An in vivo study has been carried out to evaluate the synergism of diltiazem and nifedipine on the antihypertensive activity and the effect of ketotifen fumerate and potassium nitrate on this phenomenon of synergism in rabbit. It has been found that the lowering of blood pressure by concurrent administration of diltiazem and nifedipine was not equal to the sum of lowering of blood pressure by i...

We present a detailed study of the structural behavior and polarization reversal mechanism in phase III of KNO3, an unusual ferroelectric material in which the nitrate groups rotate during polarization reversal. This material was one of several studied in a previous work O. Diéguez and D. Vanderbilt, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 056401 2006 where methods were described for computing curves of energy ve...

in order to study the effect of different levels of nitrogen and copper on yield and nutrients concentrations and nitrate in broccoli head, an experiment was conducted based on a factorial combinations of five levels of nitrogen (0, 100, 200, 300 and 400 kg/ha) and three levels of copper (0, 2.5 and 5 kg/ha) that were applied to soil as ammonium sulfate and copper sulfate respectively, in three...

Eggs, either dispersed or in masses, and second-stage juveniles (J2) of Meloidogyne incognita were exposed to different concentrations of ammonium ions in a nutrient agar medium upon which excised tomato roots were growing. Egg hatch and J2 penetration of the roots was slowed or inhibited at high (54 and 324 mg/liter) but not at low (1.5 and 9 mg/liter) concentrations of ammonium nitrate. The e...
