Introduction: Several supra spinal areas such as rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM) area are involved in basic cardiovascular regulation. The Kolliker— Fuse nucleus (KF) is located in pons and is heavily connected with RVLM. The cardiovascular effect of KF nucleus has been shown and it is suggested that KF is involved in sympathetic vasomotor tone and basic cardiovascular regulation. Therefor...

The present study describes the adsorption of textile dye on rice hull. The adsorption parameters were obtained from Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms utilizing linear regression plots to fit the data. The results showed that Langmuir equation was more suitable than the Freundlich one to predict the experimental adsorption isotherms, indicating that the adsorption of dye molecules is localized ...

This study focuses on the assessment of herbicide adsorption and degradation in three soils (Haplic Chernozem, Haplic Fluvisol, Arenic Regozem) from different agricultural regions Czech Republic where sunflower is cultivated. Soil samples were used laboratory batch experiments for six herbicides commonly crops. The findings are to examine effect soil properties degradation, as well determine po...

Antibiotics in wastewater, sewage sludge, manures, and slurries constitute a risk for the environment when spread on soils. This work studies adsorption desorption of antibiotic cefuroxime (CFX) 23 agricultural forest soils, using batch-type experiments. Our results show that values were between 40.75 99.57% while range was lower (from 74.57 to 93.46%) Among Freundlich, Langmuir, Linear models,...

The physiological cross-sectional area (PCSA) of knee extensors (KE) and flexors (KF) was determined using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in humans. Twenty two healthy male volunteers were assigned to the subjects and MRI was taken to obtained 41•`52 consecutive axial images (slice thickness ;10 mm, interslice gap ; 0 mm) from right-leg thigh. From these images, anatomical cross-sectional are...

PURPOSE The sorption behavior of the herbicide 4-chloro-2-methylphenoxyacetic acid (MCPA) to three different artificial soil mixtures was investigated. Artificial soils serve as model systems for improving understanding of sorption phenomena. MATERIALS AND METHODS The soils consisted of quartz, ferrihydrite, illite, montmorillonite, and charcoal. In a previous study, several selected mixtures...

The adsorption of dyes in the solutions using activated sludge might be a promising approach in wastewater treatment units. The adsorption of Basic Red 18 and Basic Blue 9 from aqueous solution by dried activated sludge was investigated with in a batch system. The activated sludge had the highest dye uptake capacity, having the monolayer adsorption capacity 285.71 and 256.41 mg g(-1) for Basic ...

Polyaniline titanotungstate (PATiW) was synthesized by the sol-gel method. Adsorption isotherm studies of Cs from aqueous solution are described. Elemental Composition, chemical solubility, ion-exchange capacity (IEC) and pH titration are studied. Distribution coefficients (Kd) for ten metal ions have been determined. It was found that the polyaniline titanotungstate has high affinity and high ...

Removal of fluoride ions was investigated using a new adsorbent of yttrium alginate biocomposite (YALG). Effect of various parameters such as pH, contact time, initial concentration of fluoride ions and temperature on the sorption capacity of adsorbent was studied. Performing a mathematical assessment of fluoride sorption, isotherm and kinetics models including Freundlich & Langmuir isotherms a...
