iron deficiency in soil reduces the quality of durum wheat leading to fe deficiency in human. thus, this experiment investigated the effects of foliar application of nano-iron oxide (2 and 4 g l-1), iron chelate (edta), (4 and 8 g l-1), iron sulfate (4 and 8 g l-1), and the control on grain yield and quality, yield components, chlorophyll and carotenoids contents, peroxidase (pox), catalase (ca...

iron is one of the most important nutrients in the human diet. according to the high consumption of staple foods such as wheat, the deficiency of iron in these crops would lead to nutritional disorders and related complications. to identify microsatellite markers associated with wheat grain iron content,38iranian prevalent wheat genotypes were assessed using 30 pairs of genomic and est microsat...

in order to determine iron and lead content of seminal plasma in water buffalo and to study their associations with the semen characteristics, 54 semen samples were collected from 10 buffalo bulls. the semen characteristics were evaluated; its iron and lead content were estimated by atomic absorption spectrophotometer. the iron and lead content of the seminal plasma (mean ± sem) was recorded as...

background: no study has been conducted on iron requirements of broiler breeder hens until now. objectives: the purpose of the present study was to determine the iron requirement of broiler breeder hens using nonlinear models. methods: forty eight (cobb 500) broiler breeder hens were individually placed in galvanized wire cages. in order to depletion of hens iron reserved, hens were offered a s...

background there have been very few studies evaluating the close association between excess iron and cirrhosis; however, cirrhosis could be regarded as an iron-loading disorder. objectives in this study, the goal was to show the levels of the iron content in the liver tissue in certain types of cirrhosis. patients and methods in this 7 year study (2008 - 2014), in 1000 explanted livers, the amo...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE It is well known that patients with MS tend to have abnormal iron deposition in and around the MS plaques, in the basal ganglia and the THA. In this study, we used SWI to quantify iron content in patients with MS and healthy volunteers. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-two patients with MS were recruited to assess abnormal iron content in their basal ganglia and THA structur...

Hereditary hemochromatosis is a common iron-loading disorder found in populations of European descent. It has been proposed that mutations causing loss of function of HFE gene result in reduced iron incorporation into immature duodenal crypt cells. These cells then overexpress genes for iron absorption, leading to inappropriate cellular iron balance, a persistent iron deficiency of the duodenal...

The iron and vitamin C content of water spinach and rice samples from three sites in Vietnam were chemically analysed. The iron content of home-milled rice from Nghe An was higher than the iron content of machine-milled rice from Thai Binh and Hanoi. In addition, the iron content of cooked rice was lower than that of uncooked rice as iron was removed during the washing and rinsing of the rice p...

in the present study, effects of iron excess treatments (0, 250, 500 mg l-1) were evaluated in four rice varieties including shafagh, khazar, hashemi and sadri in pot condition. afterward, effects of iron excess (10 and 250 mg l-1) were further investigated in the most resistant variety (shafagh) in sand culture with yoshida nutrient solution. this experiment was arranged as factorial in rcbd w...
