Nitrogen utilization timeline of carrot over the growing season

The net utilization of ammonium nitrogen by the growing rat.

While it is well known that ruminants (with the aid of rumen microorganisms) can utilize ammonium salts and urea in lieu of dietary protein,” 2 it has long been held that monogastric animals cannot.’ In view of the findings of Foster, Schoenheimer, and Rittenberg3 that dietary ammonium N15 is rapidly incorporated into rat tissue proteins, it seemed possible that the nitrogen of ammonium salts m...

Assessment of Ammonia Volatilization Losses and Nitrogen Utilization during the Rice Growing Season in Alkaline Salt-Affected Soils

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the effects of different fertilizer types and application rates on ammonia volatilization loss and to explore nitrogen distribution and nitrogen use efficiency using the 15N isotope tracing technique in different alkaline salt-affected conditions in the Songnen Plain, Northeast China. The results showed a decreasing trend in ammonia volatilization l...

Variations in sucrose,total free amino acids and nitrates of sugarbeets during the growing season under high nitrogen untritional conditions

Non-essential nitrogen and protein utilization in the growing rat.

Three series of nitrogen-balance experiments were carried out on growing rats fed on purified isonitrogenous diets (16 g N/kg) to study the importance of non-essential N and the essential:total N (E:T) ratio for attaining maximum N balance (NB) and biological value (BV) of protein. Minimum dietary levels of asparagine, proline and glutamic acid required for maximum NB and BV were estimated to b...

Effects of diaryliodonium chemicals on nitrogen utilization in growing steers.

Diaryliodonium chemicals increased nitrogen (N) absorption, utilization of absorbed N and N retention in growing steers. Fifty parts per million of the chemicals (diphenyliodonium chloride, diphenyliodonium bromide, 4,4'-difluorodiphenyliodonium chloride or 4,4'-dimethyldiphenyliodonium chloride) in the diet appeared sufficient to promote significant (P less than .05 or .10) improvements in N u...
