There are various types of lasers available for hair reduction, but the choice of an ideal laser for ethnic skin has its own limitations. The choice of the right laser for the right skin type is very important. Before starting with the laser therapy, it is important to assess the skin type, the fluence, the pulse duration and the type of laser to be used.

intra-specific variations in apex development of two salt-tolerant cultivars (cross rowshan 11 (cr) and kharchia-65) and one salt-sensitive cultivar (ghods) of spring wheat (triticum aestivum l.) grown in sand culture at selected levels of salinity (0, 100, 200, and 300 mol m-3 nacl and cacl2 in 5:1 molar ratio) were studied. to determine the apex lengths and the number of spikelet primordi...

in order to formulate an efficient and durable mucoadhesive drug delivery system, careful consideration of formulation-related parameters is critical. this study was conducted to investigate the effect of the presence of various types and concentrations of surfactants within or outside carbopol 934 (c934) as well as hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose (hpmc) solid compacts, on their duration of mucoa...

background: oral contraceptive pills are among the most popular contraceptive methods, but the fear of cancer and cardiovascular disease overshadows its continuous use among women. this study aimed to define the association between consumption patterns of combined oral contraceptives among women with breast cancer. materials and methods: this is an analytical case–control study conducted on 175...

Oriental hybrid lily “Arabian Red” mother scales were stored in moist cocopeat and perlite (1:1) for 3 or 5 months at 25 ̊C. The numbers of scale bulblets per mother scale were nearly identical in two durations. Increasing storage duration promoted the growth of roots (number and length) and No. scales per scale bulblets. And, diameters of scale bulblets were more in longer storage duration (5 m...

The thermal requirements for development of Dermanyssus gallinae were studied under laboratory conditions at 15, 20, 25, 30 and 35 degrees C, a 12h photoperiod and 60-85% RH. The thermal requirements for D. gallinae were as follows. Preoviposition: base temperature 3.4 degrees C, thermal constant (k) 562.85 degree-hours, determination coefficient (R(2)) 0.59, regression equation: Y= -0.006035 +...
