background : immunogenicity of streptokinase (stk), as a thrombolytic drug, have limited its clinical use. elimination of the amino acid residues that are responsible for immunogenicity while don’t affect the bioactivity of stk is worthy. recently, we modified the stk through elimination of 42 amino acids from its’ c-terminal and assessed its bioactivity in vitro . objective : in this study, bi...

we consider the problem of continuous dynamic berth allocation to containerships in a tidal seaport. in some container ports, low water depth in coastal area causes many restrictions on providing vessel's services. therefore, berth allocation planning for relatively large vessels with high draft is subject to tidal conditions when the vessels are in the access channel as from anchorage are...

purpose: evaluation of humoral and cellular immune responses of naturally infected dogs against type i (rcpb) (recombinant cycsteine proteinase b), and ii (rcpa) (recombinant cycsteine proteinase a) recombinant cysteine proteinases and c-terminal extension (cte) of leishmania infantum (l. infantum). materials and methods: in this study, fourteen infected dogs (7 with symptoms, 7 asymptomatics)...

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor is an uncommon benign neoplasm and its presentation in small bowel is rare. Due to clinical manifestation, laboratory data and radiologic results, there is an increased risk of over diagnosis as malignant tumors particularly malignant lymphoma in childhood therefore may be resulting in wrong therapeutic approach. However pathologic findings could be demonstrat...

the main goal of this study was to evaluate differences in stress distribution relevant to the number of implants under an anterior bridge when combined with a removable partial denture in the posterior region.four three-dimensional finite element models (3d fem) were designed from a mandible containing an implant-supported bridge extending between canines, and a bilateral distal extension remo...

to study the tolerance of genotypes under terminal drought stress, 20 promising winter and facultative bread wheat genotypes were evaluated at karadj, ardebil, arak and hamedan agricultural research stations during 2001-02 cropping season. the experimental design in all the locations was randomized complete block of three replications. grain yield (yld), harvest index (hi), grain number per spi...

Some prior media research has questioned the ability of electronic media to support relationships. This could be a serious impediment to distributed work. However other research indicates that we have few close personal relationships in our ltfe outside work. This study describes a series of questionnaires in which we extended research on relational depth to work. We3nd, as expected, that,jew w...
