Turpun besin maddesi ihtiyacının karşılanması ve yüksek kalitede ürün alınmasında kükürt(S) önemli bir yer tutmaktadır. Biyokömür uygulamaları toprak kalitesini bitki gelişimini olumlu etkilemektedir. Çalışma; tarım potansiyeline sahip olan İç Anadolu’da alan Konya kireçli topraklarında yetiştirilen turp bitkisinin kükürtlü gübre isteğinin belirlenmesi amacıyla yürütülmüştür. Çalışmada biyokömü...

Sleep spindles and spike-wave discharges are thought to originate from the same thalamic pacemaker. In the present work it is investigated whether sleep spindles and spike-wave discharges are also sensitive for the same drugs. Adult male WAGIRij rats were chronically implanted with frontal and occipital EEG electrode pairs. Rats were intraperitoneally injected with clonidine (0.00625 mgkg), phe...

Solanum nigrum was found to proliferate in sediments with high levels of metal pollution. The effect of Zn on plant growth and tissue metal accumulation was assessed. The response of the plant to the inoculation with four different isolates of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) (Glomus sp. BEG140, Glomus claroideum, Glomus mosseae and Glomus intraradices) was studied. While the isolates of AMF ...

The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary vitamin K on survival, growth and tissue vitamin K concentrations of abalone, Haliotis discus hannai. Eight purified diets were formulated to provide a series of graded levels of menadione sodium bisulfite (MSB) (0-320 mgkg(-1) diet). The brown alga, Laminaria japonica, was used as a control diet. Abalone juveniles of similar si...

Analysis of the effects of cyclosporine A (25-28 mgkg(-1)) and/or methotrexate (0.1 mgkg(-1)) treatments on dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) and prolyl oligopeptidase (POP) activities and on algesic response in two distinct status of murine macrophages (Mphis) was undertaken. In resident Mphis, DPPIV and POP were affected by neither individual nor combined treatments. In thioglycolate-elicited M...

The objective of this research work is to solve the problem due iron deficiency in soybean crop. Iron chlorosis a widespread agricultural crop, especially alkaline and calcareous soils resulting complete crop failure. To eradicate problem, methodology adopted was conducted with factorial experimental design different doses (0, 2.5, 5 7.5 mgkg-1) FeDTPA 15 types soil categorized into low (L1-L5)...

Lichens are widely used to assess the atmospheric pollution by heavy metals and radionuclides. However, few studies are available in publications on using lichens to qualitatively assess the atmospheric pollution levels. The paper presents research results applying epiphytic lichens as bio-monitors of quantitative atmospheric contamination with uranium. The observations were conducted during 2....

Antagonism of the discriminative stimulus properties of 10 mglkg cocaine was studied in rats by use of the dopamine Dl antagonist SCH 23390 and the Dl antagonist haloperidol. Whereas SCH 23390 and haloperidol were by themselves unable to antagonize the cueing properties of cocaine, the combination of both dopamine antagonists resulted in a complete blockade of the cocaine cue. In the presence o...

BACKGROUND Heliotropium indicum is used as a traditional remedy for hypertension in Ghana. The aim of the study was to evaluate the anti-glaucoma potential of an aqueous whole plant extract of H. indicum to manage experimentally-induced glaucoma. METHODS The percentage change in intraocular pressure (IOP), after inducing acute glaucoma (15 mLkg(-1) of 5 % dextrose, i.v.), in New Zealand White...
