diazinon pesticide and its metabolites have been identified in aquatic systems worldwide. it was related to toxicity for aquatic organisms, animals, and humans. waters contaminated with such persistent insecticides should be treated with suitable treatment processes. in this research, diazinon removal from aqueous solutions by the photo–fenton–like process (uv/h2o2/fe0) was investigated. this e...

background: recognition of helminth-derived pathogen associated molecular patterns (pamps) by pattern recognition receptors (prrs), including toll like recep­tors (tlrs) is the first step towards initiating anti–helminth immune re­sponses. methods : using somatic antigens of ostertagia occidentalis, an important abomasal parasite of ruminants, the expression of ovine tlr2 and tlr4 in peripheral...

conclusions p. gingivalis and p. intermedia could play a role in implant failure by changing the expression profiles of genes related to bone formation and resorption. results viability was reduced to 56.8% (p. gingivalis) and 52.75% (p. intermedia) at 1000 multiplicity. amongst 48 genes examined, expressions of bmper, smad1, il8 and nfrkb were found to be highly upregulated by both bacterial c...

background: myocardial dysfunction is one of the major complications in patients with sepsis where there is a relationship between the blood level of cytokines and the onset of myocardial depression. in many cases of sepsis, the presence of lipopolysaccharide (lps) has been established. lps binding protein (lbp) bound endotoxin is recognized by cd14/toll-like receptor-4 (tlr4) complexes in inna...

background: the pathogenesis of migraine involves immune-mediated mechanisms in the vascular endothelium. toll like receptor 4 (tlr-4) is a signaling receptor of innate immunity which plays a role in various neuropathologies related to neuron inflammation. objective: this case/control study is aimed to investigate whether tlr- 4 896a/g variation is related to migraine headaches in an iranian po...

abstract objective: the previous studies indicated that the tlrs especially toll-like receptor 4) tlr4 (are involved in the process of diabetes. the aim of the present research was to investigate the time course expression pattern of tlr4-a main component of innate immune system- in mrna levels in the heart tissue of diabetic male wistar rats. materials and methods: in this research, adult wist...

We use generalized power series to construct algebraically a nonstandard model of the theory of the real eld with exponentiation. This model enables us to show the undeenability of the zeta function and certain non-elementary and improper integrals. We also use this model to answer a question of Hardy by showing that the compositional inverse to the function (log x)(log log x) is not asymptotic...

The group theory of the spontaneous breaking of SU(N) is explored. Two specific cases are analyzed in detail: (i) SU(N) is broken to SO(N) via a scalar field vacuum expectation value for a second-rank symmetric tensor multiplet, and (ii) SU(2N) or SU(2N +1) is broken to Sp(2N) via a scalar field vacuum expectation value for a secondrank antisymmetric tensor multiplet. The case of the spontaneou...

1,0 h representing (1+1) geometry, and ~ 1/50,000 in magnitude to 3,0 h of (3+1) geometry. The non vanishing of the 1,0 h term representing (1+1) geometry contravenes predictions of no relic gravitational waves and makes predictions if the prior universe was a single event a la Steinhardt or a multiverse in the form suggested by Tegmark. I.e. change in the application of 0 φ ≅ && of inflation. ...
