GROWTH RESPONSE AND CATION - INTERACTION IN HIPPOPHAE RHAMNOIDES L

The interaction between sodium and calcium, magnesium and calcium and the combined effect of sodium, magnesium and calcium was observed on the growth and ion uptake of Hippophae rhamnoides L. The results demonstrated that an addition of sodium with calcium, (set a, Na 2.5 + Ca 5 mM) showed prominent increase in fresh weight of roots and shoots. The dry weight (average) of roots decreased an...

Plasma and erythrocyte magnesium levels are correlated with oxygen uptake in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus.

The relationship between magnesium levels and oxygen uptake in patients with non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) without apparent visceral dysfunction was studied. Magnesium levels in plasma, erythrocytes and urine as well as oxygen uptake parameters were determined in NIDDM patients and controls. Oxygen uptake parameters were measured with an exercise ergometer and expired gas anal...

Effect of a low magnesium diet on in vitro glucose uptake in sucrose fed rats.

Dietary magnesium deficiency and excess sucrose in the diet have been shown to play an important role in the development of insulin resistance. This study is an extension of a previously published experiment (Magnes Res 2004; 17: 293-300) and is focused on the effect of a low magnesium diet on in vitro glucose uptake in sucrose fed rats. For this purpose male Wistar rats were divided into four ...

Early life stages of carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) depend on ambient magnesium for their development.

Carp eggs, fertilized in vitro, were allowed to develop in fresh water with magnesium concentrations varying from 0.001 to 0.100 mmol l-1. Magnesium concentrations below 0.010 mmol l-1 seriously impeded carp embryonic development: the incidence of deformed larvae and mortality increased steeply to 100% at water magnesium concentrations of 0.001 mmol l-1. Thus, early life stages of carp require ...
