Organic pesticides were developed during and after World War II to displaced inorganic and metal organic substances such as sulfur, arsenic, sodium fluoride and boric acid, which used by society for thousands of year. Some of these pesticides were OCPs which are organic compounds that contain chlorine. These OCPs were preferred because of their effective against the target pests even if only sm...

The discovery and certain aspects of the biosynthesis of dipicolinic acid (pyridine-2,6-dicarboxylic acid) in exudates of germinated spores and in intact spores of aerobic bacilli have been recently reported (Powell, 1953; Perry and Foster, 1955). In the latter paper it was noted that maximum recovery of dipicolinic acid from intact spores necessitated an initial treatment with hot dilute inorg...

This study was aimed at investigating the bioefficacy of organic compared with inorganic manganese (Mn) for eggshell quality. An amino acid-Mn complex or Mn sulfate monohydrate was used as the organic or inorganic Mn source. A total of six hundred forty-eight 50-wk-old layers (Hy-Line Brown) were divided into 9 groups; each group consisted of 6 replicates with 12 layers each. The feeding trial ...

Saygin and Decker [6, 7] have reported that the formation of hydroxamic acids in solutions containing ATP, MgCl2, hydroxylamine and an acidic acceptor (acetic acid or amino acids) is not accompanied by the release of inorganic phosphate from ATP. Using an ion exchange chromatography method developed by Lowenstein [8] to separate the various components of such reaction mixtures, we now show that...

An attempt has been made to partially characterize the substance responsible for the rhythmic incorporation of 35S (inorganic sulfate) in the course of the cell cycle in early Limnaea embryos. This trichloroacetic acid (TCA) insoluble substance is partly pronase sensitive, and dissociable into two fractions after treatment with NaCl. One of these remains TCA-insoluble while the other is TCA sol...

Erythrocyte ghosts have been found to be peculiarly useful for the study of the metabolism of nucleosides (1, 2). Preparations made by osmotic hemolysis were found to be unable to metabolize glucose. Adenosine, however, caused a disappearance of inorganic phosphate from ghost plasma suspensions with an equivalent production of organic acid-soluble ester phosphate. There was a simultaneous disap...

The study was aimed to determine the effect of soil ameliorant and inorganic fertilizers on nodulation and yield of some soybean varieties. Study was conducted under greenhouse condition in acid soils. Results revealed that all the tested varieties were compatible with native rhizobium at both study areas and showing the formation of nodules. A positive correlation was reported between the numb...

23 New electrode materials based on composite inorganic redox material–organic conducting polymer for 24 electroanalysis of dopamine were developed. The composite inorganic–organic coatings based on Prus25 sian blue (PB) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) have been prepared by electrochemical 26 methods onto gold disk microelectrode arrays. Both insoluble and soluble forms of PB were ...

Two novel metal pyridylmethylphosphonates, namely, [Co(4-pmp)] (1) and [Cu(4-pmp)(H2O)] (2), (4-pmpH2 = 4-pyridylmethylphosphonic acid), have been hydrothermally synthesized and characterized by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. In compound 1, each {PO3C} tetrahedron is corner-shared with three {CoNO3} tetrahedra and vice versa, thus f...

The binding of alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid ((14)C-NAA) to pelletable particulates from corn (Zea mays) coleoptiles was found to be influenced by inorganic solutes. La(3+), Ca(2+), and Mg(2+) increased the binding whereas monovalent cations did not. The concentrations of CaCl(2) which increased auxin binding were similar to those which inhibited coleoptile elongation in the presence of auxin. T...
