A Simplified High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Method For Determination of Vitamin D3 in Human Serum
Abstract: Diabetes is a metabolic disorder caused by defective insulin secretion, insulin action or both. The two major factors for the development of diabetes are pancreatic beta cell dysfunction and insulin resistance. In type 2 diabetes mellitus, production and release of insulin is unobstructed but due to factors like ageing or obesity, the produced insulin cannot compensate for the increased demand. Measurement of the serum level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 is the …

Study the Corrosive Effect of Greenhouse Gases on Metallic and Non-metallic Materials
Abstract: Carbon dioxide is a major corrosive pollutant for building materials. It enters inside materials by diffusion or osmosis process and in presence of moisture it produces H2CO3 which decrease the pH value and accelerates chemical and electrochemical reaction with building materials. The carbonation reaction produces deterioration inside and outside of building materials. It produces corrosion reaction with metallic bar and disbanding with concrete. CO2 reacts with Ca (OH)2 and Mg(OH)2 …
