During the operation of battery, its parameters change, declining with rate affected by natural aging processes or faults. To obtain information about changes in battery when faults occur and develop, methods their simulation have been developed. The change voltage under influence reference load is determined to reduce charging rate, oxidation pole terminals, plates sulfatation. It established ...

According to the regulations of the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) [1], anabolic androgenic steroids are classified as prohibited substances in sports. They are covered in the section “S1. Anabolic Agents 1. Anabolic Androgenic Steroids (AAS)”. This section is further subdivided into “a. Exogenous AAS” and “b. Endogenous AAS”. AAS represent the class of substances most frequently detected in h...

Studies are described on the phase I and II metabolism and the toxicological analysis of the piperazine-derived designer drug 1-(3-trifluoromethylphenyl)piperazine (TFMPP) in rat urine using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MS). The identified metabolites indicated that TFMPP was extensively metabolized, mainly by hydroxylation of the ...

Thyroid functional status of wild fish in relation with the contamination of their environment deserves further investigation. We here applied a multi-level approach of thyroid function assessment in 87 wild sea bass collected near several estuaries: namely the Scheldt, the Seine, the Loire, the Charente and the Gironde. Thyroxine (T(4)) and triiodothyronine (T(3)) concentrations in muscle were...

moisture and air pollutions intensify metallic and nonmetallic surface corrosions. corroded surfaces exposed to rain washing cause pollution transportation in water and soil environment, especially in industrial areas. investigation of storm runoff quality in pars special economic energy zone (pseez) has shown heavy metals in storm basins of gas refineries and petrochemical industries.in this p...
