Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) –induced liver damage may be treated with chitosan oligosaccharide (COS), a small-molecular–weight excellent bioactivity and antioxidant potential. Hepatotoxicity induced by AFB1 single acute exposure (ASAE) has been theoretically established but the mechanism of toxicity in aquatic models less studied. In this paper, model injury Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) after ASAE...

original article   the objectives of this research were to study the correlations of heat strain score index (hssi) and values of wet-bulb globe temperature (wbgt) index with physiological parameters such as core body temperature, heart rate, and blood pressure of workers exposed to heat stress in a glass manufacturing plant in order to determine the reliability of hssi. this cross sectional st...

An alternative method for fertilizer spread pattern determination was developed based on predicting where individual fertilizer particles land on the ground, in contrast to the traditional method of collecting the particles in bins (ASAE Standard S341.2). A small broadcast granular fertilizer spreader (Lowery 300) was equipped with an optical sensor designed to measure the velocity and diameter...

This work presents the most exhaustive experimental characterization of thermal performance Haines 2 solar cooker available to date. Two cookers were tested side-by-side in Malaga, Spain, 36.7°N, between May 2021 and December 2021. A novel test procedure using empty pots a tilted plane with variable inclination gave useful information about influence altitude angle on performance, allowed ident...

The advantage of a sprinkler irrigation method is that it saves up to 50% water consumption during the application water, as compared any other surface system. To assess behavior method, wind drift and evaporation losses (WDEL) are often employed important parameters. predictive capacities four previous mathematical empirical models two data mining algorithms, namely, reduced-error pruning tree...
