in order to study the effect of intercropping of corn with bean and bitter vetch and farmyard manure (fym) on corn nutrition, a factorial experiment was carried out on the basis of randomized complete blocks design with three replications. the factors were types of intercropping systems at levels of sole bean, bean+corn, sole bitter vetch, bitter vetch+corn, sole corn, and fym at levels of 0, 3...

this study was conducted to evaluate the relative bioavailability value of mn proteinate and mn oxide in broiler chicks. a total of 432 day-old cobb 500 commercial male broiler chicks were randomly distributed into nine treatments with eight replicate pens of six chicks each. in a completely randomized design experiment with a 2×4 factorial arrangement of two manganese sources (proteinate and r...

concentrations of eight metals namely, cr, mn, fe, co, ni, cu, zn and pb were examined in the surface sediments of discharge channels of six industries in lagos using x-ray fluorescence spectrometry.these channels drain into the isolo canal which empties into the lagos lagoon and eventually into the atlantic ocean. this study was conducted to detect any contamination levels within the sediment...

zno and mn-zno nano powders were prepared by the sol-gel auto combustion method. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), energy dispersive analysis of x-ray (edx) and scanning electron microscopy (sem). structural and morphological properties of nano particles were investigated and the average crystalline size of zno and mn-doped zno was obtained 44 and 51 nm, respectively. ...

in this study, the effect of four citrus rootstocks {sour orange (citrus aurantium), bakraeii (c. reticulata × c. aurantium, mexican lime (c. aurantifolia) and volkamerlemon (c. volkameriana)} on orlando tangelo leaf chlorophyll content and mineral element concentrations (n, p, k, ca, na, mg, fe, zn, mn, cl, cu, and b) have been evaluated in completely randomized design with four replications. ...

The purpose of the study was to investigate the mineralogical and Heavy Metals (HMs) present in the granite mining soils in Chimakurthy, India. The mineral exploration of mining soils were identified by X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD) pattern analysis. However, the morphological features and quantitative HMs were detected by Scanning Electron Microscopy/Energy Dispersed Spectroscopy (SEM/...

a study of the atmospheric particulate size distribution of total suspended particulate matter(tspm) and associated heavy metals concentrations has been carried out for the urban part of sarajevo city,bosnia and herzegovina. urban particles (n=150) were collected using a high volume air sampler equippedwith a 6-stage impactor. apart from fe which has been determined by flame atomic absorption s...
