The pharmacological and therapeutic effects of Adriamycin entrapped in positively charged and negatively charged lipo somes were compared with those of free Adriamycin in mice. Liposomes were composed of phosphatidylcholine and choles terol mixed with stearyl amine (positive charge) or phosphatidylserine (negative charge). Positive liposomes with entrapped Adriamycin effectively retarded the in...

Ammonium sulfate fractionated proteins of bitter gourd (Momordica charantia) were precipitated using jack bean extract as a source of concanavalin A. Concanavalin A-bitter gourd peroxidase retained nearly 86% original activity. This complex was entrapped into calcium alginate-pectin gel. Entrapped concanavalin A-peroxidase complex retained 51% original activity. Soluble and immobilized peroxida...

A experiment was lay out in order to evaluate the effects  of different biofertilizers on yield and yield components of maize at the Lorestan provience, Iran. The experiment was a factorial design with three replications. Treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (Nitrokara (N1), O4 (N2), O6 (N3) and control (N4)) and three phosphate biofrtilizers ...

We integrate air bubbles into conductive elastic composite-based stretchable conductors to make them mechanically less stiff and electrically more robust against physical deformations. A surfactant facilitates both the formation and maintenance of air bubbles inside the elastic composites, leading to a simple fabrication of bubble-entrapped stretchable conductors. Based on the unique bubble-ent...

Measuring optical spectra of chromophore molecules entrapped in liposomes can lead to considerable distortion because of absorption flattening. This phenomenon is analyzed theoretically, and it is shown that the deviation from the Beer-Lambert law becomes larger as the molar absorptivity of the chromophore increases and as the number of entrapped molecules becomes larger. The theoretical equati...

A study was undertaken to determine the effects of different biofertilizers on growth and seed barley, Bahman cultivar in Iran. The trial was laid out in RCBD with split plot arrangement having three replications during 2011-12 and at Boroujerd, Iran. Treatments were three nitrogen biofrtilizers (Nitroksin, Nitrokara and Supernitroplass) and three phosphate  biofrtilizers (Phosphate barvar2, Bi...

cover crops cultivation and application of plant growth rhizobacteria are the key factors to enhance agroecosystem health. a field experiment was conducted at the research farm of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran, during growing season of 2009-2010. a split plot arrangement based on a complete randomized block design with three replications was used. cultivation and ...

Peripheral nerve catheters are beneficial for continuous pain relief following surgery or trauma to an extremity. However, spring-loaded peripheral nerve catheters can become uncoiled and entrapped, resulting in difficulty in catheter removal. We present two cases where ultrasound guidance provided significant assistance in the safe removal of entrapped peripheral nerve catheters without neurol...

to study the effect of biofertilizers and manure on yield and yield components of barley (hordeum vulgare) an experiment was conducted at research farm of university of zabol, iran in 2012 cropping season. experimental treatments were arranged in a factorial design based on a randomized complete block design with three replications. treatments were three manure levels (control, 20 ton/h-1, 30 t...
