in this paper‎, ‎we consider the following kirchhoff-type equations‎: ‎$-‎left(a+bint_{mathbb{r}^{3}}|nabla u|^{2}right)delta u+v(x) u=lambda$ $f(x,u)+u^{5}‎, ‎quad mbox{in }mathbb{r}^{3},$ ‎$u(x)>0‎, ‎quad mbox{in }mathbb{r}^{3},$ ‎$uin h^{1}(mathbb{r}^{3})‎ ,‎$ ‎ ‎‎‎where $a,b>0$ are constants and $lambda$ is a positive parameter‎. ‎the aim of this paper is to study the existence of positive ...

today export diversification has become one of the most important economic objectives of development strategies in the developing countries. for various reasons, such as preventing instability in export prices of primary products in global markets, reducing fluctuations in exchanges of them compared with industrial goods, producing dynamic benefits resulted from exporting various goods and incr...

the experiment was conducted to evaluate the prevalence of lernaea cyprinacea and its effects on growth, hematology and skin histopathology of catla catla in four experimental earthen ponds (p1, p2, p3 and p4) for 90 days. the growth performance, prevalence of lernaea cyprinacea and ulceration was recorded on a fortnightly basis. the highest final body weight was observed in p4 (413.7 g) follow...

abstract aims: one of the consequences of taking ground water into surface is changing its chemical quality, specially increasing the concentration of dissolved salts. this research was performed in order to analyze growth possibility of heterotrophic bacteria in the membrane of active desalination plants in kashan city, iran. instrument & methods: this descriptive cross-sectional study was don...

oligohydramnios is frequently used to identify at risk fetuses. the purpose of this study was to assess adverse perinatal outcomes in oligohydramnios. subjects comprised pregnant women diagnosed either with (590) or without (597) oligohydramnios who delivered after hospital admittance from 2000 to 2010 . data, including the resuscitation of newborn, apgar score at 5 min, nicu admission, death i...

application of most antibiotic growth promoters as feed additives has been banned in a lot of countries due to cross-resistance against pathogens and residues in tissues. therefore, scientists are searching for alternatives to antibiotics nowadays. medicinal plant extracts are one of the alternatives that have anti-microbial and growth promoting effect on poultry. in this paper, the benefits of...

some 190 specimens of sefidrud loach, oxynoemacheilus bergianus , were collected from aras river (northwestern iran) and age, size, and some biological characteristics of the samples were investigated from march to july 2013. the maximum age was 3 + years. the specimens ranged in size from 42 to 64mm for males and 45 to 61mm for females in total length, weighing from 0.62 to 2.03g for males and...

silicon (si) is considered as one of the beneficial elements for plants that play important roles in plant resistance to stresses. in this experiment, the effects of three levels of silicon (0, 0.85 and 1.7 mm) on the growth and physiological processes of pumpkin were studied in plants inoculated with sphaerotheca fuliginea (250000 conidia ml−1) and non-inoculated plants under hydroponic condit...

a solution culture experiment was conducted to evaluate the salinity tolerance of 15 tomato genotypes in hoagland’s nutrient solution with three levels of nacl (0, 75, and 150 mm). the experiment was conducted in completely randomized design with three replicates. after 30 days of imposition of salt stress, gas exchange parameters including transpiration rate, stomatal conductance, co2 assimila...

this study evaluated the effects of artichoke leaf powder on growth performance and physicochemical properties of japanese quailfrozen meat after 3 monthstorage. a total of 240 japanese quail chicks (1 d old) were raised over a 42-d experimental period. the experiment was performed as a completely randomized design with 4 replicates of 15 quails in each, using a 4 × 2 factorial arrangement with...
