this experiment was conducted to determine the ame, amen, tme and tmen of beet pulp fed to male ostriches at  their 90 d of age. different levels of beet pulp (0, 15, 30 and 40%) were fed through replacements in the basal diet. for a determination of ame and amen using marker method, beet pulp was replaced in the basal diet at 40%. a number of 16 vs. 8 ostrich chicks were employed in each of th...

let d be a division ring with centre k and dim, d< ? a valuation on k and v a noninvariant extension of ? to d. we define the initial ramfication index of v over ?, ?(v/ ?) .let a be a valuation ring of o with maximal ideal m, and v , v ,…, v noninvariant extensions of w to d with valuation rings a , a ,…, a . if b= a , it is shown that the following conditions are equivalent: (i) b is a finite...

    M. and M.   Abstract: Existence and uniqueness of solution for singular 2-D systems depends on regularity condition. Simple regularity implies regularity and under this assumption, the generalized wave model (GWM) is introduced to cast singular 2-D system of equations as a family of non-singular 1-D models with variable structure.These index dependent models, along with a set of boundary co...

background: vitamin d has a wide range of physiological functions in skeletal and nonskeletal tissues which may play a role in many diseases. the aim of this study was to evaluate the recent evidence regarding the effects of vitamin d on several health outcomes in women including breast cancer, ovarian and endometrial cancers, hypertension, and  osteoporosis. materials and methods: we searched ...

background: memory impairment is a well-known effect of many benzodiazepine compounds which is mediated through their action on gamma-aminobutyric acid type a (gabaa) receptors. on the other hand, cannabinoids can affect learning and memory process through presynaptic modulation of the release of both excitatory glutamate and inhibitory gaba transmitters in brain regions involved in learning an...

Background and objectives: Tuberculosis (TB) is the major public health problem in the world. Each year there are 2-3 million deaths worldwide caused by TB. The increasing incidence of Multi Drug Resistance tuberculosis (MDR-TB) worldwide highlights the urgent need to search for new anti-tuberculosis compounds. It has been reported that medicinal plant, Dracocephalum kotschyi, possesse...

mechanical damages inflicted upon seeds in harvesting, handling and further subsequent processes are worth attention because they unfavourably influence the quality of seed. seed damage results in lower grain value, storage problems, and reduced seed germination and seedling vigor, resulting in a subsequent diminishing yield of future crops. the present experiments were conducted to determine t...

the fao penman - monteith (f-p-m) method is now broadly accepted as the standard for estimating the reference evapotranspiration (et0). the method is also now used for evaluating the temperature-based [blaney-criddle (b-c) and hargreaves-samani (h-s)] and radiation-based [jensen-haise (j-h) and turc (tc)] methods. the objective was to compare the et0 estimated by the b-c, h-s, j-h, tc methods w...

In the present paper, we give a new approach to Caristi's fixed pointtheorem on non-Archimedean fuzzy metric spaces. For this we define anordinary metric $d$ using the non-Archimedean fuzzy metric $M$ on a nonemptyset $X$ and we establish some relationship between $(X,d)$ and $(X,M,ast )$%. Hence, we prove our result by considering the original Caristi's fixedpoint theorem.

introduction: in continuation of recent development of possible c-x-c chemokine receptor type 4 (cxcr4) imaging agents, we report the development of a possible cxcr4 targeted therapy agent. methods: [153sm]labeled 1,1′-[1,4-phenylenebis(methylene)] bis-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclo -tetradecane ([153sm]-amd3100) was prepared using [153sm]smcl3 and amd-3100 for 24h at 50°c in acetate buffer.stability ...
