objective(s): hyperthermia is one of the most common environmental stressors that affect multi-biological systems in the body including the central nervous system as well as the hematopoietic organs. the objective of the present study was to investigate the protective role of ethanolic extract of propolis (eep) on some selective stress markers, hematological, biochemical, and histopathological ...

in this study, the response is derived, high-energy material 1-(4-nitrophenyl)-1h-tetrazole (npht) with boron nitridenano-cages in different conditions of temperature, density functional theory methods were studied. for this purpose, the material on both sides were geometrically optimized, then the calculation of the thermodynamic parameters were performed on all of them. the amount of δh, δs a...

in this study, al/gr composites with 5,10,15,20 weight percent of graphite were produced by in-situ powder metallurgy method. the produced powder mixtures were consolidated and sintered at optimum conditions. the resultant composites were solution treated at 495?c and aged at 170?c. the influence of graphite content on the bending strength of composites was studied. the distribution of graphite...

to study the response of pinto-bean yield and yield components in intercropping with maize and naked-pumpkin under weed competition, two similar experiments were conducted in rasht and roudsar separately each in a randomized complete block design with 3 replications on factorial arrangements experiment in 2013. the treatments of first factor consisted of  pinto bean (100 and 75%) sole cropping,...
