A split plot 3 by 4 experiment was designed to examine the impact of 15-week variable levels of nitrogen fertilization (0, 90, 180 and 270 kg N/ha) on the characteristics of total flavonoids (TF), total phenolics (TP), total non structurable carbohydrate (TNC), net assimilation rate, leaf chlorophyll content, carbon to nitrogen ratio (C/N), phenyl alanine lyase activity (PAL) and protein conten...

Several nitrogen-containing dietary supplements were fed to chicks to study their effects on growth and tissue nitrogen products. An antibiotic mixture was added to the diet to determine its effect on the metabolism of nitrogenous compounds. In the first experiment, 2.0% protein equivalent was added as diammonium citrate (DAC) or isolated soy protein (ISP) to a balanced practical diet. DAC lowe...

The expression of genes required for the synthesis of molybdenum nitrogenase in Azotobacter vinelandii is controlled by the NifL-NifA transcriptional regulatory complex in response to nitrogen, carbon, and redox status. Activation of nif gene expression by the transcriptional activator NifA is inhibited by direct protein-protein interaction with NifL under conditions unfavorable for nitrogen fi...

Stable isotope analyses for paleodiet investigations require good preservation of bone protein, the collagen, to obtain reliable stable isotope values. Burial environments cause diagenetic alterations to collagen, especially in the leaching of the organic bone content. The survival of bone protein may be assessed by the weight % collagen, % carbon and % nitrogen yields, but these values are ach...

BACKGROUND The protein equivalent of nitrogen appearance is an indirect index commonly used to assess dietary protein intake in patients on CAPD. Moreover it has been suggested that the ratio between nitrogen appearance and dietary nitrogen intake (fractional urea synthesis) can predict nitrogen balance in uraemic patients. Several formulae to directly calculate the protein equivalent of nitrog...

determined the amino acid nitrogen content of deproteinized blood from advanced leukemia cases. They found that the amino acid nitrogeni imscreased or decreased in a fairly consistentmanner accoi-ding to the msunsber of white blood cells present-. \Talues for the non-protein nitrogen levels in the blood plasma of patients with acute, chronic lymphatic and chromsie granulocytie leukemia have Sit...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of substituting soybean meal for urea on milk protein fractions (casein, whey protein and non-protein nitrogen) of dairy cows in three dietary levels. Nine mid-lactation Holstein cows were used in a 3× 3 Latin square arrangement, composed of 3 treatments, 3 periods of 21 days each, and 3 squares. The treatments consisted of three different diets...

The seasonal and daily dynamics of the content nitrogen-containing compounds in leaves Hylotelephium triphyllum plants was studied. maximum total nitrogen, soluble protein free amino acids observed regrowth phase, followed by their reduction towards end growing season. characterized a high low morning hours. In H. , 23 2 amides were found. determined glutamine glutamic acid. 4 non-proteinogenic...

abstract the objective of this study was to determine the effect of psychrotrophic bacteria and somatic cells on the physicochemical characteristics of iranian ultrafiltered (uf) white cheese. milks with different numbers of psychrotrophic bacteria (1×106, 5×106 and 10×106 cfu/ml) and low somatic cell counts (scc, <2×105/ml) were selected and uf white cheese trials were produced. in a separate ...
