In order to study the germination and growth of pepper seeds, a factorial experiment based on a completely randomized design with three replications was conducted. The first factor was consisting of five cultivars of pepper (Marquiza, Cadia, California Wonder, California Wonder 310 and California Wonder 300) and the second factor was gibberellic acid with three levels (0 as control, 250 and 500...

Studies showed that assisted reproductive technology changed the sex ratio at birth, but the effect of semen processing (swim-up technique and density-gradient separation) on enriching either Xor Y-bearing sperm is always controversial. We recruited 30 healthy males and their semen samples were obtained by masturbation after sexual abstinence for 2-7 days. Each sample was divided into 3 aliquot...

Dalam penelitian digunakan material subbase dari Okaba. Pada bertujuan untuk mengetahui berapa nilai CBR pada LPB Bandar ...

The construction industry is one of the key industries with high potential for circular economy; promotion reuse and recycling demolition waste (CDW) essential sustainable urban development. In this study, a series compaction, California bearing ratio, saturated hydraulic conductivity, particle breakage tests well– poor–graded mixtures recycled clay brick aggregates (RCBs) concrete (RCAs) maxim...

<p>In recent years, geotechnical engineers preferred environmentally friendly and sustainable techniques to improve the engineering characteristics of expansive soil. This paper focuses on comparative study enhancement in properties soil using lime waste eggshell powder. A series laboratory tests such as Unconfined Compressive Strength Test, pH test, Free swell Index Swelling Pressure Cal...

This paper presents the effect of preload on nonlinear dynamic behavior of a rigid rotor supported by two-lobe aerodynamic noncircular journal bearing. A finite element method is employed to solve the Reynolds equation in static and dynamical states and the dynamical equations are solved using Runge-Kutta method. To analyze the behavior of the rotor center in the horizontal and vertical directi...

–A detailed investigation has done Redmud an Alluminium industrial waste product has done to study its feasibility for use in road constructions. In this study Redmud was stabilized with 2, 4, 6, 8,10and 12 percentages of lime and unconfined compressive strength, Split tensile strength and California bearing ratio tests were conducted at 1, 3, 7 and 28 days curing periods respectively. From the...

Objective Selection of sperm for intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) is usually considered as the ultimate technique to alleviate male-factor infertility. In routine ICSI, selection is based on morphology and viability which does not necessarily preclude the chance injection of DNA-damaged or apoptotic sperm into the oocyte. Sperm with high negative surface electrical charge, named “Zeta p...
