the aim of this research was determination of nutritive value of cressa cretica with gas test method, in vivo digestibility and degradability with nylon bag method in three phenological stages. the amount of crude protein decreased significantly in seeding stage. but the amount of ndf and adf increased in seeding stage. the degradability of dry matter and rapid and slowly degradable fractions d...

in this work, a novel method is described for the preconcentration of pb2+, cd2+ and zn2+ ions in environmental samples using uniform silanized mesopor (lus-1) functionalized by ethylenediamine groups as a new extractant. the determination of ions is done by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (icp-oes). the extraction time and efficiency, ph and amount of adsorbent, minimu...

It is known that asset exchange models with symmetric interaction between agents show either a Gibbs/log-normal distribution of assets among the agents or condensation of the entire wealth in the hands of a single agent, depending upon the rules of exchange. Here we explore the effects of introducing asymmetry in the interaction between agents with different amounts of wealth (i.e., the rich be...

T o what extent does the separation of powers affect congressional roll call voting behavior? To answer this question, I offer a strategic model of congressional decision making that asserts members of Congress pursue public policy goals when casting roll call votes. From the equilibrium predictions of a formal model, I generate testable hypotheses by computing the expected net amount of sophis...
