Pistachio suffers from some physiological disorders such as fruit abscission, endocarp lesion, blankness, non-split, early-split and deformed nuts. In this experiment, the effects of calcium nitrate (2 gr/lit), calcium chloride (2 gr/lit), boric acid (200 ppm) and their combination treatments were investigated on physiological disorders of ‘Kaleh-Ghoochi’ pistachio. Foliar application was appli...

Abstract The research on novel high-temperature resistant primary explosives is an inevitable trend to adapt the development of weapons. In this paper, high temperature explosive cadmium azide was prepared from sodium and nitrate tetrahydrate by hydrothermal reaction. Then, storage performance tested cook-off test, influence analyzed in combination with microscopic morphology, crystal structure...

In this work, we present the synthesis and characterization of CdS nanoparticles suitable for semiconductor applications using a simple and manufacturable process. The solution based process was synthetized at room temperature using cadmium nitrate tetrahydrate (Cd (NO3)2 .4 H2O 0.1 M) and a Thioacetamide (C2H5NS (TA) 0.5 M) as source of cadmium and sulfur, respectively. The effect of the conce...

Pollen viability and its germination capability for fruit set in are almond and peach essential. To optimize the pollen culture medium of almond and peach and selection of best medium, the present study was carried out with 48 different culture media containing different compositions including diverse levels of boric acid (0 and 100mg/1), calcium nitrate (0,150and300mg/l،), magnesium sulphate (...

Hydrophobic zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) with the chabazite (CHA) topology are synthesized by incorporating two distinct imidazolate links. Zn(2-mIm)0.86 (bbIm)1.14 (ZIF-300), Zn(2-mIm)0.94 (cbIm)1.06 (ZIF-301), and Zn(2-mIm)0.67 (mbIm)1.33 (ZIF-302), where 2-mIm = 2-methylimidazolate, bbIm = 5(6)-bromobenzimidazolate, cbIm = 5(6)-chlorobenzimidazolate, and mbIm = 5(6)-methylbenzimida...

The oral toxicity of boron compounds to the Argentine ant, Linepithema humile (Mayr), was evaluated in laboratory tests. The ants were provided 25% sucrose water containing 0.5 and 1% boric acid, disodium octaborate tetrahydrate, and borax. Lethal times of these solutions were a function of the concentration of boron. In field tests, the ants showed no discrimination between disodium octaborate...

The purpose of this study was to test a gallium nitrate solution, a resorption inhibitor, employed as a root canal dressing in teeth submitted to late replantation. Thirty maxillary right central incisors of rats were avulsed and kept dry for thirty minutes. The teeth were instrumented and the root surfaces were treated with 1% hypochlorite solution followed by application of 2% sodium fluoride...

Calcium (Ca(2+)) serves as a critical messenger in a number of adaptation and developmental processes. In plants, CBL family represents a unique group of calcium sensors that decodes calcium signals. Several CBL members have been functionally characterized in the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana, but the role of CBL7 remains unknown. Here, we report that CBL7 is involved in the regulation of lo...
