The role of normocapnic hypoxemia (arterial PO2 33 +/- 7 torr for 30 minutes) in asphyxial renal failure and its modification by maturation of renal function was studied in 50 chronically catheterized, unanesthetized lambs of 2-38 days postnatal age. Arterial pH and PCO2 did not change significantly in response to hypoxemia in these lambs. Normocapnic hypoxemia was associated with (1) significa...

in order to study of sodium nitroprusside(snp) application effect on growth indices and water use efficiency of kidney beans cultivars(akhtar and derakhshan) under water deficit stress, an experiment was conducted in split factorial based in randomized complete block design with three replications in bu-ali sina university research field at 2012. water stress treatments included vegetative stre...

Debaryomyces hanseniZopf isolated from the fructoplane of apples were found to be effective as biocontrol agent against rot of papaya caused by Ulocladium. chartarum(Pr.) Simm. The ability of D. hansenii to prevent infection of U. chartarum was lost when the antagonist cells were killed by autoclaving. Cell free culture filtrates of antagonist were unable to prevent disease incidence. Efficacy ...

OBJECTIVE Several provincial and federal bills have recommended various forms of menu labelling that would require information beyond just calories; however, the additional benefit of including sodium information is unknown. The objective of this study was to determine whether sodium information on menus helps consumers make lower-sodium choices and to understand what other factors influence th...

Inhibitors formed during pretreatment impair lignocellulose bioconversion by making enzymatic saccharification and microbial fermentation less efficient, but conditioning of slurries hydrolysates can improve fermentability sometimes also digestibility. Conditioning pretreated softwood using four industrial reducing agents (sodium sulfite, sodium dithionite, borohydride, hydrogen) was compared w...

Cromolyn sodium, a mast cell stabilizing agent, provides an immediate protective effect against the exercise-induced bronchoconstriction while being used before the exercise. However, cromolyn is ineffective in reversing asthmatic bronchospasm; it is used as a maintenance therapy and has a prophylactic role in chronic asthma. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of change in ba...
