this experiment was lay out in order to evaluate the effects of different biofertilizers on seed yield, protein and oil of rapeseed in iran. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were four nitrogen biofrtilizers (control (n1), nitroksin (n2), azotobacter (n3) and supernitroplat (n4)) and three phosphate biofrtilizers ( control(p1), biosfer phosphate (p2) and ...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: dry weight (dw) is an important concept related to patients undergoing hemodialysis. conventional method seems to be time consuming and operator dependent. bio impedance analysis (bia) is a new and simple method reported to be an accurate way for estimating dw. in this study, we aimed to compare the conventional estimation of dw with mea...

the objective of this research is to investigate the effect of four additives including iron slag (is), works debris (wd), fly ash (fa), and lime kiln dust (lkd) on the biochemical properties of biosolids produced at mangere wastewater treatment plant (mwwtp), auckland, new zealand. all these additives are homogenously mixed in the laboratory with biosolids at various percentages with and witho...

in this research, first, kinematic and dynamic equations of a 4-dof 3-link robotic finger are derived using denavit-hartenberg convention and lagrange’s formulation. to model the muscles, several springs and dampers are placed between the finger links. then, two advanced controllers, namely adaptive-robust and adaptive-neural, which can control the robotic finger in presence of parametric uncer...

Lignocellulose—a major component of biomass available on earth is a renewable and abundantly available with great potential for bioconversion to value-added bio-products. The review aims at physio-chemical features of lignocellulosic biomass and composition of different lignocellulosic materials. This work is an overview about the conversion of lignocellulosic biomass into bio-energy products s...

Keeping in view, the challenges concerning agro-ecosystem and environment, the recent developments in biotechnology offers a more reliable approach to address the food security for future generations and also resolve the complex environmental problems. Several unique features of cyanobacteria such as oxygenic photosynthesis, high biomass yield, growth on non-arable lands and a wide variety of w...

Resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF) resin is a kind of excellent exterior-grade wood structural adhesive, which can be conveniently cold-set for various applications. In order to decrease the production cost, pyrolysis bio-oil from renewable bioresources was used to replace resorcinol to synthesize the bio-oil-resorcinol-aldehyde (BRF) resin. The effect of replacing resorcinol with bio-oil on the prop...

Anorganic bovine bone matrix (Bio-Oss®) has been used for a long time for bone graft regeneration, but has poor osteoinductive capability. The use of recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein-2 (rhBMP-2) has been suggested to overcome this limitation of Bio-Oss®. In the present study, heparin-mediated rhBMP-2 was combined with Bio-Oss® in animal experiments to investigate bone formation perf...

over the past two decades, the role of intellectual property rights in all areas of science and technology has exploded globally– primarily due to the rules prescribed by the world trade organization’s trips and by bilateral/regional trade agreements. the trips agreement obligates all wto member countries to adopt and enforce minimum standards of intellectual property rights. the trips agreemen...
