The activity concentrations of 226Ra, 232Th, 40K and 137Cs in water and sediment samples from hot springs of Mahallat and  soil samples from their neighboring environs  have been determined using two high resolution high purity germanium (HPGe) detectors with relative efficiencies 38.5% and 55%. The activity concentrations of 226Ra, 23...

Introduction: Although travertine is now widely used as a building material, the effects of its radiological hazards to public health should be a matter of concern. Therefore, this study aimed to determine its radiological parameters with regard to human health. Material and Methods: In this research 10 travertine samples were collected ...

The research aimed to produce new genotypes by hybridization. It was conducted in the Ornamental Plants Research Center of Mahallat from 2016 to 2018. Four varieties of gladiolus including Amsterdam, White Prosperity, Advance Red and Rose Supreme were chosen for hybridization. The progenies were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The highest heritability in...

to study the effect of sucrose and calcium chloride on the quality and longevity of cut flower of rose cv. varlon, this experiment was conducted at the faculty of agriculture, zanjan university, zanjan, iran, in 2007. cut flowers were received from mahallat ornamental plants and flowers research station. experimental factors included: sucrose at four levels (0, 40, 80 and 100 mg/l) and calcium ...

introduction natural and artificial radionuclides are the main sources of human radiation exposure. these radionuclides, which are present in the environment, can be dissolved into water. evidence suggests that radionuclides being entered the human body through drinking or hot spring water can be harmful for human health. materials and methods in this study,10 samples were collected from ground...
