the nanoparticles of ti-si mixed oxides (ntso) with rutile structure were prepared by sol-gel method in a mixture of alcohol and water as solvent. the solid product was characterized by xrd, ftir, sem, tem, uv, tga and laser raman spectroscopy. the catalytic activity of ntso (5-10 nm) was investigated in the epoxidation of cis stilbene, trans stilbene, and norbornene by using oxidants such as t...

background: magnetic resonance imaging (mri) is a safe modality and useful in characterizing normal and abnormal bone marrow (bm). mri also presents a more global view of bm than biopsy therefore, it may provide a better understanding of hematologic disorders. the purpose of this study was to monitor radiation-induced alterations of bm in acute phase of irradiation (1-10 day after total body ir...

Tobacco is a salt-sensitive glycophyte crop species. In this work effect of silicone (Si) supplementation (1 mM as Na2SiO3) was studied in Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas grown hydroponically in growth chamber under control, low (25 mM) and high (75 mM) NaCl concentration for two weeks. Dry matter production of leaves was depressed by salinity level as low as 25 mM and higher salt concentration...

a pot experiment was carried out to determine the effect of foliage spraying of silicon (si) on growth and ornamental characteristics of calendula grown under salt stress and greenhouse conditions. a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted with 3 levels of si (0, 50 and 100 mg/l) and 3 levels of nacl (0, 100 and 200 mm) with 4 replications. at flowering stage, s...

In this work, the effects of silicon (Si) supplementation were studied in pistachio (Pistacia veraL. cv Ahmadaghaii) plants exposed to high salinity stress. Plants were grown in pots undercontrol and salt (EC=15 dS m-1) conditions without or with Si treatment (0.35 g Na2SiO3 Kg-1soil) under field conditions. Salt stress reduced the plants’ growth significantly in both –Si and+Si plants; however...
