Myocardial ischemia is a significant concern in the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. In this context, multi-target therapeutic strategies are gaining significant importance, and the present study is designed to prepare alginate nanogels (ANGs) entrapped with bioactive molecules epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG) and 5-azacytidine (5-A). The nanogels were characterized using various physiochemical techniques, including UV-visible spectroscopy, DLS and zeta, FTIR, XRD, HR-SEM, and AFM analysis, indicating the entrapment of both bioactive molecules in ANGs. The antioxidant ability of the nanogels was evaluated using DPPH and superoxide scavenging activity to evaluate their protective effect, and it was indicated that the nanogels have superior antioxidant activity due to the presence of EGCG. To understand the hemocompatibility of the nanogels with bioactive molecules, a hemolysis test was carried out, and the nanogels did not cause any significant hemolysis for the concentrations tested. An ex-vivo copper ascorbate system was used to induce cardiac injury in chicken hearts, and the antioxidant status of heart tissue revealed that nanogels ANGs/EGCG/5-A could maintain an antioxidant status comparable to that of the control group. Histopathological analysis further revealed that nanogels containing EGCG and 5-A could preserve the structural integrity via an antioxidant defence mechanism, thereby protecting the cardiac function. Further in-vivo studies can establish alginate-based nanogels as a therapeutic agent for myocardial injury.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":600,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Science and Technology, Transactions A: Science","volume":"48 6","pages":"1425 - 1441"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142524425","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One significant challenge in developing effective management strategies is the lack of accurate predictions regarding the dispersion and distribution of pollutants. Consequently, modeling water quality and pollutant distribution is crucial for evaluating these impacts. This study aims to spatially model nutrient release from fish breeding cages in the Sisangan region and assess its impact on water quality using the CORMIX numerical model. Conducted in November 2019 in the Caspian Sea, Mazandaran province, the research involved nine sampling stations. Physicochemical parameters were measured using a Conductivity-Temperature-Depth (CTD) device. Nutrient samples, including nitrogen and phosphorus compounds, were collected with a Niskin bottle and analyzed in the laboratory. Field sampling revealed an average TRIX index of 2.3, indicating oligotrophic water conditions but an elevated trophic state. Modeling results demonstrated that nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations decrease with increasing distance from the fish cages. The findings suggest a potential shift from oligotrophic to mesotrophic conditions due to the increased nutrient load from fish farming activities. This underscores the importance of understanding and managing the environmental impacts of marine aquaculture on water quality and ecosystem health. Effective management strategies must be developed to mitigate these impacts and ensure sustainable aquaculture practices.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":600,"journal":{"name":"Iranian Journal of Science and Technology, Transactions A: Science","volume":"48 6","pages":"1443 - 1452"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2024-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142524346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Copper mineralization in the deposit is associated to a Miocene diorite/granodiorite stock. The ore–forming process can be categorized into early, main, and late stages. Based on the microthermometry results, the salinities of the fluid system evolved from 5.86 to 16.15 wt% NaCl equivalent in the early stage, through bimodal ranges of 2.4–12.2 and 30.39–42.56 wt% NaCl equivalent in the main stage, and to 8.14–23 wt% NaCl equivalent in the late stage, strongly suggesting that fluid boiling and CO<sub>2</sub> escape occurred during the main stage of the Chahfirouzeh porphyry system. Furthermore, the total homogenization temperatures of fluid inclusions decrease from 327 to 492 °C during the early, to 313–458 °C during the main, and finally to 250–377 °C during the late events. Laser Raman results also show the presence of CO<sub>2</sub> and CH<sub>4</sub> in the main stage fluid inclusion, which may be due to an equilibrium between them linked to the transition from potassic to phyllic alteration.

The assessments also explore the emergence of different bifurcations such as saddle-node, transcritical, and Hopf bifurcation. The effct of harvesting rate and additional food on pests and natural enemy populations are highlighted through numerical simulations. The findings indicate that the system’s multiple equilibria, their stability, and various bifurcations are outcomes of changes in harvesting rates and the availability of additional food. This work offers theoretical insights into biological control initiatives, highlighting specific critical values for imposed harvesting.

The polymetallic mineralization of the Anarak is often in related to the listvenitization of ultramafic rocks. These hydrothermal deposits are structurally controlled by basement faults. Rose diagrams and Fry analysis of structural data show an E-W trend in the distribution of faults and mineralization in the region. Analysis of the aeromagnetic data characterizes a west-east and northwest-southeast trend for deep faults that control the boundary of the Paleozoic intrusive and ultramafic rocks.

The major faults trending west-east, especially the basement faults, play an important role in the distribution of polymetallic deposits in the Anarak region. In addition to their role as conduits for hydrothermal fluids, these faults were crucial in the emplacement of various host rocks, such as ultramafic and intrusive rocks.
