This study focuses on the development of a method which makes it possible to remove a maximum amount of water from urine whilst keeping nutrient losses as low as possible. With this goal in mind, three different urine drying systems, so-called as batch, circulation and continuous systems, were designed and assessed in Can Tho University. Their operations are based upon the principle of solar di...

The case of a 33 year old male is reported. Hepatic inflammation and scarring were associated with deposits of mineral oil in portal triads. This is believed to be the first reported case of hepatic damage resulting from mineral oil accumulation. Possible sources of the oil are considered.

BACKGROUND Chronic renal failure (CRF) leads in the majority of instances to end stage renal disease (ESRD) requiring renal replacement therapy. Our interest was to evaluate the possible associations of HLA class I and class II antigens with ESRD independent of other factors, in Saudi Arabia population. METHODOLOGY A retrospective study to determine the HLA class I and class II polymorphisms ...

Enhanced efficiency nitrogen (N) fertilizers (EEFs) may improve crop recovery of fertilizer-N, but there is evidence that some EEFs cause a lag in crop growth compared to growth with standard urea. Biomass and mineral nutrient accumulation was investigated in rice fertilized with urea, urea-3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate (DMPP) and polymer-coated urea (PCU) to determine whether any delays in bi...

in order to investigate the effect of fertilizer types and irrigation regimes on quality criteria of three medicinal plants: lavander, rosemary and hyssop, an experiment was conducted at research field of faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, during two growing years of 2007-2009. a split plot design with three replications was used. treatments were three irrigation intervals ...

Riboflavin production in a culture of Ashbya gossypii was enhanced by adding mineral support with adsorbed soybean oil. When the support in an amount of 1 % to the amount of medium was added into the culture at agitation intensity corresponding to impeller rotation rate of 600 rpm, the attained riboflavin concentration was 2.5 g/L at the culture time of 4 days, i.e. 1.6 times higher than that i...
