Veira, D. M., Charmley, L. L., Charmley, E. and Lee, A. J. 2001. The effect of feeding soybean oil to mid-lactation dairy cows on milk production and composition and on diet digestion. Can. J. Anim. Sci. 81: 425–428. Mid-lactation Holstein cows were used to test the effect of feeding 3% soybean oil (SBO) on total mixed ration intake, apparent digestibility, milk production, and milk composition...

We studied the microbial flora in decomposing mangrove leaves in relation to changes in nitrogen and tannin levels, and in penaeid prawn assemblages. Senescent leaves of two mangrove species (Rhizophora apiculata and Avicennia marina) kept in nylon bags, were separately immersed for 80 days in five tanks full of mangrove water. A known amount of decomposing leaves was collected every ten days f...

During investigations into the volatility of female pheromones of A. walkerae in a Y-shaped olfactometer, engorged conspecific male ticks responded weakly both to female-contacted filter paper discs and to intact females enclosed in nylon bags. In tests in which female-contacted filter paper discs were separated from engorged male ticks by means of a screen, no aggregation was observed. However...

Preparation of silver nanoparticle by using leaf extracts of Terminalia catappa, its deposition on Nylon fabrics, and the modification with an addition of HDTMS have been conducted in this research. The samples prepared in this study were nylon cloth (N0), nylon cloth silver nanoparticles (N1), Nylon cloth HDTMS (N2), Nylon cloth − silver nanoparticles − HDTMS (N3), and Nylon cloth HDTMS silver...
