Preparation of Tissue-Studies were performed on the isolated urinary bladder of the toad, Bujo marinus. Animals were pithed and the two halves of the bladder rapidly removed through a ventral incision. The tissue was rinsed in Ringer’s solution before use. For the study of the oxygen consumption of various toad tissues, small intestine, stomach, heart, ventral abdominal skin, and skeletal muscl...

CONTEXT Sodium bicarbonate has been suggested as a possible strategy for prevention of contrast medium-induced nephropathy, a common cause of renal failure associated with prolonged hospitalization, increased health care costs, and substantial morbidity and mortality. OBJECTIVE To determine if sodium bicarbonate is superior to sodium chloride for preventing contrast medium-induced nephropathy...

One of the factors that affect leaching process a mineral source is characteristics raw materials. Not all phases can be leached directly and completely. Thus, some minerals require special treatment so take place optimally. This study will focus on studying effect additive compounds addition, i.e. hydrogen peroxide sodium chloride, in spent catalyst using sulfuric acid solution. The was carrie...

The effects of salinity and supplied calcium chloride on growth and leaf ions concentration of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) were investigated in Gorgan, Iran. A factorial experiment was conducted based on RCBD with four NaCl levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mM) and four CaCl2 levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg L-1). Data of growth, yield and leaf’s Ca, K, and Na content were subjected to analyze ...

In the present study, we evaluated the viability of non-enveloped viruses, minute virus of mice (MVM) and coxsackievirus B4 (CVB4), and enveloped-viruses, influenza A virus (H1N1) and herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1), on surfaces. We also investigated the impact of the initial concentration of proteins and sodium chloride on the persistence of infectious CVB4 on surfaces. Viral suspensions (...

sulforaphane is a strong anticarsenogen compound which is produced in broccoli. it seems salt stress improves sulforaphane production via systemic acquired resistance. to obtain suitable salt concentration and for having more content of sulforaphane with controlling germination percentage, nacl in 5 levels 0, 50, 100, 150, 200 mm (0, 4.53, 9.125, 13.68, 18.25 ds/m ) and salicylic acid in 3 leve...

to investigate the influence of salinity and calcium (ca) on some properties of plantago ovata, a pot factorialexperiment based on randomized complete block design with three replicates was conducted in jiroft, south of kermanprovince, iran. three salinity levels of 0, 100 and 200 mm nacl and ca levels of 0, 5 and 10 mm calcium nitrate wereapplied as the first and second factors, respectively. ...

a major portion of the iranian fig (ficus carica) industry is located in high-salinity regions, and salinity is an important limiting factor in the production of this fruit. the present study was conducted to investigate the changes of leaf antioxidant-enzyme activity, proline and total protein content in two fig cultivars with two leaf shapes: ‘anjir sabz’ with lobate and palmate leaves, and ‘...

the study of the relationships of the plant species with the soil in a salty ecosystem would play a significant role in the ecologic programming and management of these inhabitants. the saline and alkaline rangelands of the golestan province are areas that contain salty soil with high underground crusts. the areas are covered by halophyte plants such as frankenia hirsuta. this species is a pere...
