the present study has been conducted on caspian roach (rutilus rutilus) so that the impact of different concentrations lead on blood hematological, biochemical, and immunological indicators could be investigated. the roach (rutilus rutilus), used in this study, was 3.3±0.3 g heavy and 4±0.80 cm long in average. the fish were exposed to a low concentration of 10% lc50 and high concentration of 5...

in order to investigate the combined effects of shift work and heat stress on the physiological parameters, such as heart rate (hr) and body temperature (bt), a hot-dry working environment was investigated for 53 workers in foundry workshops. in this study wet bulb globe temperature index (wbgt) was measured and along with that simultaneously heart rate and oral temperature were checked in 3 sh...

heat stress is well recognized among the hazardous physical agents that might be present during work. this study aims to compare wbgt index at acclimated and unacclimated people to permissible threshold limit value and study the differences between physiological parameters at them. twenty one healthy men were participated in the study. all of the subjects were monitored in two different weather...

heat stress is an important and serious threat at work and is a particular concern in outdoor occupational environments. this study aims at comparing heat stress and heat strain at different outdoor groups, examining the protective and adaptive actions which were done by workers and also provi services to them by government or employer to reduce heat load. this cross–sectional study was conduct...

original article   introduction: exposure to heat is one of the workplace risk factors, which may lead to thermal strain, such as rising heart rate and body temperature. to have the best association between a heat stress indices and physiological parameters have always been a major concern for those studying the subject. this study aims to compare the association of two heat stress indices with...

to date, the effects of nanoparticles on woody plants remain unaddressed. this study reveals some of the physiological and biochemical effects of sio2 nanoparticles on wild pear seedlings. the seedlings were irrigated with different concentrations of nano silica (0, 10, 100, 500 and 1000 mg/l) for 14 days. nanoparticle adsorption and absorption, biomass allocation, gas exchange, relative water ...

background : necessity of evaluating heat stress in the workplace, require validation of indices and selection optimal index. the present study aimed to assess the precision and validity of some heat stress indices and select the optimum index for using in heavy work activities in hot and dry climates. methods: it carried out on 184 workers from 40 brick kilns workshops in the city of qom, cent...

Background: The relationship between anthropometrical and physiological parameters with jumping and throwing distance is important. We aimed to investigate the relationship between anthropometrical and physiological parameters with jumping and throwing distance of young elite female jumpers and throwers <spa...

1 Robert Winston Brown, RMIT University, PO Box 2476V Melbourne Australia, 3001, [email protected] Abstract Whilst much attention is paid to the quality and the avenues of presentation of educational material, there seems to be little consideration given to human physiological processes of information ingestion and assimilation when planning the educational experience. Human visual and aural info...
