The dog had a history of abdominal pain and vomiting of five days duration. An umbilical hernia had been surgically repaired years earlier. The dog was depressed, lethargic, and had painful palpations of the cranial abdomen. Body temperature (39"C), heart rate (1 10 bpm) and respiratory rate (44 breathdmin.) were normal. Heart sounds were clearly audible on the right side and muffled on the lef...

the objective of this research is to identify arabidopsis thaliana genes encoding acid phosphatases induced by phosphate starvation. multiple alignments of eukaryotic acid phosphatase amino acid sequences led to the classification of these proteins into four groups including purple acid phosphatases (paps). specific primers were degenerated and designed based on conserved sequences of paps isol...

introduction: the impact of chromium exposure was studied on liver, kidney, testis, spleen, cerebrum and cerebellum of male wistar rats (80-100 g body weight). material & method: it was observed that treatments of rats with chromium (i.p. at a dose of 0.8 mg / 100 g body weight per day) for a period of 28 days caused significant increase in chromium content while declining the body weight along...

backgrounds and aims: the purpose of this study was to examine the effects of potassium, sodium and zinc metal ions on ammonium sulfate fraction of acid phosphatase activity of orange fruit. materials and methods: acid phosphatase was extracted and purified from orange fruit and then various samples as well as a control sample were prepared in vitro. in addition to substrates, ions of potassium...

Abstract An algebraic proof is presented for the finite strong standard completeness of Involutive Uninorm Logic with Fixed Point ( $${{\mathbf {IUL}}^{fp}}$$ IUL fp ). It may provide a first step towards settling problem $${\mathbf {IUL}}$$ , pos...

We examine a logical foundation for the intersection and union types assignment system (IUT). The proposed system is Intersection and Union Logic (IUL), an extension of Intersection Logic (IL) with the canonical rules for union. We investigate two different formalisms for IUL, as well as its properties and its relation with minimal intuitionistic logic.

Backgrounds and Aims: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of potassium, sodium and zinc metal ions on ammonium sulfate fraction of acid phosphatase activity of orange fruit. Materials and Methods: Acid phosphatase was extracted and purified from orange fruit and then various samples as well as a control sample were prepared in vitro. In addition to substrates, ions of potass...

effects of gibberellic acid (ga) and abscisic acid (aba) on dormant and after-ripened wheat seed, cultivar rl4137, were studied. the aim of the study was to evaluate the effects of seed after-ripening in comparison with gibberellin application on breaking of seed dormancy. moreover, the effect of abscisic acid on dormancy induction was also evaluated. acid and alkaline posphatase activity of se...
