In this study, the effects of various concentrations of NaCl and KCl and partial replacement of NaCl withKCl on the growth characteristics of L. monocytogenes were evaluated. It was found that L. monocytogenescan grow in the presence of 1-9% NaCl and 1-11% KCl. The higher the concentration of salt used, the longerthe lag phase induced. In addition, it was observed that L. monocytogenes tolerate...

The presence of betaine, a quaternary ammonium compound, at a concentration (0.5 molar) reported to accumulate inside Aphanothece halophytica in response to increasing external salinity, slightly promoted ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) carboxylase activity. KCl at 0.25 molar inhibited RuBP carboxylase about 55%. Betaine relieved the inhibition by 0.25 m KCl and the original uninhibited activi...

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of high concentrations of KCl in releasing noradrenaline from sympathetic nerves and its actions on postsynaptic alpha-adrenoceptors. We measured the isotonic contractions induced by KCl in the isolated rat anococcygeus muscle under different experimental conditions. The contractile responses induced by KCl were inhibited by alpha-adre...

The interaction between UN and CdCl2 in the LiCl–KCl molten eutectic was studied at 1023 K. chlorination monitored by sampling recording redox potential of medium. At K with cadmium chloride proceeds completely results formation uranium chlorides. melts LiCl–KCl–UCl3 or LiCl–KCl–UCl4 compositions can be obtained end experiment depending on presence metallic reaction zone. higher concentration c...

Increased public awareness of the importance availability healthy agricultural products, including vegetables, must be supported by cultivation techniques and innovations. Cultivation mustard greens so far still relies on use inorganic fertilizers as an effort to increase crop productivity. The continuous excessive not only has a negative impact environment but also health due presence residues...

The Lamadian oilfield has entered the stage of strong water cut after natural energy development and conventional flooding development. use asphalt binder for profile control can not only adjust contradiction between layers, expand swept volume, but also improve oil displacement efficiency. field test achieved certain results. main layer in a thickness serious vertical plane heterogeneity. Afte...

The role of two oxygen sources, and water vapor, in the initiation KCl-induced high-temperature corrosion was addressed by studying high-alloyed commercial materials at 550 °C. differentiation between sources implemented with 18O-enriched 16O2. Based on results, solid-solid reaction KCl(s) protective oxide alloy surface appeared to be more responsible for than gas-solid KCl(g) oxide. Water invo...
