Abstract The problem of seepage under concrete dams was studied numerically using finite difference code in MATLAB, after verification with GeoStudio (2018 R2) to determine the lift force dams, head at third floor each and exit gradients, which all affect functionality these dams. main goal this study investigate effects cutoff locations depths on gradient uplift pressure. An empirical equation...

background: adhesion and biofilm formation are two important steps in candida pathogenesis. the aim of the current study was to investigate the presence of bcr1 gene in candida albicans (c. albicans) isolates from women with vaginal candidiasis and its impact on biofilm formation. methods: we used 50 clinical isolates which confirmed c. albicans by pcr-rflp. then total rna was extracted from c....

background: recombinant monoclonal antibodies have been marketed in last three decades as the major therapeutic proteins against different cancers. however choosing a proper medium and supplements to reach the high expression is a challenging step. despite of commercial serum free and chemically defined media, there are still numerous researches seeking the optimum media to gain higher expressi...

introduction: regulators of g-protein signaling protein negatively control g protein -coupled receptor signaling duration by accelerating gα subunit guanosine triphosphate hydrolysis. since regulator of g-protein signaling4 has an important role in modulating morphine effects at the cellular level and the exact mechanism(s) of adrenalectomy-induced morphine sensitization have not been fully cla...

for a long time, scientists have tried to describe disorders just by genetic or environmental factors. however, the role of epigenetics in human diseases has been considered from a half of century ago. in the last decade, this subject has attracted many interests, especially in complicated disorders such as behavior plasticity, memory, cancer, autoimmune disease, and addiction as well as neurod...
