succinea putris l. (mullousca: pulmonata:succineidae) were collected from the rice nurseries in mazandaran province during 2005. this species by feeding on rice seedlings leaves is another pest of growing rice in nursery. symptoms of early feeding are a row of circular continuous holes on lamina and eventually led to leave loss.the high density of snails in the nursery cause loss of large numbe...

We investigated the effects of different feeding regimens (1-pulse, stepwise, and continuous) of fermented food-waste liquid on polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production. The fermentation liquid was filtered with a membrane filter (pore size, 0.45 μm) to remove anaerobic microorganisms and solids and used as a carbon source for Cupriavidus necator. One-pulse feeding yielded the highest cell concentr...

A 10-week feeding experiment was conducted to evaluate the effects of feeding level, energy and protein maintenance requirement of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, fingerling (5.65±0.45cm; 1.42 ±0.25g) by feeding casein-gelatin based purified diet (45% CP; 3.67 kcal  g-1 GE) at six feeding levels 2-7% of BW/day in two equal meals, at 0800 and 1700 h, in triplicate, with 20 fish per trough fi...

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the history of oral and current contraception use, age at menarche, smoking, and breast feeding in relation to remission or persistence of low back pain and pelvic pain (LBPP) six months after delivery. Materials and Methodology: This study was a follow-up study of 639 women who reported LBPP during pregnancy. The respondents were divided into...

Background: Data on ovicidal activity of pediculicides are essential to determine the efficacy of commercial products, and to define application schemes. We present an adaptation of historical methods for rearing head lice, and describe their development ex vivo. Methods: Adult head lice were collected and fed on volunteers to obtain fertile eggs of known age. Two methods of feeding were applie...

introduction the compounds known as β-adrenergic agonists (β-aa) are organic molecules that have the ability to bind to β-adrenergic receptors (β-ar) and start biochemical reactions that will result in increase of accretion of skeletal muscle and reduction in accretion of fat. the anabolic responses to β-aa are temporary, with a peak time occurring during the first 14 days, after which there is...

Sources of fatty acids flowing to the liver may be used for triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis. Our objective was to quantify contributions of nonesterified fatty acids (NEFAs), de novo lipogenesis, and dietary fatty acids to VLDL-TAG in the fed state after meal feeding in healthy subjects (n = 6). The effect of substrate delivery rate was also determined by comparison with data obtained under a c...
