The production of rice and straw are directly proportional to each other becomes a major problem in disposal straw. Though there many suitable methods the reduction few bane environment. Thus this study focuses only on sustainable ecofriendly manner disposal. Insitu decomposition stubbles using TNAU biomineralizer is experimental which was carried out randomised block design with six Treatment ...

The objective of this study was to examine the effects of 6 days of emersion on nitrogen metabolism and excretion in the Chinese soft-shelled turtle, Pelodiscus sinensis. Despite having a soft shell with a cutaneous surface that is known to be water permeable, P. sinensis lost only ~2% of body mass and was able to maintain its hematocrit and plasma osmolality, [Na(+)] and [Cl(-)] during 6 days ...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Hemodialysis catheters are frequently complicated by dysfunction from fibrin sheaths. Previous studies of sheath disruption have methodologic limitations but suggest that the patency after disruption is short. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS A randomized, controlled, pilot trial was conducted to investigate the impact of angioplasty sheath disruption on...

The concentration of urea in renal medullary cells is high enough to affect enzymes seriously by reducing Vmax or raising Km, yet the cells survive and function. The usual explanation is that the methylamines found in the renal medulla, namely glycerophosphocholine and betaine, have actions opposite to those of urea and thus counteract its effects. However, urea and methylamines have the simila...

A simple and inexpensive procedure involving saponification and methylation in wet biomass, winterization and urea complexation in a sequential way has been developed in order to concentrate docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) from Crypthecodinium cohnii CCMP 316 biomass. Different urea/fatty acid ratios and crystallization temperatures were tested in the urea complexation method. ANOVA test revealed th...

The reduction of horse heart cytochrome c with ascorbate in the absence of urea and in its presence, 0 to 8 M, pH 7.0, has been investigated using a stopped flow technique and the absorptivity at 550 nm as the monitoring probes, and by using the rate of oxidizability with molecular oxygen. Reduction is found to be consistent with a mechanism involving (i) a urea-dependent equilibrium step betwe...
