in order to study the effect of inter cropping (blend) of three sesame (sesamum indicum l.) cultivars (sabzevar, kashmar, kalat) an experiment was conducted as a factorial based on complete randomized block desing with 3 replications at research farm ferdowsi university in 2009. the experimental treatments were obtained: sole cultivation of sabzevar, kalat, kashmar, and their mixed crops (1. sa...

OBJECTIVE To determine the relationship between anthropometric indices and the age of menarche in female students of Sabzevar, Iran. METHODS The cross-sectional study was conducted in Sabzevar, Iran, from April to September 2010, and involved girls of 11-18 years of age. The required sample size for analysing the relationship between menarche age and Body Mass Index was estimated to be 110 by...

Gravimetric and geologic data show that the reactivation of the Neogene Interandean depression and/or the ~75 65 Ma ophiolite suture into the modern dynamic of the Andes controlled the Gulf of Guayaquil Tumbes basin (GGTB) location and evolution during the past 1.8 1.6 Myr at least. Depending on whether the remobilization occurred along the interandean depression or the ophiolite suture, the GG...

The Chenaillet Ophiolite is one of the best-preserved remnants of the Piemont-Liguria oceanic basin, a branch of the Central Atlantic that opened during the separation of Adria/Africa from Europe. Despite numerous studies of structure, petrology, geochemistry and isotope geochronology, the timing and genesis of various magmatic rocks within the Chenaillet Ophiolite are still controversial. We p...

Microbial abundance and diversity in deep subsurface environments is dependent upon the availability of energy and carbon. However, supplies of oxidants and reductants capable of sustaining life within mafic and ultramafic continental aquifers undergoing low-temperature water-rock reaction are relatively unknown. We conducted an extensive analysis of the geochemistry and microbial communities r...

BACKGROUND AND AIM Cardiovascular disease is the major cause of mortality in hemodialysis patients. Oxidative stress and hyperhomocysteinemia may contribute to an increased risk of CVD. Therefore, we assessed the status of antioxidant and homocysteine-lowering vitamins related to cardiovascular disease in hemodialysis patients at Vasei hospital in Sabzevar. METHODS In this cross-sectional stu...

Age delimitation integrated with aeromagnetometric and aerogammaspectrometric survey advances the understanding of ophiolite evolution in Brasiliano Orogen. We focused on Bossoroca ophiolite, because oceanic crustal mantle rocks contain zircon metasomatic chloritite. A metadiorite a metavolcanoclastic rock were also studied to delimit relationship between island-arc infrastructure superstructur...
