Microbial community samples were collected from the anoxic zone of the Cariaco Basin at depths of 320, 500, and 1,310 m on a November 1996 cruise and were used to construct 16S ribosomal DNA libraries. Of 60 nonchimeric sequences in the 320-m library, 56 belonged to the epsilon subdivision of the Proteobacteria (epsilon-Proteobacteria) and 53 were closely related to ectosymbionts of Rimicaris e...

We tend to perceive and emphasize the transition from Late Antiquity Early Middle Ages, especially in North Africa, through ruptures changes. This collection of papers highlights, alongside major changes transformations that affected entire Mediterranean region, longer-term processes developments Africa between AD 500 1000. In this time frame, region is shaped by Vandal, Byzantine Arab conquest...

Introduction: Due to side effects of antiinflammatory drugs such as dexamethasone and indomethacin, there is a less tendency to use them. On the other hand, the use of medicinal plants has been common in the treatment of inflammation since ancient times and also, using of the plants is increasing. Present research investigated the antiinflammatory effect of the hydroalcoholic extract of capitol...

this experiment was carried out to investigate the effect of plant density on growth and seed yield of wheat (kodasht cultivar) under saline soils and rainfed condition inanbarolum region of golestan province in 2008-09. an experiment was conducted in three fields with different salinities (6.73, 9.34 and 11.63 ds m-1) based on randomized complete blocks design. treatments were four plant densi...

For the experimental conditions of the KASCADE-Grande experiment, the density of charged particles of large air showers (EAS) at the distance of about 500 m from the shower core S(500) has been shown by detailed simulation studies to be an approximate energy estimator, being nearly independent of the mass of the primary particle. This report presents some first experimentally observed features ...

Coaches, sport scientists and researchers assess rowing performance on-water and on a variety of ergometers. Ergometers are frequently used because of the easier assessment environment. However, there is limited information on the ability of rowers to reproduce mean power or time-trial time when using different rowing ergometers (Concept II and RowPerfect) or completing tests over different dis...
