The growth and yield of Egusi melon in response to application of an Organo-mineral fertilizer was investigated. The Organo-mineral fertilizer was Cow-dung generated from an Abattoir fortified with inorganic Nitrogen. The fertilizer had a pH of 6.1; 61.2 g kg Organic Matter; 35.5 g kg -1 -1 Organic Carbon; 3.6g kg Nitrogen; 372.54 mg kg Available Phosphorus and 14.8cmol kg -1 -1 -1 Exchangeable...

in order to evaluate the effect of sulphur fertilizer and nitrogen split application on yield and its components of sunflower (helianthus annuus l .),an experiment was carried out at the research field of birjand faculty of agriculture in 2008 as factorial in complete randomized block design with three replicates.the treatments were sulphur fertilizer in four levels ( 0 , 200 , 400 and 800 kg/h...

This study was conducted at the Agricultural Research Station, Hada El-Sham, King Abdulaziz University during 2006 and 2007 seasons. Four canola varieties, Callypso, Pactole, Sero-4 and Sero-6 varieties were tested under four nitrogen fertilizer rates (0.00, 92,138 and 184 kg N/ha) to determine the effect of nitrogen fertilizer on the canola (Brassica napus L.) seed yield, yield components and ...

Hulless barley kernels were sequentially abraded to achieve 4%, 8%, 16%, 24%, 32%, and 40% removal. Abraded fines, kernels, and ground kernels were stored at 35 degrees C and 75% relative humidity for 3 wk. Stored samples were extracted and the levels of oil, free phytosterols, tocopherols (Ts), and tocotrienols (T3s) were analyzed and compared with freshly abraded fractions. The results reveal...

OBJECTIVES (1) To evaluate the ototoxic potential of docusate sodium and mineral oil and (2) to compare the cerumenolytic properties of these agents to water and a commercially available product. STUDY DESIGN Prospective animal study. SETTING Docusate sodium and mineral oil are being used to dissolve cerumen plugs. Their ototoxicity has never been assessed. METHODS Nineteen guinea pigs re...

The objective of this work was to evaluate the effects of potassium (K) fertilization on vegetative growth, fruit production and leaf mineral content of olive tree (Olea europeae L.) under rainfed condition. Different fertilizer, techniques and rates of application were applied in 2003 on Chemlali olive. The potassium fertilizer used was potassium nitrate. The foliar fertilizer rates were 50 an...

in order to study the effects of integrative applications of chemical fertilizers and biofertilizers on grain yield and oil of borago officinalis under water deficit stress, a field experiment was conducted at kermanshah, iran, in 2011. experiment was arranged as split plot under a randomized complete block design with 3 replications. water deficit stress with four levels was applied as the mai...

BACKGROUND The effects of subclinical thyroid dysfunction on cardiac outcome are not well defined. METHODS To assess the relationship between mild thyroid dysfunction and the incidence of death in cardiac patients, we evaluated 3121 cardiac patients. Cardiac and overall deaths were considered. Four groups were defined: euthyroidism, subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), subclinical hyperthyroidis...

Methods The strategy utilized whole exome sequencing data to identify somatic non-synonymous mutations and then insilico algorithms to predict minimal epitopes encoding mutated amino acids for each patient specific HLA-allele. CD8-enriched PBL from each patient were stained with tetramers generated in house by a UV-exchangeable technique as previously described for A*02:01, A*03:01, A*11:01, B*...
