Background & Aims: Human beings are constantly exposed to different radiations that have always been recognized as a health hazard. Radon -222 and its daughter products are major sources of natural radiations and a significant total inhalation dose is related to them. Hence, the measurement of radon activity in the environment has gained an increasing importance. In this study, with the measure...

L-asparaginase has lots of medical and industrial applications. Ever since L-asparaginase anti-tumor activity was first demonstrated, its production using microbial systems has attracted considerable attention owing to their cost-effective and eco-friendly nature. The aim of this study is to obtain L-asparaginase producing bacteria and determining the enzyme activity. Samples were picked up fro...

mahallat hot springs located in the northeast of mahallat, in central iran. there are 6 main hot springs namely shafa, abejoush, donbeh, soleimanie, hakim and soda. in this research, geology, physico-chemical characteristics and petrography of basement rocks of these hot springs have been investigated. the results show that hot springs have an average temperature of 45°c and acidic to neutral p...

conclusions the current report isolates, characterizes, and demonstrates the novel heat-adapted amylase-producing bacteria ss1, ss2 and ss3 from taptapani hot spring, indicating its potentiality and stability under acidic conditions. materials and methods bacterial strains were isolated by dilution plating method from the water samples collected from taptapani hot spring, odisha and screened fo...

Tourism in hot spring areas has been popular in Taiwan recently. However, hot spring resources are limited and scarce, so it is important to use hot spring resources effectively and appropriately, and study hot spring industrial symbiosis and industry chain. Therefore, the study constructs a hot spring industrial park model through ecological viewpoint. PDCA cycle is adopted to install the oper...

introduction natural and artificial radionuclides are the main sources of human radiation exposure. these radionuclides, which are present in the environment, can be dissolved into water. evidence suggests that radionuclides being entered the human body through drinking or hot spring water can be harmful for human health. materials and methods in this study,10 samples were collected from ground...

Hot spring or hot spa bathing (Onsen) is a traditional therapy for the treatment of certain ailments. There is a common belief that hot spring bathing has therapeutic effects for wound healing, yet the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. To examine this hypothesis, we investigated the effects of Nagano hot spring water (rich in carbonate ion, 42°C) on the healing process of the skin...

introduction:  all of  the  people worldwide  are exposed  to  low levels  of  radiation. cancer induction  and  genetic disorders are among the hazards of low level exposure. in some cases, radiation close to hot springs is  higher than normal areas due to a high concentration and the decay products of ra-226. given the use of hot  springs by the general public  because  of their therapeutic p...
