Background: Radiotherapy is one of the most important factors which results in negative effects on wound healing and increases anastomosis leakage. Diverting loop ileostomy has been usually performed after colorectal anastomosis in cases of colorectal cancer with a history of neoadjuvant radiotherapy to decrease the chance of leakage. Considering the side effects of diverting loop ileostomy, th...

use of wastewater treatment methods in aquaculture is one of the main ways for decreasing the environmental effects of this industry and applies the best management practices (bmps). anionic compounds are the main pollutants in recirculation aquaculture systems. ion exchangers such as clays are vastly applied in waste water industry but in aquaculture systems at yet there isn't any report ...

abstract background and objectives: soil salinity is one of the most important limited factors of plant productions. physiological drought resulting from salinity stress is one of the main reasons of limiting water absorption from soil. moreover, increasing the salt absorption by plants cause to disorder in physiological and cellular processes. spearmint (mentha spicata l.) is from lamiaceae fa...

the effects of coatingtreatments (waxand plasticbags) combined with methylsalicylate on the fruit quality and chilling injury of moro blood orange were studied during storage. treated fruits were kept in storage for 80 days at 5 oc and 90-95% relative humidity. some characteristics such as pulp and skin total phenolics, antioxidant capacity, total anthocyanin, lipid peroxidation, and the chilli...

AIMS Evaluation of the cellular effects of Origanum compactum essential oil on Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 and Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 29213. METHODS AND RESULTS The damage induced by O. compactum essential oil on these two strains has been studied using different techniques: plate count, potassium leakage, flow cytometry (FC) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The results s...

Seedlings of corn (Zea mays) were tested for recovery from chilling injury incurred at 0.3 +/- 0.3 C. At 0.3 C visual leaf injury appeared in 36 hours, whereas stem and root injuries appeared later. Appearance of leaf injury was preceded by a rise in O(2) uptake and a lessened effect of 2,4-dinitrophenol on O(2) uptake by leaf segments and was accompanied by increased ion leakage from the leave...
