in the fly ash samples diminished upon treatment wit...

increased metabolic activity in muscle secondary to excessive muscle activity during the uptake phase and shortly before fdg injection is a known phenomenon. we present fdg pet/ct findings in a young male, known case of carcinoma maxilla his scan showed diffuse increased metabolic activity in multiple skeletal muscle groups. there was history of unaccustomed, strenuous sports activity of skiing...
