An evaluation has been carried out of the groundwater system in Bahrain. It has involved the collection of water samples from all the water bearing formations to study the quality of the groundwater. Each water sample was tested physically, chemically, and bacteriologically. Additionally, the five day biochemical oxygen demand test and hydrogen sulphide were detected. The period of the actual sampling and testing extended from mid-1990 to the beginning of 1992. The results obtained have been compared to the results of an earlier study conducted between 1978 and 1979. The investigation has also

Abstract:
Polymersomes are vesicles formed from block copolymers. Their large internal volumes and thick walls make them very attractive for the encapsulation of different species. However, a major issue which prevents the use of polymersomes in most of the applications is that the encapsulation efficiency of payload molecules using current encapsulation methods is too low. This problem is thought to be related to the formation mechanism of polymersomes through self-assembly of the constituent block copolymer molecules. This project is concern with employing a fundamentally different strategy for polyme

The downstream influence of storage reservoirs upon river water chemistry is an area largely devoid of literature.

Moreover, the establishment of a reservoir in the head waters of a major river, can change the water quality regime for a considerable distance below t
