Relationships between soil factors and vegetation types in playa of Damghan was investigated. Six vegetationtypes including Artemisia.sieberi, Arundo. sp, Artemisia.sieberi-Peganum.harmala, Alhagi.cammelerom,Artemisia.sieberi-petropyron.sp, Tamarix.passerinoides-Halocnemum strobilaceum. One bare land was recognized inthe study area and the research was conducted within mentioned types. Canopy p...

The effect of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) on the initiation of gastroduodenal carcinogenesis induced by N-methyl-N'-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) was examined under the conditions with and without sodium chloride. Male Wistar rats were given drinking water containing MNNG (100 mg/liter) and one of the following diets during the first 20 weeks ad libitum. Group 1 was given basal diet; group 2, d...

Runoff leads to the leaching of soil nutrients, transports the topsoil particles and deposits the sediments in water reservoirs. Recognition of different environmental factors affecting the runoff properties and water infiltration depth has a great importance concerning soil for the integrated management of watershed and the distinguishment of complex hydrological processes. Thus, this research...

The adverse effects of exchangeable sodium on soil hydraulic conductivity (K) are well known, but at present only sodicity and total electrolyte concentration are used in evaluating irrigation water suitability. In arid areas, high sodicity is often associated with high dissolved carbonate and thus high pH, but in humid areas high sodicity may be associated with low pH. To evaluate the effect o...

A novel antibiotic, DC-86-M was isolated from the culture broth of a new isolate, DO-86, from the soil sample collected in Machida-shi, Japan. The producing organism was found to belong to Streptomycetes, for it formed aerial mycelia and chains of spores and its cell wall analyses revealed the presence of LL-diaminopimelic acid. The morphological, cultural and physiological characteristics of t...

Calcium (Ca) supplements, especially Ca carbonate (CaCO3), are the main alternative sources of dietary Ca and an important part of a treatment regimen for osteoporosis, the most common metabolic bone disorder of aging and menopause. In a female ovariectomized (OVX) rat model for studying postmenopausal osteoporosis, we tested the hypothesis that a small compared with a large particle size of Ca...
