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 ...

background economic consequence analysis is vital for recognizing pipeline comprehensive risk analysis and emergency response planning. objectives the purpose of this study was to estimate economic loss due to fire and explosion in petrochemical feed and product pipelines. materials and methods the present study which performed on 47 pipelines of a petrochemical special zone, pertinent pipeline...

cyanobacteria are well known for their production of a multitude of highly toxic substances . the genus stigomena is regarded as good candidates for producing biologically active secondary metabolites, which are highly toxic to humans and other animals. the carcass of a dog was found at the shore of lake ali-abad, iran. biomass from the discovery site appeared to be of cyanobacterial nature. we...

background: biomonitoring provides a useful tool to estimate the genetic risk from exposure to genotoxic agents. the aim of this study was to assess the potential cytogenetic damage associated with occupational exposure to hexavalent chromium by using micronuclei (mn) as a biomarker. methods: this was a cross-sectional study and all participants were males. both the exposed and control individu...

concrete bridge deck damage detection by measurement and monitoring variables related to vibration signatures is one of the main tasks of any bridge health monitoring system (bhms). generally damage puts some detectable/discoverable signs in the parameters of bridge vibration behavior. however, differences between frequency and mode shape before and after damage are not remarkable as vibration ...

Crocin, the main constituent of saffron (Crocus sativus L.), is a natural carotenoid which is known for its antioxidant activity. Liver as the organ that metabolizes many chemicals is one of the first position that is at risk of environmental pollutants. It is clear that compounds that exhibit antioxidant properties, scavenging of free radicals and inhibition of lipid peroxidation are expected ...

Side effects of ciprofloxacin (CPFX), a widely used broad spectrum antibiotic with fluoroquinolone core, have been reported in different organs. In the present study we sought to elucidate the impact of ciprofloxacin on sperm chromatin integrity and sperm DNA damage using Aniline Blue and Acridine Orange technique, respectively. The fertility potential in male mice was also evaluated. NMRI male...

butachlor (n-(butoxymethyl)-2-chloro-n-2, 6-diethylacetanillide) is widely used chloroacetanilide herbicide in asian region, especially in the north of iran. several studies have been reported on toxicity of butachlor, but little information is accessible on dna damaging potential. thus, the present study was undertaken to investigate of dna damage by butachlor in cyprinuscarpio(pisces: cyprini...
