ISSN 0001-5555 The simultaneous occurrence of naevi on opposite sides of the upper and lower eyelids has been termed divided naevus of the eyelid. However, there are few reports of divided naevi on other sites, especially on the glans and prepuce. We report here a case of divided naevus of the ...

1. Using cyclic AMP to stimulate perfused tsetse fly Malpighian tubules bathed in SO42- Ringer frequently causes an immediate but transient peak in transtubular potential (Vt), before stabilisation of Vt at an increased value. 2. These transients were investigated by monitoring the associated changes in cable properties and current­voltage (I/V) relationships. Tubules were perfused and bath...

BACKGROUND The heterocyclic hydrazones constitute an important class of biologically active drug molecules. The hydrazones have also been used as herbicides, insecticides, nematocides, redenticides, and plant growth regulators as well as plasticizers and stabilizers for polymers. The importance of the phenolic quinolyl hydrazones arises from incorporating the quinoline ring with the phenolic co...

We evaluated long-term trends and seasonal variations in the major physical–chemical properties of circum-neutral Slapy reservoir (Vltava, Czech Republic) from 1960 to 2019. Mean annual water temperature increased by 2.1 °C, flow maxima shifted ~ 13 days early April mid-March, onset thermal stratification column spring algal peaks advanced 19 21 days, respectively, due climate warming. Concentr...

Abstract. Secondary inorganic PM2.5 particles are formed from SOx (SO2+SO42-), NOx (NO+NO2), and NH3 emissions, through the formation of either ammonium sulfate ((NH4)2SO4) or nitrate (NH4NO3). EU limits WHO guidelines for levels frequently exceeded in Europe, particular winter months. In addition critical loads eutrophication most European continent. Further reductions emissions other PM precu...

The reaction of FeS2 (pyrite) with gaseous H2O, O2, and H2O/O2 was investigated using horizontal attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (HATR-FTIR). Spectra were interpreted with the aid of hybrid molecular orbital/density functional theory calculations of sulfate-iron hydroxide clusters. Reaction of pyrite in gaseous H2O led primarily to the formation of iron hydro...

Twenty-four-hour samples of PM10 (mass of particles with aerodynamic diameter < or = 10 microm), PM2.5, (mass of particles with aerodynamic diameter < or = 2.5 microm), particle strong acidity (H+), sulfate (SO42-), nitrate (NO3-), ammonia (NH3), nitrous acid (HONO), and sulfur dioxide were collected inside and outside of 281 homes during winter and summer periods. Measurements were also conduc...

Abstract. Wintertime ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) pollution events burden urban mountain basins around the globe. In Salt Lake Valley of Utah in United States, such are often driven by formation persistent cold-air pools (PCAPs) that trap emissions near surface for several consecutive days. As a result, secondary pollutants including fine particulate matter less than 2.5 µm diameter (PM2.5), large...

Surface water samples in Ogosta River, Bulgaria and wastewater at the inlet outlet of WWTP–Montana were tested for traditional parameters ecotoxicological effect. The river Dam surface waters comply with category A1 Directive 75/440/EEC pH, EC, COD, TSS, NO3–, Cl–, SO42–, B, Ba, Co, Cr, Cu, Hg, Mn, Ni, Pb, Se, V Zn; A2 BOD5, NH4+–N Fe; A3 TNb As. average annual concentrations Al, Cr (III), (VI)...
