application of ict in health (ehealth) has become an integral part of modern healthcare systems. elec­tronic health information management has proven useful in improving quality of health care, reducing costs and facilitating health research. however, the increasing complexity of healthcare and the growing demand for high quality healthcare delivery has created a need for ehealth systems with t...

although, grapevines do not have a high chilling requirement, its fulfillment is critical for normal development of the vines. in tropical and subtropical regions such as farrashband, in the south of iran, there is no adequate winter chilling to release bud dormancy in grapevines. so it is necessary to consider the effect of chemical dormancy–breaking agents on bud dormancy. in the present rese...

nano structured materials have wide range of applications due to their interesting size-dependent chemical and physical properties compared to particles of size in the range of micrometer. copper oxide nano materials are of interest on account of their potential uses in many technological fields. in this study  cuo nanoparticles were synthesized via simple sol gel method using basic cuso4 as we...

ethylene bis-stearamide is one of the important acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene ()abs)( polymer additives, which is used as lubricant, slip agent and mold release agent. in this research, ethylene bis-stearamide for abs application was synthesized using stearic acid and ethylene diamine under reflux condition. refluxing prevented ethylenediamine from evaporation and thus the initial molar ratio...

background: there is a controversy about the relation between anti-hepatitis b (anti-hbs) antibody level and obesity. we designed this study to compare the vaccine efficacy in obese/overweight and non-obese cases. methods: in this cross-sectional study, 242 obese/overweight and 85 non-obese individuals were participated. cases were selected from a referral clinic for obesity and a referral hepa...

this study presents the synthesis of polyvinyl acetate (pvac) by solution polymerization and its partial hydrolysis to polyvinyl alcohol (pva) using alkaline alcoholysis. the influence of the molar ratio of hydrolysis catalyst (naoh) to pvac and the time and temperature of the saponification reaction on the degree of hydrolysis and molecular weight of the pva were investigated using response su...

This research has been undertaken to explore the idea of agent banking as a mean financial inclusion serve unbanked population expediently. Financial means bringing populace within formal net. paper is concerned about initiatives towards cheaper alternative. also investigates significance and competence in accessing lower income people en route for inclusion. Based on secondary sources, this re...
