The preflood nitrogen (N) fertilizer sets the yield potential of the rice cultivars being grown and thus, its management is critical to obtaining profitable rice grain yields. The objectives of this study were to evaluate the ammonia volatilization loss and impact on rice yield when urea, Agrotain®, and ammonium sulfate were applied preflood and a flood established at 1, 5, and 10 days after N ...

Cowpeas grown in nutrient solutions, from which Ni had been removed by a ligand exchange technique, accumulated urea in most tissues. Urea levels were highest (up to 3.1 percent dry weight) in necrotic leaf tips. Urea accumulation in Ni-deficient cowpea tissues amounted to about 1 percent of the total N. The accumulation of urea was presumably associated with the catabolism of N compounds in ol...

A series of 1-aryl-3-(2H-chromen-5-yl)urea and 1-aryl-3-(chroman-5-yl)urea derivatives were designed, synthesized and evaluated for their inhibitory activities towards TNF-α production in lipopolysaccharide-stimulated THP-1 cells. The most active compound, 40g, inhibited TNF-α release with an IC50 value of 0.033 μM, which is equipotent to that of BIRB796 (IC50 = 0.032 μM).

An experiment was carried out to assess the effect of four nitrogen levels viz. T1 (full doze of urea i.e. 215 kg urea ha-1 at 15 DAT), T2 (full doze of urea at two equal splits, ½ at 15 DAT + ½ at 30 DAT), T3 (full doze of urea at two equal splits, ½ at 15 DAT + ½ at 55 DAT) and T4 (full doze of urea at three equal splits, 1/3 at 15 DAT + 1/3 at 30 DAT + 1/3 at 55 DAT) on morpho-physiological ...

YOUNG, DAVID B., AND HOWARD I-L ROSTORFER. BloodJEow and filtration rate responses to alterations in mal arterial osmolarity. Am. J. Physiol. 225(5) : 1003-1008. 19 73 .-By infusing small volumes of hypertonic or hypotonic solutions of NaCl, dextrose, or urea into the renal arteries of anesthetized dogs, renal arterial plasma osmolarity was changed over a range of + 56 to 34 mOsm/liter. Within ...

urea synthesised in the body.2 The discrepancy could result not only from the hydrolysis of urea in the gut but also from excretion of urea in the skin. A significant proportion of N released from hydrolysis of urea in the gut is also known to be recycled into urea or excreted as ammonia in the breath. In healthy adults with a normal protein intake about 20% of synthesised urea is not excreted ...

A series of new 4-(5-(3-cyano-4-isobutoxyphenyl)-4-methylthiazole-2-carbonyl)-N-(substituted phenyl)piperazine-1-carboxamides 8(a-e)/carbothioamides 8(f-j) were accomplished for biological interest by the simple addition of active functionalized arylisocyanates 7(a-e)/arylisothiocyanates 7(f-j) with 2-isobutoxy-5-(4-methyl-2-(piperazine-1-carbonyl)thiazol-5-yl)benzonitrile (4). Compound 4 was s...

desickling action of urea is a concentration-dependent event. McCurdy and Mahmood (5) were successful in 14 trials out of 24 with i. v. urea, even though they also used urea at blood levels below those specified. Furthermore, they suggested that their failures might be dose-related. I am surprised that they did so well for the i. v. modality, since they used urea only at 70 to 120 mg/100 ml ins...

9 The objectives of this study were to estimate variance components, genetic 10 parameters, EBV, accuracies, and rankings for nine ultrasound and carcass traits in a 11 multibreed Angus-Brahman population using three genomic-polygenic models and one 12 polygenic model (PM). The genomic-polygenic models used the complete GeneSeek 13 GPF250k SNP set (GPM), top 5% SNP (GPMR1), and 5% SNP evenly sp...
