This paper research of productivity and work organization were investigated of a group made of five workers (two cutters, two tractor drivers and one cutter-inspector) and a team leader. The teamwas equipped with two tractors and three chain saws. The research was carried out in the area of management unit – Ju`na Krndija Kutjeva~ka, at an altitude ranging between 550 m and 750 m in a 55-year b...

Guardian peach rootstock was evaluated for susceptibility to Meloidogyne incognita race 3 (Georgia-peach isolate) and M. javanica in the greenhouse. Both commercial Guardian seed sources produced plants that were poor hosts of M. incognita and M. javanica. Reproduction as measured by number of egg masses and eggs per plant, eggs per egg mass, and eggs per gram of root were a better measure of h...

The object of the investigation is to study reducible $M$-ideals in Banach spaces. It is shown that if the number of $M$-ideals in a Banach space $X$ is $n(<infty)$, then the number of reducible $M$-ideals does not exceed of $frac{(n-2)(n-3)}{2}$. Moreover, given a compact metric space $X$, we obtain a general form of a reducible $M$-ideal in the space $C(X)$ of continuous functions on $X$. The...

The estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) at dialysis initiation has been rising. Observational studies suggest harm, but may be confounded by unmeasured factors. As instrumental variable methods may be less biased, we performed a retrospective cohort study of 310,932 patients who started dialysis between 2006 and 2008 and were registered in the United States Renal Data System in order to...

to study the effect of water deficit and plant density on yield and yield components of cumin (cuminum cyminum), an experiment was conducted during the 2002 - 2003 growing season at research farm of zabol university. in this study, the effects of plant density (25, 50, 100, 150, and 200 plants per m²) and water stress (before flowering, flowering, seed filling and seed hardening vs adequate irr...

The objective of this study was to determine the intrinsic capacity of heart and liver to utilize lactate in porcine breeds of varying degrees of stress-susceptibility. Experimental animals were stress susceptible Pietrain barrows (Px P), stress resistant Minnesota No. 1 barrows (Mx M) and barrows from reciprocal crosses of these breeds (P• and M• P). Parameters of postmortem muscle quality gen...

conclusions the prevalence of esbl-producing klebsiella strains in shahid-beheshti hospital in kashan has increased. the study concluded that there was a high prevalence of the blactx-m type gene among esbl positive isolates. patients and methods one hundred klebsiella spp. were isolated from clinical specimens of hospitalized patients at shahid-beheshti hospital from december 2012 to november ...

medicago spp. is the most important forage crop in many regions of the world.annual medics have distinct advantages over perennial medicago. these species have fastergrowth rate in cultivation year, higher crude protein percentage, tolerance to pests and morevigorous seedlings. morphological and physical aspects of pod and seeds of annual medicsplay a major role in the tolerance of the plants t...

PURPOSE The purpose is to determine the maximum tolerated dose, profile of adverse events, and dose-limiting toxicity of Kahalalide F (KF) in patients with androgen refractory prostate cancer. Furthermore, the pharmacokinetics after KF administration and preliminary antitumor activity were evaluated. KF is a dehydroaminobutyric acid-containing peptide isolated from the marine herbivorous mollus...
