fluorescence chemical sensors for the highly sensitive and selective determination of pb2+ , hg2+, co2+ and fe3+ ions in aqueous solutions are described. the ion sensing system was prepared by incorporating lipophilic ligand (l) as a neutral ion-selective fluoroionophore in the plasticized pvc membrane containing sodium tetraphenylborate or potasium tetrakis (p-chlorophenyl) borate as a liphoph...

abstract this study investigated the predictability of variables from a motivational framework as well as individuals qualities to predict three non-linguistic outcomes of language learning. gardners socio-educational model with its measures has been used in the current study. individual qualities presented in this study include (1) age, (2) gender, and (3) language learning experience. the...

1.1 introduction “i see translation as the attempt to produce a text so transparent that it does not seem to be translated. a good translation is like a pane of glass. you only notice that it’s there when there are little imperfections- scratches, bubbles. ideally, there shouldn’t be any. it should never call attention to itself.” “norman shapiro” (venuti, 1995:1) edward fitzgerald is the br...

In order to study the relationship between grain yield and some of agronomic traits under drought stress condition, an experiment with 305 bread wheat inbred lines derived from a cross between Roshan × Falat and 25 drought tolerant and susceptible varieties along with 4 check varieties (Roshan, Falat, Mahdavi and Shahpasand) was conducted in augmented complete block design, at Research Field of...

this research was conducted to examine the effect of a concurrent training on rest level of leptin of plasma and some hormonal factors in non-athlete subjects. the research population included non-athlete men who didn’t participate in any organized sport activities. 30 men were chosen voluntarily among the above-mentioned population and were divided into 2 groups: experimental (15 subjects) an...

In order to study the effect of terminal drought stress on yield and yield components and some physiological traits of wheat genotypes, a field experiment was conducted at the Research Farm of Agricultural College of Shiraz University during 2010-11 growing season in a split plot arrangement based on randomized complete block design with three replications. Main plots were assigned to irrigatio...

nowadays enhancing critical thinking in learners is considered one of the foreign language teachers’ tasks due to its high position in foreign language classrooms. when it comes to selecting materials for language classrooms, there are obviously some criteria that teachers should apply. the present study aimed at a critical thinking based analysis of ten picture story books and ten folktales th...

we have two part in this thesis, at first: the interaction of native calf thymus dna (ct-dna) with two anthraquinones including quinizarin (1,4- dihydroxy anthraquinone) and danthron (1,8- dihydroxy anthraquinone) in a mixture of 0.04 m brittone-robinson buffer and 50% of ethanol were studied at physiological ph by uv-vis absorption, florescence, circular dichroism spectroscopic methods, viscos...

Development of cultivars better adapted to drought stress in the arid and semi arid climatic conditions is considered as a major breeding objective. Grain quality is a trait with physico-chemical complexity depending primarily on genotype, is strongly affected by environmental factors and their interactions. Effect of terminal drought stress on quality traits of 18 triticale lines, comprising o...
