Introduction: Today, have been approved scientifically relationship between presence of asbestos fibers in the human respiratory area and malignant diseases such as lung advanced fibrosis (Asbestosis), gastrointestinal, lung and Laryngeal cancers. The aim of this study was the determination of asbestos fibers concentration in Yazd city’s air in the summer of 2015. Materials and Methods: ...

The performance of asphaltic pavements during their service life is highly dependent on the mechanical properties of the asphaltic layers. Therefore, in order to extend their service life, scientists and engineers are constantly trying to improve the mechanical properties of the asphaltic mixtures. One common method of improving the performance of asphaltic mixtures is using different types of ...

Waste fibers produced from manufacturing processes are a byproduct commonly deposited in storing yards and/or landfills and thus results in many serious environmental problems in Iran. If these waste materials could be advantageously put to practical use in any application, it would reduce the burden on the environment and landfills. This paper compares the performance of the stone matrix aspha...

The induction and decay of pacing-induced automaticity were studied in 15 sheep Purkinje fiber preparations superfused with modified Tyrode's solution containing norepinephrine, 2.5 x 10(-7) M. All preparations were quiescent prior to pacing. Spontaneous automaticity could be induced in each preparation provided a sufficient number of pacing stimuli were applied at a fast enough rate. Once the ...

rabbitfish is economically valuable teleost species which lives in shallow coastalwaters. two species of rabbit fish have been recognized in southern sea of iran (persiangulf) as namely siganus sutor and siganus javus. in the current study, in order toinvestigate the histology of the annular ligament of the s. javus’ eye, the prepared sectionsof the eyes of twelve healthy specimens were studied...

the usage of ceramic composites in order to improve the workability and properties of clay already has past a long history behind. in spite of the fact that clay by its own is a flexible and appropriate material for sculpting and ceramic making, it also carries some problems, flaws and imperfections (such as cracking, heaviness and etc.) which make it somehow troublesome to work with. from the ...

introduction: stimulation of peptidergic fibers activates microglia in the dorsal horn. microglia activation causes fractalkine (fkn) release, a neuron-glia signal, which enhances pain. the transient vanilloid receptor 1 (trpv1) mediates the release of neuropeptides, which can subsequently activate glia. trpv1 and trpv2 are generally expressed on c and aδ fibers, respectively. expression of bot...

background: mediodorsal (md) thalamic nucleus, which is considered to take place between extra pyramidal and limbic feedback circuit, receives projective fibers from ventrolateral neurons of reticular part of substantia nigra (snr). in order to better understand the influence and chemical reaction of these fibers upon md nucleus, the morphology and synaptology of them were examined in the prese...
