eight forage sorghum cultivars (sweet jumbo, nectar, chopper, pacific bmr, speed feed, kfs1, kfs2 and kfs3) were assessed to determine the most suitable traits carrying cultivar, through a randomized complete block design with four replications during 2003-2005. ammonium phosphate (basd on p2o5) was applied at 115 kg/ha and 183 kg/ha of nitrogen (urea-based) at four application times. six trait...

The activity of acetoacetyl-CoA (AcAc-CoA) ligase (E.C.6.2.1.16) in hepatocytes from rats was shown to be the same as the activity in homogenates of their livers. In hepatocytes treated with 25-hydroxycholesterol, AcAc-CoA ligase, 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase and rates of sterol synthesis were substantially decreased. Hepatocytes treated with high density lipoprotein (HDL...

The 10% amplitude calibration accuracy achievable with the current standard calibration techniques may be suucient to produce images with dynamic range of 10 3 , but achieving a dynamic range of 10 4 or higher with the MMA requires better than 1 percent accuracy in amplitude calibration. A self-calibration technique may be applied to improve images, but it may not be possible in all cases. Ther...

A well-defined amphiphilic core-shell polymer functionalized with bis(p-methoxyphenylphosphino)phenylphosphine (BMOPPP) in the nanogel (NG) core has been obtained by a convergent RAFT polymerization in emulsion. This BMOPPP@NG and the previously-reported TPP@NG (TPP = triphenylphosphine) and core cross-linked micelles (L@CCM; L = TPP, BMOPPP) having a slightly different architecture were loaded...

In most industrial processes that use electrical energy as a source of tension or current, requiring a power circuit to control of these physical states.This paper deals with observability problems of the parallel multi-cell chopper. This type of choppers is a new DC/DC static power converter. After modeling of the power converter, its hybrid dynamical behavior and properties are highlighted. T...

neutral bidentate n-o type complexe of vo(ii) has been synthesized through condensation of dpenicillamine,(d-h2pen), with bis(acetylacetonate)- oxovanadium(iv),[vo(acac)2], at neutralmedium . the established schiff base(no type) complex was characterized on the basis of ir andmass spectroscopy techniques.besides,d-h2pen binding behavior to[vo(acac)2] has been studiedin thermodynamic viewpoint u...

Chemical reaction of [Ru(III)(acac)(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)]ClO(4) (1) with 2-methylthioaniline, HL(1) in ethanol under basic conditions yielded three new complexes Ru(II)(acac)(2)(L(1b)) (1b), (L(1b) = 4-imino-3-(methylsulfanyl)cyclohexa-2,5-dien-1-one), Ru(III)(acac)(2)(L(1c)) (1c), (HL(1c) = N-(2-methylthiophenyl)formamide) and (acac)(2)Ru(II)(μ-L(1d))Ru(II)(acac)(2) (1d), (L(1d) = 1,4-bis(2-methylth...
