Controlled release urea (CRU) has been widely adopted to increase nitrogen (N) use efficiency and maize production, but the impacts can range widely depending on water availability in the soil. In an experiment using Zhengdan 958 (a popular summer maize hybrid), three levels of water treatments (adequate water condition [W3], which maintained soil moisture at about 75% ± 5% of the soil's field ...

EEG-microstates exploit spatio-temporal EEG features to characterize the spontaneous EEG as a sequence of a finite number of quasi-stable scalp potential field maps. So far, EEG-microstates have been studied mainly in wakeful rest and are thought to correspond to functionally relevant brain-states. Four typical microstate maps have been identified and labeled arbitrarily with the letters A, B, ...

The in vitro activity of four 2-nitropropene derivatives, 1-(3-benzothienyl)-2-nitropropene (N1), 1-(3-thienyl)-2-nitropropene (N2), 1-(5-bromo-2-thienyl)-2-nitropropene (N3) and 1-(4-bromo-2-thienyl)-2-nitropropene (N4), were tested against cultures of the parasite Trypanosoma cruzi. Cytotoxicity studies were performed using Vero cells. The blood trypomastigotes, amastigotes and epimastigotes ...

Sažetak Cilj ovog istraživanja bio je analizirati udio masti i sastav masnih kiselina u uzorcima M. biceps femoris istarskog i dalmatinskog pršuta. Analiziran je sadržaj zasićenih (SFA), mononezasićeniih (MUFA) i polinezasićenih (PUFA) masnih kiselina. Udio masti u istarskom pršutu bio je 7,45-21,12%, dok u dalmatinskom 9,49-21,29%. Sastav masnih kiselina istarskog i dalmatinskog pršuta nije se...

First we will prove a small lemma. Lemma 1. Let P be a p-Sylow subgroup of G. Let N be a normal subgroup of G such that P ⊂ N . Then all p-Sylow subgroups are in N . Proof. Let P̃ be a p-Sylow subgroup that is not P . Then by the Sylow Theorems, we know that gPg−1 = P̃ for some g ∈ G. Since P ⊂ N , and N is normal, we know that gPg−1 ⊂ N and hence P̃ ⊂ N . Thus all p-Sylow subgroups are in N . Now...
