A new method for isolating blood leukocytes and measuring intracellular leukocyte magnesium is based on three successive centrifugations (1300 x g, 5 min, 22 degrees C), with no use of Ficoll, followed by two washes. We express the leukocyte magnesium concentration in micromoles of magnesium per gram of protein. Magnesium is measured by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, protein by the classi...

This study compared magnesium oxide and magnesium citrate with respect to in vitro solubility and in vivo gastrointestinal absorbability. The solubility of 25 mmol magnesium citrate and magnesium oxide was examined in vitro in solutions containing varying amounts of hydrochloric acid (0-24.2 mEq) in 300 ml distilled water intended to mimic achlorhydric to peak acid secretory states. Magnesium o...

groundwater is a major source of water for domestic, industrial, and agricultural sectors in many countries. the main objective of this research was to provide an overview of present groundwater quality using parameters such as calcium, magnesium, sodium, chloride, sulfate, ph, and electrical conductivity (ec) in the mehran plain, ilam province using gis and geostatistical techniques. a total o...

STUDY OBJECTIVES We examine the safety and efficacy of magnesium sulfate infusion, in addition to usual care, for acute rate reduction in patients with atrial fibrillation and a rapid ventricular response rate. METHODS This was a prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of intravenous magnesium sulfate in adult emergency department patients with rapid atrial fibrillatio...

in order to evaluate the efficiency of inoculation of chickpea seeds with mesorhizobium and application of nitrogen and zinc on yield and yield components of rainfed chickpea an experiment was carried out in research station of shirvan-chardavel, ilam. the experiment was conducted in randomized complete block design (rcbd) with six treatments including mesorhizobium inoculation, nitrogen (40 kg...

conclusions: the reduction of propofol injection pain was observed by using medications (in comparison with normal saline), but it was more significant in groups g and l. moreover, hypotension was higher in groups s and g and it was lessened in group p. patients and methods: this is an interventional study containing 336 patients underwent elective orthopedic surgeries in educational hospitals ...

A d-aminoacylase-producing microorganism, strain DA181, isolated from soil was identified as Alcaligenes denitrificans subsp. denitrificans. This strain produced about 29,300 units (micromoles of product formed per hour) of d-aminoacylase and 2,300 units of l-aminoacylase per gram of cells (wet weight) when cultivated in a medium containing 1% N-acetyl-dl-leucine as the carbon source. The d-ami...

Objective: Magnesium sulfate has been shown to provide analgesia when administered into the knee joints. The aim of this study was to evaluate the histopathological effects of intraarticular administration of magnesium sulfate in the rat knee joint. Design: A total of 50 rats were given 0.25ml of magnesium sulfate (10%) by injection into the right knee joint and 0.25ml of 0.9% saline solution b...

A site was prepared with 2 distinctly different soil depths and a vineyard of 'Concord' grapes (Vitis labrusca L.) was established with in-row spacings of 1.52, 1.83, 2.13, 2.44, and 3.05 m. Wider in-row vine spacings resulted in increased vine yields on deeper soils to the point that yields per meter of cordon and per hectare were not reduced; but yield per meter of cordon and per hectare was ...

The objective of this study was to construct a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP)-based genetic map at the cultivated tetraploid level to locate quantitative trait loci (QTL) contributing to economically important traits in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.). The 156 F1 progeny and parents of a cross (MSL603) between "Jacqueline Lee" and "MSG227-2" were genotyped using the Infinium 8303 Potato Arr...
