Two methods of preparing sensitivity disks were compared for their effect on disk stability at 25 and 37 C. One method consisted of applying a solution of the antibiotic to blank disks by the conventional procedure; the second method consisted of applying the antibiotic to the disks as a suspension of crystals. Of the four beta-lactam antibiotics that were studied, disks made with suspended cry...

background polyvinyl alcohol (pva) is one of the well-known polymers, which has been used in numerous biomedical applications because of its good biocompatibility. objectives due to problems made by the therapeutics already used for leishmaniasis, the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of pva containing artemether in treating cutaneous leishmaniasis in balb/c mice. materials and metho...

in this paper, a numerical scheme for solving singular initial/boundary value problems presented.by applying the reproducing kernel hilbert space method (rkhsm) for solving these problems,this method obtained to approximated solution. numerical examples are given to demonstrate theaccuracy of the present method. the result obtained by the method and the exact solution are foundto be in good agr...

The corneal-protective effects of an artificial tear containing sodium hyaluronate (SH) and castor oil (CO) were evaluated on a porcine short-term dry eye model. Fresh porcine eyes with an intact cornea were treated with an artificial tear of saline, SH solution (0.1%, 0.5% or 1%), CO solution (0.5%, 1% or 5%) or a mixture solution containing 0.5% SH and 1% CO and then desiccated for 60, 90 or ...

This experiment was carried out to explore the relationship between the absorbance and concentration of colored solutions. After determining the λmax was 635 nm for CuSO4, the absorbance of six solutions of CuSO4, ranging from 0.00 to 0.50 M, was found using a colorimeter. Graphical analysis revealed that the relationship between absorbance and concentration was directly proportional with a mol...

An extractive spectrophotometric method is described for the assay of sitagliptin phosphate in bulk drug and in tablets. Sitagliptin phosphatewas extracted as an ion-pair complex from the solution containing Eriochrome black T and 0.1N HCl into chloroform and the absorbance of the complex was measured at 500nm.The working conditions of the method were investigated and optimized. Beer’s law plot...

It has been suggested that L-type Ca(2+) channels play an important role in cell swelling-induced vasoconstriction. However, there is no direct evidence that Ca(2+) channels in vascular smooth muscle are modulated by cell swelling. We tested the hypothesis that L-type Ca(2+) channels in rabbit portal vein myocytes are modulated by hypotonic cell swelling via protein kinase activation. Ba(2+) cu...

Objective: To develop silver nanoparticles stabilized in the hydroalcoholic extract of Mentha Piperita L. for adjuvant treatment depression. Methodology: In synthesis a solution, 25 mL nitrate (1.0 mmol/L) and 75 sodium borohydride (2.0 were used. These two substances mixed at room temperature under magnetic stirring. Another solution used 100 until boiling was reached 5 citrate (1%) added The ...

The effects of salinity and supplied calcium chloride on growth and leaf ions concentration of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) were investigated in Gorgan, Iran. A factorial experiment was conducted based on RCBD with four NaCl levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mM) and four CaCl2 levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg L-1). Data of growth, yield and leaf’s Ca, K, and Na content were subjected to analyze ...

Chromite ore processing residue (COPR), derived from the so-called high lime processing of chromite ore, contains high levels of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) and has a pH between 11 and 12. Ferrous sulfate, which is used for remediation of Cr(VI) contamination in wastewater and soils via reduction to Cr(III) and subsequent precipitation of iron(III)/chromium(III) hydroxide, has also been proposed for rem...
