boron (b) toxicity is an important disorder that can limit plant growth in arid and semi-arid environments. it has been proven that use of tolerant rootstocks impede b uptake or transport to the aerial portions of plants. this may alleviate b toxicity in the scion, consequently improves the tolerance to excess b in the root zone. an experiment was conducted to find the effects of b toxicity on ...

Background Seven dioxaborole compounds are investigated in this study. Structural and spectral characterization is done at M062X/6-31+G(d,p) level the water. Active sites of these determined using molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) maps. Electrophilic nucleophilic attack regions determined. Aim We aimed to determine whether Boron-Containing Compounds (BCCs) inhibitor used treatment COVID-1...

BN has been deposited with plasma enhanced CVD using borane dimethyl amine and NH3. The resulting layers are stable in air, although they contain an excess of boron, the actual amount depending on the deposition conditions. The presence of relatively large amounts of carbon in the layers indicates the incomplete decomposition of the organic fragment. Generally the layers posses the turbostratic...

BACKGROUND Low serum potassium appears to be independently associated with incident type 2 diabetes, and low dietary potassium is more common in African Americans than in whites. OBJECTIVE We hypothesized that low serum potassium contributes to the excess risk of diabetes in African Americans. DESIGN We analyzed data collected from 1987 to 1996 from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (...

Hans Christian Oersted first heated potassium amalgam with aluminum chloride and produced tiny pieces of aluminum in 1825. This was twenty years after Sir Humphrey Davy first named the metal “aluminum.” Davy was the first to use electrolysis to produce samples of potassium, sodium, strontium, calcium, barium, magnesium and boron. He tried unsuccessfully for many years to produce aluminum by ele...

Human and animal studies demonstrate an untoward effect of excess dietary NaCl (salt) intake on cardiovascular function and life span. The endothelium in particular augments the production of transforming growth factor (TGF), a fibrogenic growth factor, in response to excess dietary salt intake. This study explored the initiating mechanism that regulates salt-induced endothelial cell production...
