Volume 2 • Issue 1 • 1000e104 Adv Dairy Res ISSN: 2329-888X ADR, an open access journal Although water vapour is the largest and essential greenhouse gas inclusive of ozone in the stratosphere, the mitigation of anthropogenic six greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, sulphur hexafluoride, hydrofluorocarbons and perfluorocarbons have been established as legally binding...

Endogenously produced oxides of nitrogen appear to play important roles in tissue and organ homeostasis. Endogenous production of nitric oxide, which can be altered in response to various stimuli, can modulate vascular tone, oxyradical cascades, cell adhesion, and other aspects of inflammation. Because exogenously administered (inhaled) nitric oxide can mediate pulmonary vasodilatation and impr...

The pattern of ventilation was studied in eight greyhounds anaesthetized with halothane in 50% oxygen with nitrogen and in eight with the same concentration of halothane in 50% oxygen with nitrous oxide. There was a significant reduction in both inspiratory and expiratory times in the animals breathing nitrous oxide and an increase in the negative pressures developed in the obstructed airway du...

Ammonia (NH3) is produced from atmospheric nitrogen and hydrogen from a hydrocarbon source. Natural gas is the most commonly used hydrocarbon feedstock for new plants; other feedstocks that have been used include naphtha, oil, and gasified coal. Natural gas is favored over the other feedstocks from an environmental perspective. Ammonia production from natural gas includes the following processe...

Two dibenzoxanthenium derivatives bearing a 3,4-diaminophenyl group, compounds 1a and 1b, have been prepared and evaluated as near-infrared probes for the detection of nitric oxide. Compound 1a gave a 3-fold emission enhancement towards nitric oxide at 681 nm, whereas compound 1b exhibited OFF-ON emission behavior towards nitric oxide, resulting in a 35-fold increase in the fluorescence intensi...

Hafnium oxide and Hafnium oxynitrides thin films are deposited on a Si substrate using reactive sputtering. Compared with Hafnium dioxide, Hafnium oxynitrides showed excellent electrical characteristics such as low leakage current density and low capacitance equivalent oxide thickness. By X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), we were able to confirm nitrogen incorporation in the oxide bulk an...

Nitrite and nitrous oxide made up 40% of the hypolimnetic dissolved inorganic nitrogen in mesotrophic Lake Rotoiti, New Zealand, prior to hypolimnetic anoxia. Up to 120 mg of N m-3 as nitrite and 20 mg of N m-3 as nitrous oxide accumulated, whereas dissolved-oxygen concentrations remained between 1.0 and 0.2 g m-3 and were totally consumed when the hypolimnion became completely anoxic. Assays o...

Ever since the industrial revolution, there has been a growing excess of nutrients and related emissions into the atmosphere (ammonia, nitrogen oxides and nitrous oxide) and into groundwater and surface water (nitrate), leading to a large range of cascading environmental impacts. Vehicular traffic, sewage and animal husbandry are the main sources of oxidized and reduced forms of Nr. This report...
