irrigation with distillery effluent, besides influencing crop yield, may have considerable impact on physical properties of soil because of its high salt and organic carbon contents. this experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effect of distillery effluent on hydraulic conductivity of a sandy loam alluvial soil and compare the effect of inorganic salts of potassium (k) with that of di...

nitration of potassium sulphamate was carried out using a mixture of sulphuric and nitric acid at -30 °c. the reaction time was optimized at the mole ratio of sulphuric to nitric acid of (1:3.5). the difference in product yield by changing the potassium to ammonium sulphamate was studied throughly. it was found that both the yield and purity of the product is better starting with potassium sulp...

abstract nitrogen is a key nutrient in plant growth and it is necessary for amino acid synthesis. sulfur has very important role in the biosynthesis of the alliums flavor and pungency precursors and potassium improve crop yield and quality. in order to study the effect of ammonium nitrate and potassium sulfate on concentration some of the mineral elements in onion (allium cepa l. azar shahr cv....

Two concepts are often currently applied to selenium in adult men in the United States: • Intake is generally enough to maximize blood glutathione peroxidase activities. • In such men, selenium supplementation does not reduce risk of prostate cancer. In contrast to these concepts, 30 healthy middle-aged men were studied to test the following hypothesis: 6-week supplementation of 200 μg of selen...
