The objective of this study was to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of indinavir in human immunodeficiency virus-infected children as part of a prospective, open, uncontrolled, multicenter study in The Netherlands. Human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected children were monitored over 6 months of treatment with zidovudine (120 mg/m(2) every 8 h [q8h]), lamivudine (4 mg/kg of body weight q12h), ...

Spring-hatched broiler breeders housed in non-lightproof facilities are frequently maintained on long daylengths to prevent precocity, but controlled-feeding and delayed dissipation of photorefractoriness retard sexual maturation. Trials were conducted to determine the appropriate growth for birds maintained on 14-h photoperiods, and to compare responses with naturally increasing and decreasing...

in order to study a the effect of different levels of ammonium sulfate on photosynthesis pigments, essential oil content and components in summer savory, an experiment was conducted based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with five treatments and three replications on karaj climate conditions. the treatments included five levels of ammonium sulfate consist of: control (without fertiliz...

Warm temperature promotes flowering in Arabidopsis thaliana and this response involves multiple signalling pathways. To understand the temporal dynamics of temperature perception, tests were carried out to determine if there was a daily window of enhanced sensitivity to warm temperature (28 °C). Warm temperature applied during daytime, night-time, or continuously elicited earlier flowering, but...

this study was conducted to investigate the effect of aflatoxin b1 (afb1) on performance and egg quality in broiler breeders and the abatement of its deteriorative effect through its counteraction with herbal mycotoxin binder (hmb). thirty-six, 28-wk-old broiler breeder hens were allotted to one of the three treatments of: (1) basal diet (control),(2) control plus 500 μg kg-1 afb1 and (3) contr...

The USDA-ARS Sugarcane Variety Development Program in Houma, LA aims to maximize the number of panicles available for crossing through artificial manipulation of the environment. In a three-year study, the effect of growing media, fertilizer treatment, and their interaction on sugarcane flowering (% of panicles emerged), and number of days to flowering (DTF) under an artificial photoperiod trea...

Purpose: To investigate the effect of Notopterygium incisum Ting ex H.T. Chang extract (NICE) on ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis in rats.
 Methods: Female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to a normal group (control) and five ovariectomy (OVX) subgroups: OVX with vehicle (OVX), positive control drug alendronate sodium tablets (1.8 mg/kg/week), varying NICE doses (45, 90, or 180 m...

This study was carried out to determine some yield characteristics of Hungarian vetch varieties and evaluate them as bee pastures based on bee-plant relationship. Eight were used in the study. In Bingöl province, where research out, flowering started April 18. Counts 23 ended May 11. remained blooming for about three weeks province. An average 14.9 bees per m2 visited flower an 9.0 seconds. It ...
