to study the tolerance of genotypes under terminal drought stress, 20 promising winter and facultative bread wheat genotypes were evaluated at karadj, ardebil, arak and hamedan agricultural research stations during 2001-02 cropping season. the experimental design in all the locations was randomized complete block of three replications. grain yield (yld), harvest index (hi), grain number per spi...

using medicinal plants as drug or spice in food have significantly increased in recent decades. also, production of this plants restricted by drought stress. therefor the aim of this was investigation of drought stress effect on fruit and essential oil yield of different endemic coriander genotypes. in this regard, 14 coriander genotypes subjected to two levels of water treatments in two separa...

This paper describes the use of an a posteriori error estimator to control anisotropic mesh adaptation for computing inviscid compressible flows. The a posteriori error estimator and the coupling strategy with an anisotropic remesher are first introduced. The mesh adaptation is controlled by a single-parameter tolerance (TOL) in regions where the solution is regular, whereas a condition on the ...

IFN-gamma has been shown to inhibit monocyte (Mo) differentiation into mature dendritic cells (DC). Because IFN-gamma also plays a role in tolerance induction, we asked whether this could be related to generation of tolerogenic DC (Tol-DC). Toward this aim, we cultured Mo with GM-CSF plus IL-4 in the presence or absence of IFN-gamma for 6 days and induced their maturation with TNF-alpha for 2 a...

We present VLT spectroscopic observations with different spectral resolutions and different slit orientations of the two metal-deficient blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxies Tol 1214–277 and Tol 65. The oxygen abundances in the brightest H ii regions of Tol 1214–277 and Tol 65 are found to be 12 + log O/H = 7.55 ± 0.01 and 7.54 ± 0.01, or Z⊙/24 . The nitrogen-to-oxygen abundance ratios in the two ...

In order to evaluation of drought resistant indices in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.), 10 barley genotypes evaluated in Completely Randomized Design with three Replications in two conditions, (under drought stress and in normal with irrigation in planting, flowering and grain filling stages) in Islamic Azad University, Miyaneh Branch Research Farm in 2012. Drought tolerant indices basis of yield p...

Carboxylic acids may be metabolized to acyl glucuronides and acyl-coenzyme A thioesters (acyl-CoAs), which are reactive metabolites capable of reacting with proteins in vivo. In this study, the metabolic activation of tolmetin (Tol) to reactive metabolites and the subsequent formation of Tol-protein adducts in the liver were studied in rats. Two hours after dose administration (100 mg/kg i.p.),...

OBJECTIVES To explore serum and tissue pharmacodynamics of linezolid versus vancomycin against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) clinical isolates with different MBC/MIC ratios. METHODS Five strains (vancomycin MIC/MBCs, mg/L) were used: TOL-1 (2/≥64), TOL-2 (1/16), LT-1 and LT-2 (1/8) and NT (1/2). The linezolid MIC/MBC for all strains was 2/≥64 mg/L. A two-compartment dynam...
