samples of crushed and cooked canola seeds (okapy double zero) were extracted using supercritical carbon dioxide (scco2) at 34 mpa and 40ºc and a commercial organic solvent (aw406). the oil solubility in scco2 was determined and extracted oils were examined with respect to their chlorophyll contents, nonsaponifiable matters, fatty acid composition and iodine value. the yield of scco2 extraction...

malignant pleural effusion is a common complication in certain malignancies. pleurodesis is the best option most of the time. the purpose of this study was to compare the choice of belomycin with povidone-iodine, which is not only determined by the efficacy of the agent but also by its cost, accessibility, safety, ease of administration and the number of administrations to achieve a complete re...

In this project, different nettle plants from north regions of Iran including Tonekabon, Amol and Gorgan were collected. The oil was extracted using soxhlet extraction apparatus and was subjected to series of physical and chemical tests and determinations consisting of refractive index, melting point, smoke point, nonsaponifiable matter, Iodine value, saponification value, peroxide value, totox...

BACKGROUND There is a concern regarding the use of iodinated contrast agents (ICA) for chest and neck computed tomography (CT) to localize metastatases in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). This is because the iodine in ICA can compete with (131)I and interfere with subsequent whole scans or radioactive iodine treatment. The required period for patients to eliminate the excess i...

enzymatic acidolysis of canola oil through caprylic and capric acids was investigated for making structured lipids. lipozyme tl im, an sn-1,3 specific thermomyce slanuginosa lipase, was utilized as the biocatalyst in the batch reactor. reaction conditions were designed according to taguchi’s method considering fatty acid to oil ratio, at three levels (1:1, 2:1, 3:1) , enzyme load (4, 8 and, 12%...

Oils extracted from Blighia sapida fruits are usually consumed without any information on its chemical composition. However the bad quality of oil can be a source toxicity. Thus, aim this study is to investigate physicochemical B. Togolese flora. To reach goal study, mature and immature arils were used for extraction by solvent method using hexane. The parameters including density, acid value, ...

Background: Iodine deficiency and its related disorder such as goiter are endemic in Lorestan province. Following initiation of iodine deficiency control program in 1989, production, distribution and consumption of iodinated salt were begun. This survey was conducted in the framework of national monitoring survey in 2001 to find out the prevalence of goiter and urinary iodine level in order to ...

  Iodine deficiency remains a major health problem in the world, including some parts of Iran. It has been recognized that there is usually a close and inverse relationship between iodine in the soil and water and presence of endemic goiter. Calcium has been suggested as one of goitrogens, though the definite role, extent and mechanism particularly in human have not been studied. Serum protein-...
