Platelet function following inoculation of chemically induced carcinoma was evaluated in the rat. The original line of tumor (NGW1) was obtained using N-methyl-N-nitrosoguanidine. After trypsin homogenation a cell suspension of 0.3 X 10(6) viable tumor cells was injected subserosally in the cecum of each animal. Controls received injections of equal volumes of 0.9% NaCl solution or trypsin. The...

The effort taken to increase shallot production both in quality and quantity is use fertilizer. One type of organic fertilizer that will be used bokashi chicken manure. Bokashi a fermentation matter by inoculation EM4 which mixed culture beneficial microorganisms for plant growth such as Lactobacillus sp, photosynthetic bacteria, actinomycetes yeast. purpose this study was determine the effect ...

Glassy-winged sharpshooter, Homalodisca coagulata (Say), is an efficient vector of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf), the causal bacterium of Pierce's disease, and leaf scorch in almond and oleander. Acquisition and inoculation of Xf occur sometime during the process of stylet penetration into the plant. That process is most rigorously studied via electrical penetration graph (EPG) monitoring of insect f...

Large amounts of uranium, radium and radium products are redistributed throughout the environment owing to the use of phosphate fertilizers. Potential radiological impacts resulting from direct exposure, inhalation and ingestion of foods grown with fertilizers are discussed. This paper describes a simple method to measure exhalation rate of 222RN from phosphate fertilizers, clay and potatoes in...

One of the important and necessary practices for improving nutrients availability in sustainable agriculture is using microorganisms. Beside the negative effects of chemical fertilizers on the soil and human health, plant growth promoting rhizobacteria are known as an alternative to supply the organic nutrients of plants during the past two decades. Enriching soil fertility by eco-friendly meth...

Nutrient availability is an important factor in crop production, and regular addition of chemical fertilizers is the most common practice to improve yield in agrosystems for intensive crop production. The use of some groups of microorganisms that have specific activity providing nutrients to plants is a good alternative, and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) enhance plant nutrition by providin...

The dearth of fertile ‘virgin’ land and inaccessibility to standard chemical fertilizers, coupled with low tuber yields has made cassava cultivation unprofitable in parts of traditional cassava zone of West Africa. Field experiments were conducted at Ajibode and Alabata villages located in Ibadan (derived savanna zone), Nigeria to evaluate cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) root yield response ...

in order to examine the effects of biological and chemical fertilizers with the use of salicylic acid on the agronomic characteristics of corn as a factorial experiment in randomized complete block design with three replications at the agricultural research station in 2011 was boroujerd. factors examined included three levels of phosphorus fertilizer (0, 100 and 150 kg ha), two levels of biolog...

Fertilization is an important process in the growth of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L). Fertilizing usually used inorganic fertilizers. Using fertilizers continuously could degrading soil fertility. One efforts to replace was using endophytic bacteria as biofertilizers. Some are abundant healthy plant tissues. The aim this research obtain auxin-producing plants and determine effect seed immersion mic...

Controlledrelease fertilizers (CRFs) offer an excellent option to improve nutrients uptake by plants and reduce the environmental hazards due to excess release of chemicals. Polymer-coated fertilizers, compared to the other types of CRF, are by far the most intensively researched topic because of their great characteristics. Polymercoated fertilizers, which are less sensitive to the soil and en...
