abstractthe purpose of this study was to compare the heavy metal uptake of cd in liver tissue of endemic fish aphanius sophiae in the saltwater eshtehard of karaj and fresh water in laboratory conditions, the relationship between cadmium accumulation in the liver, the effect of salinity and different concentrations of cd uptake. sampling did randomly from salt river in the spring and summer 201...

Through this paper work we have analyzed the effect of different contaminants on the flashover by creating artificial pollution condition, considering the natural condition where more than one salt as contaminant deposits on the surface of insulator at a time, under the wet condition that cause flow of highly leakage current, that leads to flashover. We choses the mixture of different salts, so...

Abstract Natural gas hydrates are the largest reservoir of natural on earth and represent an important solution for transition from actual energy scenario to a renewable one. Methane, contained in hydrate reservoirs, can be replaced with carbon dioxide, so that obtained fuel is neutral terms climate-changing emissions therefore equivalent sources. The experimental tests presented this paper dev...

Sulfur mustard (bis[2-chloroethyl]sulfide; C4H8Cl2S; CASRN: 505-60-2) or as it is commonly called, ‘mustard gas’, is one of a class of vesicant chemical warfare agents with the ability to form vesicles or blisters on exposed skin. Sulfur mustard is a viscous liquid at ambient temperature, but becomes a solid at 58 °F (14 °C). It is heavier than water as a liquid and heavier than air as a vapor....

Cerebral circulation is known to be vulnerable to high salt loading. However, no study has investigated the effects of excess salt on focal ischemic brain injury. After 14 days of salt loading (0.9% saline) or water, spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY) were subjected to photothrombotic middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO), and infarct volume was det...

Fifty sampling stations have been identified and water samples were collected from June to May 2008, to know the groundwater quality of Greater Visakhapatnam city using Water Quality Index. The samples were analyzed for the physico-chemical parameters like Temperature, pH, Conductivity, Total dissolved solids, Dissolved Oxygen, Hardness, Calcium, Magnesium, Alkalinity, Chloride and Nitrate. The...

Deprotonation of N,N-diisopropyl-C-ferrocenylaldiminium triflate 2 cleanly leads to the corresponding 1,2-diamino-1,2-diferrocenylethene 3, the dimer of the desired (amino)(ferrocenyl)carbene. Fulvene 6, obtained by addition of the lithium salt of tetramethylcyclopentadiene to methoxyformamidinium methylsulfate 5, reacts with dicarbonylcyclopentadienylbromoiron(II), and with a mixture of FeCl(2...

INTRODUCTION Although the salmon is probably the best known euryhaline fish, for the first 2 or 3 years of its life it is stenohaline. The salmon becomes euryhaline only in the smolt stage, the process of 'smoltification' taking place in April or May in fish 2 or 3 years old, although a proportion of late parr can tolerate sea water. In recent years a more detailed picture has emerged of salt a...

Drug-induced cholestasis (DIC) is poorly understood and its preclinical prediction is mainly limited to assessing the compound's potential to inhibit the bile salt export pump (BSEP). Here, we evaluated two 3D spheroid models, one from primary human hepatocytes (PHH) and one from HepaRG cells, for the detection of compounds with cholestatic liability. By repeatedly co-exposing both models to a ...
