the physicochemical properties of solute in solutions provide valuable information on solute –solvent, solute – solute and solvent – solvent interactions. the intermolecular forces between theliquids molecules and solvent molecules affect the viscosity of the solution. information regardinginter and intra molecular interactions can be obtained from volumetric, and viscometric data in asolute so...

The complete genome sequence of Nitrosomonas communis strain Nm2, a mesophilic betaproteobacterial ammonia oxidizer isolated from Mediterranean soils in Corfu, Greece, is reported here. This is the first genome to describe a cluster 8 Nitrosomonas species and represents an ammonia-oxidizing bacterium commonly found in terrestrial ecosystems.

This study was conducted to determine in vitro crude protein degradation (IVDP) parameters and effective crude protein degradability (EPD) of various feeds using the modified in vitro gas production (GP) technique. Feed samples were alfalfa hay, soybean meal, soybean, rapeseed meal, sunflower meal and fish meal. Rumen fluid was collected before the morning feeding from four rumen fistulated lam...

Three out of our five patients (cases 1-3) showed elevated ammonia serum levels. Very high ammonia levels have previously been described in patients with VE, even with normal liver function tests [21], and it has been hypothesised that the manifestations of VE are directly related to hyperammonaemia. VPA can increase the transport of glutamine across the mitochondrial membrane in the kidney, th...

ammonia is the chief excretory product in fishes. however, non-availability of enough of water in the habitat, may lead to the formation of urea, in fishes. in the present study, the possible role of urea formation to avoid the toxicity of ammonia under water-restricted condition was tested in channa gachua. circulatory urea and ammonia were estimated in the blood of the fishes and glutamate de...

In this work, reactive absorption of gases in aqueous electrolyte solutions has been investigated resulting in the development of a procedure in order to calculate the concentrations of ionic and molecular species in the liquid phase. Two duplicate experiments were conducted to investigate simultaneous reactive absorption of ammonia and carbon dioxide in partially carbonated ammonia solutio...

The effects of trimethylamine and ammonia on the buffering capacity of fish muscle and the change in the capacity during degradation were studied. The results obtained were as follows: 1) Trimethylamine and ammonia increased the buffering capacity on alkali side above pH 8 and 6 respectively. The latter was, although the effect was slight at lower pH range, the higher the pH the more effective ...
