Abstract The present work was carried out in the deltaic region of river Godavari coastal Andhra Pradesh southern India to evaluate status groundwater quality for irrigation. Groundwater is predominantly used these productive agricultural fields. Saline water intrusion fresh aquifers, which mainly due excess withdrawal groundwater, recorded study area. A total 80 samples were analyzed physical ...

This study explored the viability of greenhouse cultivation Dendrocalamopsis oldhami under “South Bamboo North Transplanting” initiative. In this study, effects planting year and nitrogen application on changes in soil nutrient levels, salinity, alkalinity over plant growth period were explored. After introduction bamboo 2017, a layer with thickness 0–40 cm was sampled at end shooting stage bet...

At neutral pH, Zn2+ is a potent and specific inhibitor of rat liver fructose 1,6-bisphosphatase (EC 3.1.3.11; D-fructose-1,6-bisphosphate 1-phosphohydrolase). Inhibition by Zn2+ is uncompetitive with respect to the activating cations Mg2+ and Mn2+, and the kinetic data suggest that the enzyme possesses a distinct high-affinity binding site for Zn2+, with Ki of approximately 0.3 muM. At higher c...

in this research, the groundwater quality of hoz–e–soltan lake and its catchment was studied for drinking, domestic and irrigation uses according to different parameters. this lake with 195 km2 catchment area is located 85 km of southwest of tehran–qom highway. in order to investigate groundwater quality characteristics in the study area, 34 data from water of well belong to 2008 selected to pr...

Water quality is identically important as quantity in terms of meeting basic human needs. Therefore, evaluating the surface-water and associated hydrochemical characteristics essential for managing water resources arid semi-arid environments. present research was conducted to evaluate predict agricultural purposes across Nile River, Egypt. For that, several irrigation indices (IWQIs) were used,...

The enzymatic activity of citrate synthase from pig heart can be inhibited by various ions. The order of inhibitory effect of monovalent cations is Li+ > K+ > Na+ > Cs+ and that of anions is SCN> Cl> tartrate. Divalent cations such as Ca2+ and Mg2+ are much more effective than monovalent cations, but thiocyanate is as effective as divalent cations. ATP is also a potent inhibitor, but dATP has n...

This work analyzes the role of natural groundwater, as well effect HCO3−, Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, SO42- and Cl− concentrations, upon photocatalytic nitrate reduction using ilmenite catalyst oxalic acid hole scavenger. The removal selectivity towards N2 are significantly limited compared to previous experiments ultrapure water matrix. Calcium (Ca2+), bicarbonate (HCO3−) pH claimed major controlling fact...

Effects of monovalent cations on the neutral rabbit liver fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase are multifunctional and dependent on their nonhydrated ionic size. (a) The maximal velocity is increased by addition of monovalent cations with the optimum stimulation occurring with a nonhydrated ionic radius of 1.2 A in the presence of a chelating agent such as EDTA. (B) Activation curves are sigmoidal with ...

Pulmonary delivery of fluoroquinolones (FQs) is an interesting approach to treat lung infections as it may lead to high local concentrations while minimizing systemic exposure. However, FQs have a rapid diffusion through the lung epithelium giving the pulmonary route no advantage compared to the oral route. Interactions between FQs and metal cations form complexes which limit the diffusion thro...
