this study was carried out to determination of in vitro binding capacity of organic (wheat and barley) and inorganic (perlite) sources for mn, zn, cu, and fe. for this reason wheat and barley were analyzed chemically for moisture, protein, ash, and ether extract, total carbohydrate, ndf, adf, adl, crude fiber, viscosity, cellulose, and total dietary fiber. the in vitro mineral binding capacity ...

rapid expansion of the industrial sector adds more effluent into the agricultural land and in the vicinity of industry, which possesses the major threat of land contamination and environmental degradation. the present study was conducted to determine toxic metal concentration in fly ash and metal accumulation potential of the saccharum munja and cynodon dactylon, the two main grass species grow...

Surface water contains a large number of pollutants, particularly human pathogens, organic toxicants and heavy metals. Due to the toxic nature of heavy metals towards marine organisms, its removal from the environment has been a growing issue. The biosorption of heavy metal ions from surface water using fish scales has emerged as an environmentally friendly technique. This study assessed the de...

Two hundred and sixteen weanling gilts (6.65+/-0.08 kg) were used to determine the effects of decreasing supplemental concentrations of Zn, Cu, Fe, and Mn, and trace mineral source (inorganic vs. chelated) on growth performance, mineral status, and fecal mineral concentrations from weaning through development. The study was conducted over three trials with 72 pigs in each trial. Gilts were bloc...

Gray-green single crystals were obtained under high-pressure, high-temperature hydro-thermal conditions. A refinement of atom occupancies gave the composition Li(3.68)Cu(2+)Fe(3+)(Cu(0.55)Li(0.45))(2)Fe(2+) (0.15)(PO(4))(4). The structure is built from triplets of edge-sharing (Cu,Li)O(5)-FeO(6)-(Cu,Li)O(5) polyhedra, CuO(4) quadrilaterals and PO(4) tetra-hedra. In the (Cu,Li)O(5) polyhedra the...

This experiment was designed to determine whether dietary hemoglobin (Hgb) iron (Fe) could 0271-5317/$ – see fro doi:10.1016/j.nutres.2 4 Corresponding a E-mail address: p sustain normal Fe status in growing rats adequate or deficient in copper (Cu). Forty-eight weanling rats were divided into 3 groups, each consisting of 16 animals. One group was fed a diet containing 40 mg Fe/kg as ferrous su...
