Background and objectives: Salvia species are important because of their medicinal, traditional and economical uses. They are used traditionally for treatment of several diseases. The genus Salvia is represented in the Iranian flora by 61 species of which, 17 are endemic.  In the present study, the phytochemical and biological effects of two Iranian Salvia species hav...

Colorless Na4(Al3Si3O12)Cl sodalite exhibits the propensity to host sulfur atoms that give rise interesting optical properties. Namely, observed color, luminescence, and photochromism properties are commonly associated with presence of specific (Sn)x− species (n = 2 or 3; x 1 2) trapped in lattice concomitantly chlorine vacancies, when needed for charge balance. In this paper, we present a theo...

OBJECTIVE To identify the clinical variables that differentiate MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus) from MSSA (Methicillin-sensitive S. aureus) infection. METHODS Cases having culture isolates of Staphylococcus species were recruited. Baseline and other laboratory parameters were compared between MSSA and MRSA sub-groups to identify the predictors for MRSA. RESULTS Out of 98 ...

In this paper, the electrical characteristics and sensitivity analysis of staggered type p-channel heterojunction electron-hole bilayer tunnel field effect transistor (HJ-EHBTFET) are thoroughly investigated via simulation study. The minimum lattice mismatch between InAs/GaAs0.1Sb0.9 layers besides low carrier effective mass of materials provides high probability ...

Critical thermal limits form an increasing component of the estimation of impacts of global change on ectotherms. Whether any consistent patterns exist in the interactive effects of rates of temperature change (or experimental ramping rates) and acclimation on critical thermal limits and warming tolerance (one way of assessing sensitivity to climate change) is, however, far from clear. Here, we...

   Significant effects of magnetic iron oxide (Fe3O4) nanoparticles on the potentiometric behavior of carbon paste electrode for bio determination of Isoniazid aromatic drug (INH) were studied. The electrochemical performance of modified Fe3O4/CPE was investigated. The constructed Fe3O4/CPE showed high precision, sensitivity ...
