background & aims of the study: drinking polluted water can transmit diseases, so potable water treatment is one of the most challenging and complex systems in countries. continuous monitoring for evaluation process in water treatment plant is important. this study aims to investigate performance evaluation of qom water treatment plant to remove turbidity and coliform in 2005 - 2014. materials ...

Rats drank rapidly when 0.3 M NaCl was the only drinking fluid available after overnight water deprivation, consuming approximately 200 ml/24 h. Although such large intakes of this hypertonic solution initially elevated plasma osmolality, excretion of comparable volumes of urine more concentrated than 300 meq Na(+)/l ultimately appears to restore plasma osmolality to normal levels. Rats drank a...

1. In rats with inherited diabetes insipidus, unilateral nephrectomy plus drinking of 0.6% NaCl solution (saline) did not influence blood pressure in adult rats. However, when these factors applied before puberty, they produced hypertension. 2. We therefore analysed whether saline administration before puberty or unilateral nephrectomy before puberty was more important for this hypertensive res...

background existence of fluoride in drinking water above the permissible level causes human skeletal fluorosis. objectives electrocoagulation by iron and aluminum electrodes was proposed for removing fluoride from drinking water. materials and methods effects of different operating conditions such as treatment time, initial ph, applied voltage, type and number of electrodes, the spaces between ...

background: the human body gets fluorine from a variety of sources including food and water. this element is essential in order to prevent tooth decay. however, high concentrations of this element led to a lot of dental fluorosis and skeletal injuries. this study aimed to measure the concentration of fluoride in water and tea consumed in the city of qom. methods: the present study is cross-sect...

conclusions the ppi-g2 dendrimer with end amine groups exhibited a positive impact on the removal of dominant bacterial isolated strains. therefore, it is possible to use these nanodendrimers as a safe and effective material for water disinfection in the future. results the most important isolated bacteria were escherichia coli 37 (48.7%), klebsiella oxytoca 12 (15.8%), proteus mirabilis 3 (4%)...

terms and conditions of current drinking water quality standards, including reducing the maximum arsenic concentration from 50 μgl-1 to 10 μgl-1 and predicted stricter standards in future, reveals the necessity for development of new technologies. this study aimed to prepare and evaluate a new nanocomposite membrane using graphene oxide (go) thin layer to remove arsenic (v) from water. to fabri...

since they may expose to inorganic pollutants, drinking waters should be investigated andmonitored in industrialized regions. in this study, drinking water samples taken from eight different locationsin heavily industrialized region of turkey, namely marmara region, were analyzed to determine heavy metaland harmful trace element (fe, co, cd, hg, pb, zn, sb, cu, ba, mo, cr, mn and v) concentrati...

abstract background and purpose fluoride is one of the fundamental and required components in human body. the current study intends to survey the status of fluoride in drinking water supplies ( underground water source and drinking water) in qaemshahr city from 2006 (march/21) to 2012(march/19) and comparison with universal standards, national and climatic conditions. materials and methods this...
