rivers can be contaminated with different pollutants such as trout farms. evaluation of the effect of trout farm on water quality is important to give new permission for trout farm construction. in current work, the effect of constructed trout farms near the deinachal river on some physicochemical properties namely chemical oxygen demand (cod), biological oxygen demand (bod5), dissolved oxygen ...

background: although experiments on water quality are time consuming and expensive, models are often employed as supplement to simulate water quality. artificial neural network (ann) is an efficient tool in hydrologic studies, yet it cannot predetermine its results in the forms of maps and geo-referenced data. methods: in this study, ann was applied to simulate groundwater quality and geographi...

introduction: the increasing of population and limited drinking water resources has enhanced the necessity of using bottled water. many people are now using bottled water because they believe it is a healthful alternative beverage to soft drinks or other bottled beverages. therefore, the bottled water industry has grown immensely during the past decades. this descriptive cross-sectional study h...

the application of organic amendments can be an appropriate solution to reclaim and improve physical propertiesof saline-sodic soils. in this research, an experiment was performed under greenhouse conditions to study the effect ofamendments to the physical properties of loamy saline-sodic soil. the five treatments were control (withoutamendment), municipal solid waste compost (mc), vermicompost...

background: groundwater resources in arid and semi arid regions are very important. groundwater is contaminated by agricultural, industrial and municipal activity which as a result reduces its quality. investigating of the chemical quality of the groundwater is emphasized to identify pollutant environmental impacts associated with incorrect waste disposal practice. this research investigated th...

Drinking water has received considerable attention recently. However, misuse and mismanagement have resulted in a rapid and widespread decline in source-water quality and supply. Water quality guidelines can be used to identify constituents of concern in water, to determine the levels to which the constituents of water must be treated for drinking purposes. Membrane technology for the water cyc...

  Abstract   Introduction: Neurodegeneration change is one of the hallmark symptoms of which Alzheimer’s disease (AD) can be modeled by β-amyloid injection into specific regions of brain. (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a potent antioxidant agent that its role against oxidative stress and inflammation has been shown in prior studies. In the present study, we have wanted to determine wh...
