the present study has assessed the effect of cola in increasing flower longevity of flower and delaying aging of cut alstroemeria ‘balance’. distilled water was used as control. traits of flower diameter, solution absorption ,anthocyanins, total soluble solids and chlorophyll were measured at 3 times and vase life was measured daily. based on the results, flower diameter, anthocyanins and chlor...

AIM To assess the impact of prenatal exposure to Maillard reaction products (MRPs) -rich diet and postnatal Coca-Cola consumption on metabolic status of female rats. Diet rich in MRPs and consumption of saccharose/fructose sweetened soft drinks is presumed to impose increased risk of development of cardiometabolic afflictions, such as obesity or insulin resistance. METHODS At the first day of...

BACKGROUND  Leptospirosis is a global zoonotic disease. Transmission of Leptospira from animals to humans occurs through contact with water contaminated with leptospire-containing urine of infected animals. However, the molecular basis for the invasiveness of Leptospira and transmission of leptospirosis remains unknown. METHODS  Activity of Leptospira interrogans strain Lai colA gene product ...

Introduction. Manufactured Colas are consumed universally as soft drinks. Evidence about the acid contents of Cola-beverages and its effects on teeth is rare. Aim. To assess (i) cola acidity and buffering capacity in vitro, (ii) tooth erosion after swishing with colas in vivo (iii) scanning electron microscopic effects on teeth of colas, and tooth-brush abrasion, and (iv) report a clinical case...

Resumen.—La morfología de la cola de muchas aves ha sido moldeada tanto por selección natural como por selección sexual. Algunos modelos de la aerodinámica de la cola predicen que las funciones relacionadas con el vuelo implican una presión de selección natural para tener colas con formas moderadamente ahorquilladas, lo que limitaría la tendencia de la selección sexual a generar diversidad morf...

Let COLk be the set of all graphs that are k-colorable. It is well known that COLk is NP-complete. It is also well known, and easy, to show that if a ≤ b then COLa ≤ COLb. If 3 ≤ a ≤ b then we also have COLb ≤ SAT ≤ COLa which is an insane reduction from COLb to COLa. In this paper we give a sane reduction from COLb to COLa.

This research was conducted to investigate the effects of peppermint (Mentha piperita) essence treatment (2000 mg L-1) and cola soft drink treatment separately and in combination with each other on the vase life and some physiological characteristics of gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii) cut flowers with factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design with 3 replications. Distilled water used ...
