the objectives were to investigate the effects of addition of alfalfa hay as an absorbent on fermentationquality and effluent production of corn silage. three levels of corn forage with dry matter (dm) contentsof 18.3, 21.7 and 25.5 percent were supplemented with 0, 5, 10, and 20 percent alfalfa hay, on as fedbasis, and ensiled in three replicates in polyvinyl chloride mini-silos in a completel...

Miller, Glendon R. (Southern Illinois University, Carbondale), Dan O. McClary, and Wilbert D. Bowers, Jr. Ultraviolet and phase microscopy of sporulating Saccharomyces. J. Bacteriol. 85:725-731. 1963.-During active growth, the cytoplasm of yeast cells is densely absorbent to ultraviolet light at 260 mmu, whereas the nucleus is only faintly so, and the vacuole is nonabsorbent. After 24 hr on pre...

Previous studies have demonstrated that rapid evacuation, disrobing and emergency decontamination can enhance the ability of emergency services and acute hospitals to effectively manage chemically-contaminated casualties. The purpose of this human volunteer study was to further optimise such an "Initial Operational Response" by (1) identifying an appropriate method for performing improvised ski...

When mixed with imidazolium ion-based room-temperature ionic liquid, pristine single-walled carbon nanotubes formed gels after being ground. The heavily entangled nanotube bundles were found to untangle within the gel to form much finer bundles. Phase transition and rheological properties suggest that the gels are formed by physical cross-linking of the nanotube bundles, mediated by local molec...

An important application of starch grafted with copolymers from unsaturated organic acids is the use as water absorbent. Although much research has been published in recent years, the kinetics of water absorption and the swelling behavior of starch based superabsorbents are relatively unexplored. Also, water retention under mechanical strain is usually not reported. Cassava starch was used sinc...

Purpose: Evaluation of the impact that a foreign body has in the gingival sulcus, expressed in scale to cause significant gingival infection. Material and Methods: In a sample of 10 clinical cases with fixed prosthetic appliances in the oral cavity, the levels of gingival fluid to bridge anchoring teeth are measured and compared to the same opposite respective teeth in the mandible and in the m...

The first COVID-19 disease on the move was identified in Wuhan, spreading so rapidly that it has an impact mortality, morbidity, mental health conditions and economic losses. Indonesian government declared 2019 corona virus a national disaster March 2, 2020, which poses big risk to sector. situation of community increases. So will affect purchasing power including purchase PPE (Personal Protect...

sawdust of the most inexpensive and abundant most engrossing read and the ability to absorb heavy metals from water and wastewater types. on the other hand increased metal hexavalent chromium (cr6 +) in drinking water cause toxicity, and complications from it can be. so the purpose of this research, effects of the dosage absorbent sawduste, equilibrium time, the efficiency of absorption and cal...

Since its introduction in 1940, the plaster of Paris block method of measuring soil moisture by means of electrical resistance (4) has been widely employed in agricultural fields. Hydrologic research2 (16), war production problems involving guayule culture (11, 12), and many other investigations ranging from field irrigation to greenhouse studies have made use of this technique. Briefly, the me...

Inkjet printing is familiar as a method for printing ink on absorbent paper. In principle the method can be used to print multilayer devices, but we will then need to be able to control the structure of material deposited onto hard surfaces and to overprint different materials on one another. This paper deals addresses the approaches available to form materials by reaction between successive in...
