the effects of drought stress and exogenous abscisic acid on the expression of ribulose-1, 5-bisphosphate carboxyiase/oxygenase activase (rubisco activase) were examined in wheat (triticum aestivuml.). in response to water stress and abscisic acid, both the levels of endogenous abscisic acid and rubiscoactivase increased in the leaves. immunoblot analysis showed that both drought stress and abs...

Anxiety is one of the prevalent mental health disorders. Stressors by changes in physiology can increase risk of physical diseases. High levels of cortisol have many negative effects on health. This study aimed to determine Anxiety symptoms prevalence and its relationships with plasma cortisol level. This study was a descriptive- analytical cross-sectional that was conducted on 100 nursing stud...

o bjective : increased levels of oxidative stress markers in periodontitis have been reported by recent studies. malondialdehyde (mda) and superoxide dismutase (sod) are both in- creased during oxidative stress. the aim of this study was to detect and measure the level of oxidative stress markers in peri-implant crevicular fluid (picf). their correlation with peri-implant clinical parameters wa...

in order to study the effect of bio-fertilizers  in decrease the effects of water stress on yield, yield components and oil percentage of goldasht spring safflower cultivars (carthamus tinctorius l.), an experiment on split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications was carried out  in 2012 at the agricultural research station of islamic azad university of roudehen branc...

to investigate the saturation induced collapse deformation behavior of rockfill material, a set of large-scale triaxial tests were conducted in saturated and dry-saturated conditions. specimens were tested under various confining pressures. for dry-saturated tests, specimens were sheared in various stress levels. results of all dry saturated tests indicate a sudden reduction in the specimen vol...

‎in this paper‎, ‎we have investigated the chaotic behavior of thermal convection in couple stress liquid saturated porous layer subject to gravity‎, ‎heated from below and cooled from above‎, ‎based on theory of dynamical system‎. ‎a low dimensional lorenz‎- ‎like model is obtained by using galerkin-truncation approximation‎. ‎we found that there is proportional relation between scaled couple ...

the main objective was to find association between basal cortisol and neighborhood-level stress. systematic searches, including electronic and hand searches, were conducted. the most recent date of the search was july 26, 2013. primary observational studies included if they considered stress related outcomes in the neighborhood context. using the endnote x7 advanced search option; the authors e...
