regarding increasing rate of drug resistance among microbial pathogens, a global search to find new antimicrobial agents from natural compounds with fewer side effects has been considered by many researchers worldwide. bioactive compounds with good antimicrobial activity have been isolated from different algae and cyanobacteria. the current study was performed to determine antimicrobial potenti...

it has been proved that natural frequencies are stationary at the natural modes. also it has been shown that at the first mode it is a minimum and for systems with finite number of degrees of freedom the highest frequency is maximum (reference 1 and 2). beyond these statements nothing more can be said about the behavior of the natural frequencies without defining precisely the manner in which t...

a trial was conducted to evaluate the performance of broiler birds which supplemented with a commercial inactivated probiotic. four hundred and fifty day old broiler chickens were allocated into 3 treatments with 6 replicates each. each replicate was placed on clean wood shavings in floor pens receiving feed and water ad libitum. in treatment 1, feed was supplemented with 500 g/ton of a heat-in...

evaporation of micro-liter drops from solid surfaces at room condition is mainly governed by diffusion. therefore, there should be no difference between evaporation rate of sessile and pendant drops. however, some studies indicate a difference and explain the difference using buoyancy. the objective here is to reconcile the inconsistency in the literature. for that, first, by comparing two iden...

evaluation and improvement of drug management process is essential for patient safety. the present study was performed whit the aim of assessing risk of drug management process in women surgery department of qeh using hfmea method in 2013. a mixed method was used to analys failure modes and their effects with hfmea. to classify failure modes; nursing errors in clinical management model, for cla...

In this work the effects of heat generation on the modes of Yb:Glass double clad fiber laser were investigated. The thermal dispersion and thermally-induced birefringence were considered when the gain medium becomes an anisotropic medium. The results showed considerable modifications of laser modes profiles, in particular for transfer magnetic (TM) and transfer electric (TE) modes which their p...
