objective: different cryoprotectants are used for cryopreservation of ovarian tissue in patients at risk of infertility. ethylene glycol (eg), dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso) and propanediol (proh) have been chosen as the basic permeable cryoprotectants due to their decreased glass-formation characteristics compared to other cryoprotectants. in the present study, the effects of two different vitrific...

The determinants of sickle red blood cell (RBC) life span have not been well-defined but may include both intrinsic factors (eg, the tendency to sickle) and extrinsic factors (eg, the capacity of the reticuloendothelial system to remove defective RBCs). Fetal hemoglobin (HbF) is heterogeneously distributed among sickle RBCs; F cells contain 20% to 25% HbF, whereas the remainder have no detectab...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use of glass capillary micropipette (GCM) as a vessel forvitrification of bovine oocytes. Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were obtained from slaughter-house andwashed 5 to 6 times in the washing medium (TCM-199 + 20% FBS) and randomly assigned to treatment andcontrol group. In the first step of vitrification, COCs were exposed to first vitrification...

abstract: in this study, al 2 o 3 /eg and tio 2 /eg nanofluids as coolants have been used in the double-tube heat exchanger. the hot solvent inlet heat exchanger must be cooled down with a specified amount. we can use nanofluids as coolants in the heat exchanger for optimization of the heat transfer area. therefore, the efficacy of nanofluids as coolants is verified. furthermore, flow rate of c...

Rare earth elements (REEs) are strategically critical in the manufacture of advanced materials. Red mud and end-of-life NdFeB magnets can be good secondary sources for REEs, but recovery is difficult due to high iron oxide content small amount REEs. Oxide mixtures whose composition Fe, Nd, Ga was similar that red were employed experiments. In this study, a relatively inexpensive non-aqueous sys...

biological reactions of the two-spotted spider mite (tss), tetranychus urticae, were studied on nine cultivars of tomatoes. the spider mites were reared on leaf discs, taken from fruiting stages of the host plants. the effects of feeding on some tomato cultivars, namely: long shelf life, meran (greenhouse cultivars), redclude, western red, imperial, yazd, mazandaran, west azarbaijan and khorasa...

background:poisoning with ethylene glycol (eg) can be fatal even if appropriate treatments are delivered. eg poisoning usually causes central nervous system depression, cardiovascular dysfunction, metabolic acidosis and acute renal failure (arf). case report:a 33-year-old man was referred to the emergency department with reduced consciousness and dyspnea of four-hour duration due to unknown rea...
