world apricot (prunus armeniaca l.)  production is increasing steadily due to breeding of new high yielding cultivars in different countries. more recently, breeding programs have been modified according to consumers’ demands and also improvement in resistance to diseases (sharka, monilinia etc.), frost damages, and determination of self-(in) compatibility. in this study, fourteen apricot breed...

Background: Sumac (Rhus coriaria L.) belongs to Anacardiaceae family. The dried and powdered fruits are used as a food flavoring and medicinal plant. Objective: In this study, variability of fatty acid composition in some wild sumac fruits were investigated. Method: The samples were collected from their natural origins in central parts of Iran; Isfahan and Markazi province in the September to...

this paper reviews the use of texture analysis in studying the performance of hydrophilic matrices of highly soluble drugs and different types of excipients (i.e. water-soluble, water-insoluble and swellable, and water insoluble and non-swellable). tablets were prepared by direct compression, and their swelling and erosion in presence of these different excipients were assessed with the help of...

Artificial reefs have proven to be an optimal and effective solution in stabilizing coastlines around the world. They are submerged structures that imitate protection service provided by natural accomplishing functions of dissipating wave energy protecting beach morphology, but also being ecological solution. In this paper, 2D small-scale experiments were performed analyze hydrodynamic, morphol...

The morphological states of Guyana’s coastal system, at various spatial and temporal scales, are found to be influenced by the formation and migration of mudbanks. Stationary and propagating mudbanks along the coast are investigated with the use of multiple data sources, including aerial photographs, satellite imagery, GPS measurements, and a time series of coastal profile data (1941-1987...

acute lymphoblastic leukemia (all) is a malignant disorder of lymphoid precursor cells, which could be classified according to morphological and cytochemical methods as well as immunophenotyping. twenty patients with all, who had been referred to the children's medical center hospital, during the year 2007, were enrolled in this study in order to evaluate the morphologic and immunophenotypic pr...
