in this research degradation and mineralization of ortho-toluidine (ot) in the wastewater of petrochemical industries was investigated by uv/tio 2 process in a batch recirculating photo reactor. the influence of different variables such as initial ph, amount of tio 2 and initial concentration of ot on the reaction rate was investigated. in optimum conditions (1.75 g/l of catalyst, ph at 7 and i...

In a reverse microemulsion consisting of water, oil (octane), an anionic surfactant [aerosol OT (AOT)], and the reactants of the oscillating Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction, a variety of complex spatiotemporal patterns appear. These include traveling and standing waves, spirals that move either toward or away from their centers, spatiotemporal chaos, Turing patterns, segmented waves, and loc...

Background: The capability of embryonic carcinoma cells P19 in differentiation to Cardiomyocyte was examined through inducing effects of Oxytocin (OT) and 5-Azacytidin (5Az) individually and compared with each other in laboratory condition. Materials and Methods: P19 Embryoid Bodies (EBs) was formed through hanging drops method. Then, EBs were treated with (5Az) or (OT) and the EB medium (Ct...

We measure cross-diffusion coefficients in a five-component system, an aerosol OT (AOT) water-in-oil microemulsion loaded with two constituents of the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction (H(2) O/AOT/BZ1/BZ2/octane). The species BZ1 is either NaBr, an inhibitor of the BZ reaction, or ferroin, a catalyst for the reaction. As species BZ2, we choose Br(2) , an intermediate in the reaction. The cross...

This year is the 50th anniversary of Occupational Therapy (OT) in Iran. This is a hallmark to reflect on our achievements and plan for the future. Iranian OT was established in 1971 in Shafa Rehabilitation Hospital [1]. I can imagine how many people who were the managers facilitating the foundation of the department or those who were overseas occupational therapists were excited at the time. Th...

background: helicobacter pylori, which is associated with many upper gastrointestinal diseases, is found in half of the population of the world. several special stains and immunohistochemistry stain for h. pylori are available. the need for and usefulness of immunohistochemical (ihc) technique has been debated for years. toluidine blue is a simple stain for microbiological studies and is easily...

statement of problem: early diagnoses of oral malignancies and pre-malignancies have direct effect in the outcome of these lesions. therefore the techniques for early diagnosis have been considered as useful method in practice. purpose: the aim of this study was to evaluate the reliability of oratest and generic toluidine blue (gtb) in the detection of oral malignancy and premalignancy. materia...

Toluidine blue and toluidine blue-nanogold mixtures were incorporated into polyurethane and silicone polymers by a swell-encapsulation-shrink method using acetone-water mixtures. The surface and mechanical properties of the polymers were changed by the swell-shrink process especially the Young’s modulus, but not by the introduction of toluidine blue or nanogold. The antibacterial properties of ...

Objective behind the study was to assess the efficacy of Toluidine Blue (TB) mouth rinse in the detection of neoplasia in oral cavity and to evaluate its usefulness in high risk groups. Correlation of the results of scrape cytology smear and histopathology of biopsy taken from the TB stained area was also done. This prospective study was carried out on 85 cases of suspected oral lesions. Comple...
