Nowadays, the specie(s) belonging to the genus Cannabis are...

A method is described enabling the direct measurement of vincristine resistance in intact tissues in vivo by morphological study. Using the metaphase arresting properties of the drug, counts were made of escaping anaphase and telophase mitotic figures at a range of doses. The proportion of post-metaphase mitotic figures is called the post-metaphase index (PMI). In 95 primary intestinal tumours ...

Corn is typically The benefits of winter legumes as cover crops for corn (Zea mays planted early in the growing season, which forces an L.) are diminished by the earliness of corn planting in relation to early termination date. A termination date at least 14 d biomass and N production by the legu...

There has been a recent and significant increase in the use and availability of hemp seed oil products. These products are being marketed as a healthy source of essential omega fatty acids when taken orally. Although the health aspects of these oils is open to debate, the probability that oils derived from the hemp seed will contain delta9-tetrahyrdocannabinol (THC) is noteworthy. Recent additi...
