BACKGROUND PCR has been used for confirmation of leishmaniasis in epidemiological studies, but complexity of DNA extraction and PCR approach has confined its routine use in developing countries. OBJECTIVES In this study, recent epidemiological situation of cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in two hyper-endemic metropolises of Shiraz and Isfahan in Iran was studied using DNA extraction by commercia...

In this research multiple-regression analysis with stepwise selection method was employed for investigating the effectof vertical building envelopes solar radiation (Evr) on cooling energy consumption (E cooling) in residential sector.The high capacity of solar energy in semi-arid climate (Shiraz) can provide a part of buildings required energy. Dependson house orientations in two directions of...

Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon (Cs) grapevines were grown at near optimal temperatures (25 or 35 °C). Gas exchange, fluorescence, metabolic profiling and correlation based network analysis were used to characterize leaf physiology. When grown at 25 °C, the growth rate and photosynthesis of both cultivars were similar. At 35 °C Shiraz showed increased respiration, non-photochemical quenching and ...
