ABSTRACT. In this work, an activated carbon composite made with magnesium oxide nanoparticles (MgONP-AC) was effectively utilized for methyl orange (MO) adsorption. The effect of pH (6-10), mass MgONP-AC (0.1-0.3 g/L), initial MO concentration (10-30 mg/L), and temperature (283-323 K) on removal investigated using a central rotatable experimental design based the response surface technique (RSM...

objective(s): analgesic effects of oxytocin and it's the other physiological effects were well-known. the aim of present study was determination of nitric oxide role on analgesic effects of oxytocin in mice. materials and methods: 216 male albino mice were divided randomly into two experimental groups, tail flick and formalin test. each experimental group consists of three main groups incl...

Male florets and pistillate flowers of cvs.Chandler and Hartley of Persian walnut were cultured on modified Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) supplemented with 0.05 mg l-1 biotin, 0.5 mg l-1 folic acid, 100 mg l-1 glutamine and different concentrations of Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and Kinetin (KIN) and for pistillate flowers culture, these concentrations were 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 mg l-1). After...

This article highlights the composition of wastewater from poultry farms and their suitability for irrigation agricultural crops. It has been established that chemical demand is 480–850 mg О 2 /l, which indicates a high level contamination with organic products. Coarse finely dispersed substances vary within 430–720 mg/l, biochemical oxygen consumption on fifth day (BOD5) 0.39–0.74 g at time ma...

OBJECTIVES To compare the pharmacodynamic effects of a pharmacokinetically enhanced formulation of amoxicillin 2000 mg twice daily, with amoxicillin 875 mg twice daily, 875 mg three times daily and 500 mg three times daily against Streptococcus pneumoniae with different susceptibility to amoxicillin in an in vitro kinetic model. METHODS Strains of S. pneumoniae with amoxicillin MICs of 1, 2, ...

BACKGROUND Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus is a leading cause of death in patients undergoing hemodialysis. However, controversy exists about the optimal dose of vancomycin that will yield the recommended pre-hemodialysis serum concentration of 15-20 mg/L. OBJECTIVE To develop a data-driven model to optimize the accuracy of maintenance dosing of vancomycin for patients undergoing ...

BACKGROUND This pilot trial was designed to determine if an optimal dose of Technosphere(®) insulin (TI) inhalation powder (MannKind Corp., Valencia, CA) could be used regardless of variation in meal carbohydrate (CHO) content. SUBJECTS AND METHODS In total, eight subjects (seven men, one woman) with type 2 diabetes were enrolled. Subjects underwent dose optimization meal challenge (MC) visit...
