An experiment was conducted to study wheat grain protein increasing through foliar application of Nitrogen afterflowering. The RCBD design was analysed with three replications and four N-treatments as foliar application as(N0=0, N1=4kg.ha-1 Urea, N2=8kg.ha-1 Urea, N3=4kg.ha-1 Ammonium Sulfate). Results showed that seed proteincontent increased significantly by foliar application of Nitrogen. Da...

Whole soybeans serve as one of the main sources of protein in ruminant nutrition. Different processing methods have been employed for ruminal protein protection. The present study was conducted to determine the effects of microwave irradiation [900 W; 2, 4 and 6 min] on quality, ruminal degradability and estimated in vitro intestinal digestibility of availability soybean crude protein....

background: the witches’ broom disease of lime caused by candidatus phytoplasma aurantifolia, is the most devastating disease of acidian lime in the southern parts of iran. objectives: at present, no effient method has been developed for controlling the disease, therefore quarantine approaches such as early detection and subsequent eradication of infected trees is very important. toward this ...

a field experiment was performed in order to evaluate the effects of irrigation and application of k fertilizer on seed storage proteins  in chickpea, ilc-482 cultivar. experiment was performed in factorial using randomized complete block design with three replications. in this experiment, two factor consist of irrigation in three levels (i1= non irrigation and i2= irrigation in flowering stage...

important thermodynamic parameters including denaturant equilibrium m values (meq) and heat capacity changes (δcp) can be predicted based on changes in solvent accessible surface area (sasa) upon unfolding. crosslinks such as disulfide bonds influence the stability of the proteins by decreasing the entropy gain as well as reduction of sasa of unfolded state. the aim of the study was to develop ...

over the years, the use of plastics has complicated the problem of disposal of solid wastes. one strategy to reduce plastic waste is the use of biodegradable plastics. a group of these plastics are polyhydroxyalkanoates (phas). to date more than 250 different microorganisms are known to synthesize and accumulate pha. most pseu-domonas strains are able to accumulate mcl-pha. in previous studies,...

cow’s milk whey consists of many protein components and some of them are antigens to human and known to modulate immune responses. enzymatic hydrolysis is a useful method to modify proteins with allergenicity. the objective of this study was to identify whether the in vitro enzymatic hydrolysis could reduce the allergenicity of whey protein concentrates (wpc). in  this study, wpc were hydrolyze...

spirometry has been used as a common diagnostic test in asthma. most of the patients with a mild asthma have a fev1 within normal range. hence, other diagnostic methods are usually used. the aim of this study was to evaluate whether eosinophil cationic protein (ecp) could be an accurate diagnostic marker of mild asthma. in this study diagnosis of asthma was made according to internationally acc...

a key factor in spermatogenesis and disorders associated with this protein have been recognized to be related to male infertility. although it was suggested that this protein could have different functions during germ cell development, no studies have been conducted to uncover the mechanism of this potential function yet. here, we analyzed the expression pattern of rbmy protein isoforms in test...
