recognition of soil water infiltration process is essential for improving irrigation efficiency, decreasing water losses and management of surface runoff. the aim of this research was to evaluate temporal variation of the kostiakove-louise infiltration coefficient parameters during a corn growing season. in this research, 16 irrigation events for 8 large scale furrow experiments were analyzed b...

a rapid and reproducible method is described that employs solid phase extraction (spe) using dichloromethane, followed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometry for the determination of toxic toluene, xylene and cumene (txc) from different lake water of dhaka mega city of bangladesh. the method was applied to detect and quantify txc in water samples collected from surface and 30 cm depth of water....

Hypertonic solutions play an important role in the treatment of tissue edema. Following the induction of experimental vasogenic brain edema by occlusion of the common carotid arteries in eight rabbits, the effect of hypertonic lactated Ringer's solution (subjects), vs. isotonic lactated Ringer's solution (control), was studied on blood pressure, electrolyte (sodium, potassium, and calcium) ...

the aim of this study was to formulate and evaluate microencapsulated controlled release preparations of a highly water/soluble drug, salbutamol sulphate by (water in oil) in oil emulsion technique using ethyl cellulose as the retardant material. various processing and formulation parameters such as drug/polymer ratio, stirring speed, volume of processing medium were optimized to maximize the e...

the price of water in agriculture plays an important role in the water allocation management. therefore, the optimum strategies of cropping pattern could be designed when water price analysis are considered in a predetermined economic framework. in the present study, a programming model was developed using the genetic algorithm for optimal water allocation in the eastern north of khuzestan prov...

awareness of the effects of water deficit on quality and quantity yield of orange is essential for product managing at water shortage conditions. in this regard, present study was conducted in an orange garden of babol area in 2011 in a completely randomized design with 5 treatments and 5 replications. experiment treatments included full irrigation (fi), regulated deficit irrigation (rdi) and p...

high yield of top quality crop is a prerequisite for profitable production of greenhouse produced cucumber. on the other hand, because of water deficit in iran it is necessary to economize in this scarce and valuable input. an experiment was carried out in the experimental greenhouse of university college of agriculture and natural resources, university of tehran to optimize water use in soil c...

background: the dispersed phase volume fraction plays key role in oil-in-water emulsion stability by different mechanisms like partial flocculation, depletion flocculation and bridging flocculation. since the mentioned mechanism is affected by emulsifier concentration presented in system, the major aim of this study was to investigate the effect of dispersed phase volume fraction on physical st...
