Three experiments were conducted to develop methods to control the amount of water loss and to evaluate the metabolic effects of water condition in the White Leghorn breeder eggs during incubation. One hundred twenty, 54, and 90 Julia strain White Leghorn breeder eggs were incubated at 37.8 degrees C, 60% RH in experiments 1, 2, and 3. In experiment 1, eggs were drilled with various bore diamet...

γ-Proteobacterium JB, an alkali-tolerant soil isolate, produced laccase (8X10 nkat/L) in M162 medium. The optimization of process conditions (pH, incubation time, agitation, and CuSO4 concentration) for laccase production during submerged fermentation was carried out using response surface methodology (RSM) based on a central composite design (CCD). Maximum laccase production achieved was 7.4 X...

The effect of different levels of osmolality and pH of lactose extender on the viability of Bactrian camelspermatozoa was investigated. Semen was collected from 10 Bactrian camel bulls using modified bovineartificial vagina. In experiment I, the extenders consisted of 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13% lactose with respectiveosmolalities of 290, 333, 350, 376 and 419 mOsm/kg and the pH of 6.9. In experiment...

An in vitro experiment was conducted to determine the effect of supplemental non-fiber carbohydrate(NFC) on the disappearance kinetics of cellulose (Ce) by mixed ruminal microorganisms. Non-supplementedor NFC supplemented cellulose (467 mg NFC/g cellulose as sucrose (CeSu) or starch (CeSt) or a 1:1 mixtureof sucrose + starch (CeSuSt)) were incubated for 24, 48, and 96 h at 39°C. After each incu...

The current paper evaluated the incubation time, and doses of Uniconazole (UCZ) applied to maize seeds verify plants’ response at different phenological stages. MSG1001 hybrid were treated with UCZ (0, 50, 100 mg.kg-1 seed) times (IT – 1 min 12 h). In lab experiment, displaced in rolls previously moistened Germitest incubated for a week BOD chamber 25ºC 12-hour photoperiod. greenhouse experimen...

A number of agriculture residues may be used either directly or after suitable treatment as amendments to improve soil quality. Such materials include biochar made residues, digestate elemental sulphur obtained from biogas desulphurisation. The joint use these via pre-incubation more advantageous than only mixing prior the application soil. In this study, digestates were mixed with and incubate...

This work investigated the effects of soft rot (Erwinia carotovora) on respiration rate of potatoes stored at three storage temperatures (5, 10, and 15 C) covering temperature ranges commonly encountered in storage. Five treatments were evaluated: healthy (H), healthy with holes (HW), inoculation with no incubation (I0), inoculation with 24 hr incubation (I1), and inoculated with 48 hr incubati...

The mineralization of urea fertilizer mostly regulates the nitrogen dynamics in soil. A laboratory-scale study was conducted to compare two tropical soil series incubated with either liquid (LU) or granular (GU) at 0, 300, 400 500 mg/kg soils samples used experiment were Bungor and Selangor which have a sandy clay loam texture, respectively. NH4+-N, NO3−-N concentration measured for four weeks ...
