Background: Organophosphorus pesticides are widely used in agriculture, homes, gardens, and veterinary practices. Extensive application of pesticides in agriculture often results in residues of these compounds being absorbed into the foods, including wheat. The aim of this study was to evaluate the residue levels of 20 organophosphorus pesticides in wheat samples collected from different region...

BACKGROUND The wide use of pesticides raises concerns on the health risks associated with pesticide exposure. For developing countries, like Thailand, pesticide monitoring program (in vegetables and fruits) and also the maximum residue limits (MRL) regulation have not been entirely implemented. The MRL is a product limit, not a safety limit. The MRL is the maximum concentration of a pesticide r...

Milk that is necessary at every period of human life, a good source for macro and micro food elements besides C vitamin iron. Hovewer, most milk products may contaminate to heavy metal instruments equipmant used in production during lactation period. The aim this study was detect presence lead, cadmium, mercury, arsenic heat treated drinking offered sale the market. A total 100 UHT (n= 90) past...

The fungicide carbendazim (CBZ) is not approved for agricultural uses in some countries but still used by many farmers due to its effectiveness. For this reason, previous work of the same authors, they developed a competitive enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) using rabbit polyclonal antibodies detect CBZ. This study aimed validate in-house ELISA after extraction with methanol CBZ analysis tomato sampl...

tetracyclines (tcs) are broad-spectrum antibiotics that are used widely in veterinary medicine. the present study was carried out to trace the residues of oxytetracycline (otc) and tetracycline (tc) in pasteurized milk that is marketed in tehran with the use of a high performance liquid chromatography (hplc). ninety milk samples were collected during five sequential days from the products of si...

A series of hydrogels as biosorbents to remove heavy metal ions (Pb2+, Cu2+, and Cd2+) were prepared using Radix Isatidis residues material grafted with acrylic acid acrylamide. The surfaces residue/acrylic acid-co-acrylamide (RIR/AA-co-AM), residue/polyacrylamide (RIR/PAM3), residue/polyacrylic (RIR/PAA4) have a sponge-like, three-dimensional, highly microporous structure. all considerable swe...

We independently assign a non-negative value, as a capacity for the quantity of flows per unit time, with a distribution F to each edge on the Zd lattice. We consider the maximum flows through the edges of two disjoint sets, that is from a source to a sink, in a large cube. In this paper, we show that the ratio of the maximum flow and the size of source is asymptotic to a constant. This constan...

We establish sufficient criteria for the existence of a limit cycle in the Liénard system x[over ̇]=y-ɛF(x),y[over ̇]=-x, where F(x) is odd. In their simplest form the criteria lead to the result that, for all finite nonzero ɛ, the amplitude of the limit cycle is less than ρ and 0≤a≤ρ≤u, where F(a)=0 and ∫(0)(u)F(x)dx=0. We take the van der Pol oscillator as a specific example and establish that ...
