this experiment was lay out in order to evaluate the effects of different biofertilizers on seed yield, protein and oil of rapeseed in iran. the experiment was a factorial design with three replications. treatments were four nitrogen biofrtilizers (control (n1), nitroksin (n2), azotobacter (n3) and supernitroplat (n4)) and three phosphate biofrtilizers ( control(p1), biosfer phosphate (p2) and ...

W e have been studying a novel, reductant-dependent lipid antioxidant system in r a t liver preparations. In a preceding communication we show tha t this is triggered by nucleoside triphosphates, possibly via a G-protein mechanism. I t is selectively antagonised by cromoglycate, a nucleoside diphosphokinase inhibitor. Lipid peroxidation (LPO) was initiated non-enzymatically with 0.2 mM ascorbat...

Phloracetophenone (2,4,6-trihydroxyacetophenone, THA) is a potent choleretic in the bile fistula rat, although the mechanism is unknown. In the present study, we examined how THA enhances bile secretion. Stepwise infusions of THA (1-4 micromol/min) in the isolated perfused rat liver resulted in an immediate and dose-dependent increase in bile flow (BF), which reached saturation. The increase in...

In order to study the effect of irrigation interval, N fertilizer and superabsorbent on yield and qualitative traits of sesame (Sesamum indicum L.), a split-split-plot experiment was coducted in a farm in Khusf of Birjand, Iran in 2009 on the basis of a Randomized Complete Block Design. The main plot was devoted to irrigation interval at three levels of 6, 12 and 18 days, the sub-plot was devot...

to determine the effects of pre-germinating of tubers and plant density on yield and some agronomic traits of six commercial potato cultivars, an experiment was carried out in ardebil agricultural research station for two years (2001 and 2002). the experiment was in a split split splot on the basis of completely randomized block design with three replications. pre-germination and non pre-germin...

Several different muscles from a population of thirty Large White male turkeys were s tudied by his tological and hi s toc he mical me thods, and a high incidence of hypercontracted fibers was noted . The fibers were charac terized in cross-sec tion by an apparent swelling, a rounded rather than polygonal shape and a homogenous appearance. They were eosi nophilic, positive to Gomori-trichrome a...

Primary cultures of rat cerebral cortical cells and cerebellar granule cells die by an apoptotic mechanism after more than 2 weeks in cultures in the absence of medium change and glucose supplement, a process termed age-induced apoptosis of cultured neurons. Our preliminary study has shown that age-induced apoptosis of cerebellar granule cells is protected by pretreatment with tetrahydroaminoac...

Introduction: Total hip arthroplasty (THA) after proximal femoral fixation is a challenging procedure due to possible hardware-related complications. Case presentation: A 78-year-old female with hip osteoarthritis had a proximal femoral osteotomy fixed using a blade plate in the same femur 41 years ago. A two-step approach was planned. After a challenging...
