some heavy metals are dangerous to health and there is rising concern about the quality of foodstuffs in some parts of the world. fish, particularly tuna fish, can concentrate huge quantities of several metals from water and they even play a significant role in human nourishment. objectives: in this study, the concentrations of mercury and four trace metals in five brands of canned tuna samples...

toxic heavy metals, such as lead (pb) and cadmium (cd) are widely used in industry and their accumulation in the living tissues may cause serious health problems and ecological hazards. twenty four moderately halophilic bacteria isolated from saline environments of iran were used to study their ability to bioremediation of lead and cadmium. amongst them, a gram-negative rod shaped bacterium, de...

In order to study the ecological water environment in Erhai Lake, different monitoring sections were set to research the change of hydrodynamics and water quality. According to the measured data, MIKE21 Ecolab, the water quality simulation software developed by DHI, is applied to simulate the water quality in Erhai Lake. The hydrodynamics model coupled with water quality is established by MIKE2...

Smart Distribution Logistik, a german research project, wants to extend the usage of battery electric vehicle (BEV) in inner-city logitics. This goes hand in hand with the desire of german population and politics for less CO2 emmision and noise of the traffic. BEV’s have a number of disadvantages like higher acquisition cost than vehicles with combustion engine, limited driving ranges and high ...

Purpose: Nasal cavity may contain wide variety of masses within, that differs this organ from the rest of the body. Primary nasal cavity masses consist of 0.2% 0.8% of all malignancies. This paper aims to emphasize the main characteristics of different nasal cavity masses on cross-sectional images which may cause symptoms varying from simple nasal obstruction to metastatic invasion. We tried to...

An atomic decomposition is considered in Banach space.  A method for constructing an atomic decomposition of Banach  space, starting with atomic decomposition of  subspaces  is presented. Some relations between them are established. The proposed method is used in the  study  of the  frame  properties of systems of eigenfunctions and associated functions of discontinuous differential operators.
