Strong influences of ground state oxygen O(3p) on DMS consumption were found by the photolysis of HONO and CH3ONO as OH. sources, and the rate constants obtained in these systems varied significantly. The rate constants of the reaction between DMS and OH- (generated by photolysis of H2 O2) at room temperature were 8.56 × 10^-12, 11.31× 10^-12, and 4.50× 10^-12 cm3/(molecule.s), in air, O2, and N2, respectively. The temperature dependence of the rate constants for OH- with DMS over the temperature range of 287-338 K was also investigated in nitrogen and air, and the Arrhenius expression was obtained as follows: kaire=(7.24±0.28)× 10^-13exp[(770.7±E97.2)/T], kN2 =(3.40±0.15) × 10^-11 exp[-- (590.3±165.9)/T].展开更多

AGEs formation is enhanced in diabetes and is associated with the development of diabetic complications. AGEs, as an important marker of chronic complications of diabetes mellitus, plays an important role in the development and progression of diabetic nephropathy. In the current review, we discuss mechanisms and the role of AGEs in diabetic nephropathy.展开更多

This study was done in 9 rivers namely Jhikhukhola of the Koshi system, Aandhikhola, Arungkhola, East Rapti, Karrakhola, Seti and main channel Narayani of the Gandaki system, and two independent systems within Nepal, Bagmati and Tinau. Among the morphologies, river bed or the substratum was taken as the main variable for the analysis which was categorized into 7 types as rocks, boulders, cobbles, pebbles, gravels, sand and silt. There were 23 sampling sites each with 2 stretches of around 100m in those rivers. The data were taken as a percentage, and to avoid biases it was observed visually by the same person for a complete year in every season. With 23 sites each with 2 stretches and 4 replicates corresponding to 4 seasons, there are altogether 184 observations, each termed as a case, that constitute this work. Canonical Discrimination Analysis (CDA) which is most suitable when the data pool is huge was applied to see if the rivers studied distinguish themselves in terms of its morphology. The result was remarkably successful and was close to the established regional classification of the rivers. This kind of river classification has great application in the utilization, conservation and restoration of the most important natural re-source of the country.展开更多
