Multiple indicator dilution studies of the pulmonary circulation were carried out in conscious, resting and exercising, and anesthetized dogs under conditions where there was no pulmonary edema. Labeled red cells, water, and albumin were injected together into the pulmonary artery, and effluent dilution patterns were obtained from the descending thoracic aorta. The product of the mean transit t...

BACKGROUND The role of water hardness as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease has been widely investigated and evaluated as regards regional differences in cardiovascular disease. This study was performed to evaluate the relation between calcium and magnesium in drinking water and diet and risk factors for cardiovascular disease in individuals living in hard and soft water areas with consid...

as drug delivery systems nanoparticulan widely investigated because of many advantages such as smaller size,controlled drug release potential targeting ability, enhancement of therapeutic efficacy and reduction oftoxicity. so, carbon nanotubes have recently received considerable attention as alternative drug delivery carrierin this study we investigate interaction of tamoxifen with open-end of ...

In the present investigation Catharanthus roseus, an important herb used in traditional as well as modern medicine, exposed to water deficit stress and possible changes in chlorophyll contents, photosynthesis rate, transpiration rate, growth parameters as well as total alkaloid content and vincristine and vinblastine levels were studied. Seedlings subjected to 4 different water-regimes. Experim...

abstract to assay the effect of acetylsalicylic acid pretreatment on enhancement of yield and yield components of barley (reihan-03) under water stress condition, an experiment was conducted as a spilt-plot arrangement based on randomized complete block design with four replications at the research field of shahid bahonar university of kerman, iran, in 2012-2013. irrigation condition was arrang...

In recent years many models have been proposed for measuring soil water content (θ) based on the permittivity (ε) value. Permittivity is one of the properties used to determine θ in measurements using the electromagnetic method. This method is widely used due to quite substantial differences in values of ε for air, soil, and water, as it allows the θ value to be measured accurately. The perform...

drought stress is one of the most important problems of agriculture and an important factor of plant product reduction. application of absorbent materials can help usage of sporadic rain fall and cause more maintenance of water storage. in order to study the effect of super absorbent polymer, potassium sulfate and manure under drought condition and favorable irrigation on some traits of foxtail...
