in order to evaluate the efficacy of maister 3.1% od (foramsulfuron 3% + iodosulfuron 0.1% + isoxadifen-ethyl 3%) in the control of weeds in corn fields, a series of experiments were conducted during 2010 in karaj, zarghan and jiroft. a series of rcbd design with four replications. treatments were application of a) nicosulfuron (kruz) at 2 lit.ha-1, b) bromoxynil+mcpa (bromicid m.a) 1.5 lit.ha-...

Abstract In this study, microfunnel-supported liquid-phase microextraction method (MF-LPME) was optimized and applied for the determination of some chlorophenoxyacetic acids (CPAAs) from natural water samples. The extraction was performed with 540 μL toluene which was retained at the surface of the sample solution using an upside down microfunnel. After the extraction, toluene was moved in...

A newly developed apparatus for automated behavioural analysis, Laboratory Animal Behaviour Observation, Registration and Analysis System (LABORAS), has been further validated with respect to the ability of the system to detect the pharmacodynamic effects of standard pharmacological tools. Data were obtained from rats administered with mCPP (reversal with SB242084), 8-OH-DPAT (reversal with WAY...

We investigated the role of 5-HT2C receptors and serotonergic transmission in the feeding behavior control of quails. Administration of serotonin releaser, fenfluramine (FEN) and 5-HT2C agonists, mCPP and MK212, 1.0 and 3.3 mg/Kg induced significant inhibition of food intake in previously fasted fowls (0.71 +/- 0.18 g and 0.47 +/- 0.2 g; 0.49 +/- 0.22 g and 0.48 +/- 0.29 g; 0.82 +/- 0.13 g and ...
