In the current study the influence of weight percentage of HIPS, weight percentage of CNT and hardener content on damping 1st and damping 2nd properties of epoxy/HIPS/CNT hybrid composite wase valuated. Mixture design methodology was employed to generate mathematical models for predicting damping 1st and damping 2nd behaviors of new mentioned hybrid nanocomposite as function of physical factors...

Abstract Background Spodoptera frugiperda (JE Smith), or fall armyworm, is one of major migratory agricultural pests with a wide range hosts. The effect different hosts (maize and kidney bean) on the growth reproduction S. were investigated using age-stage, two-sex life table method. Results results showed that could complete its entire cycle both hosts, albeit significantly development reprodu...

Mixed intercropping of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) with faba bean (Vicia faba L.) was compared with sole cropping for three growing seasons 2001–2003) at Holetta Agricultural Research Centre, in the central highlands of Ethiopia. The treatments were sole barley (125 kg ha−1), sole aba bean (200 kg ha−1) and an additive series of 12.5, 25, 37.5, 50 and 62.5% of the sole seed rate of faba bean mi...

Profilin from common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris 1.) was purified to homogeneity by poly-i-Pro affinity chromatography and gel filtration. The hypocotyl and symbiotic root nodule protein was detected as a single isoform with a 14.4-kD molecular mass and an isoelectric point of 5.3. Partia1 amino acid and DNA sequencing of a full-length cDNA clone confirmed its identity as profilin. An antibody gen...

background: mixed cereals and legumes products enhance protein quality. this study has been conducted to compare the protein value of two homemade foods (a mixture of beans and rice and a mixture of vetch and rice) with a commercial baby food (wheat- based cerelac) in rats. methods: an experimental study has been conducted on 80 male rats, which divided into 8 subgroups. five different diets in...
