intercropping is considered as a method for increasing yield per unit and stability. in order to evaluate the effects of phosphorous biofertilizer and chemical phosphorous on fodder quality of corn (zea mays l.) and grass pea (lathyrus sativa l.) intercropping, two field experiments were conducted as factorial based on randomized complete block design with four replications at two places simult...

The effect of different feeding ratios of concentrate to roughage on ruminal lipid synthesis in vitro was examined. Three sheep fitted with a rumen fistula were fed three different ratios (8:2, 4:6 and 0:10) of concentrate and roughage, and their rumen liquor were used for incubation. C-labeled glucose or sodium acetate as substrate was added to cultures of rumen liquor, and they were incubated...

the interaction between sodium and calcium, magnesium and calcium and the combined effect of sodium, magnesium and calcium was observed on the growth and ion uptake of hippophae rhamnoides l. the results demonstrated that an addition of sodium with calcium, (set a, na 2.5 + ca 5 mm) showed prominent increase in fresh weight of roots and shoots. the dry weight (average) of roots decreased and th...

We have established a simple method for assaying the quantity of soluble bromine in the discharge tubes of an extra-high-pressure mercury discharge lamp. Each discharge tube is destroyed in 5 ml of 10 mM sodium hydroxide, and the recovered sodium hydroxide solution is analyzed by suppressed-ion chromatography using gradient elution. We have clarified that this method can assay less than 1 micro...

The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of different dietary fruit pomaces in reducing lipid oxidation in the meat of turkeys fed diets with a high content of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Over a period of 4 weeks before slaughter, turkeys were fed diets with the addition of 5% dried apple, blackcurrant, strawberry and seedless strawberry pomaces (groups AP, BP, SP and SS...

abstract this study aimed to investigate the effects of urban wastewater on some soil physical and chemical properties in segzi, east isfahan. six sites were selected considering the planted species (haloxylon persicum and nitraria schoberi) and irrigation types (control or no irrigation, water logged and furrow irrigation methods). the 4 to 12 replications were chosen in each site depending on...

A new experimental method for in vitro release studies of poorly soluble drugs from polymeric micelle systems was developed using a hydrotropic agent, sodium salicylate. It is difficult to maintain a good sink condition for poorly water-soluble drugs, such as paclitaxel (PTX), because of their low aqueous solubility. In this study, a good sink condition for PTX was achieved by using aqueous sod...

in order to study the yield and forage quality of intercropping barley (hordeum vulgare) and mustard (sinapis alba) in different planting dates, a factorial experiment based on randomized completely block design with three replications was carried out at farm research station, gonbad -e- qabus university. factors were included as three planting dates (15 november, 6 and 20 december 2006) and fo...

in this research, the groundwater quality of abhar plain was studied for drinking, domestic and irrigation uses. to assess the evaluation of hydrochemistry and quality, 26 groundwater samples were collected and analyzed for the physicochemical factors such as ph, electric conductivity (ec), total dissolved solids (tds), total hardness (th), na+, k+, ca2+,mg2+, cl-, so42-, hco3-, co32- during oc...

to investigate the effect of different concentrations (0, 0.01% and 0.02%) of salicylic acid (sa) on some quantitative and qualitative characteristics of pomegranate fruit cultivar ‘malase yazdi’ at ripening,2 and 4month ofstorageat5°c, a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block with three replications was conducted. quantitative characteristics including percentage of fruit weig...
