The experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary vitamin K on survival, growth and tissue vitamin K concentrations of abalone, Haliotis discus hannai. Eight purified diets were formulated to provide a series of graded levels of menadione sodium bisulfite (MSB) (0-320 mgkg(-1) diet). The brown alga, Laminaria japonica, was used as a control diet. Abalone juveniles of similar si...

BACKGROUND Conflicting reports about the toxicity of Synedrella nodiflora (L) Gaertn (family Asteraceae), a plant traditionally used in Ghana for the management of epilepsy, abound in literature. The present study evaluates the effect of a 90-day continuous oral administration of a hydro-ethanolic whole plant extract of Synedrella nodiflora (SNE) in male Sprague-Dawley rats. METHODS The toxic...

to evaluate of quantitative and qualitative yield of two basil (ocimum basilicum l.) medicinal plants as affected by planting pattern and plant density, an experiment carried out in factorial arrangement basis on randomized complete block design with three replications. two varieties (green and purple) of basil, two planting patterns (single and double row) and four plant densities (40, 60, 80 ...

We solved the Frenkel-Kontorova model with the potential V (u) = − 2 |λ|(u− Int[u]− 1 2) 2 exactly. For given |λ|, there exists a positive integer qc such that for almost all values of the tensile force σ, the winding number ω of the ground state configuration is a rational number in the qc-th level Farey tree. For fixed ω = p/q, there is a critical λc when a first order phase transition occurs...

ABSTRACT- Soilless cultivation systems are used to attain higher performance, improve crop quality, conserve water and land, and protect the environment better. This study has attempted to use some agricultural wastes and organic matter, and management practices to optimize water holding capacity of cultural media, which are suitable for the growth of tomato seedlings (Solanum lycopersicum.). F...

In this paper, we will deal with the reversing technique to verifying the symbol table in Objective C compiler. The proposed technique reconstructs inputted Objective C program segments declarations part by using information of the symbol table inserted during the process of declaration analysis phase of the Objective C compiler, and therefore we can verify the completeness of symbol table desi...
