The Relative Physiological Effects of Β- and Γ-rays upon the Egg of Nereis

When Nereis eggs are exposed to radiations from a tube of radium emanation, the walls of which absorb all the alpha-rays, the resulting physiological change is produced by rays having a coefficient of absorption of the order of 23.9 cm.(-1) This fact indicates that the physiological effect is due almost exclusively to beta-rays. The gamma-rays alone can produce the reaction. To produce equivale...

The Relative Physiological Effects of Β-rays of Different Velocities

1. The physiological effect upon the eggs of Nereis of homogeneous groups of beta-rays of different velocities is proportional to their ability to ionize air. 2. beta-rays of low velocity produce a greater amount of physiological change than the same number of rays of high velocity. 3. These conclusions are consistent with, but do not prove, the view that the physiological effects of radiations...

Effects of Barley Cultivar and Dietary Supplemental enzyme on Performance, Egg Quality Traits, and Selected Blood Parameters of Laying Hens

The effect of supplementing two commercial multienzyme to diets included two barley cultivars (Sararood [71.99%] and Valfajr [66.39%]) on performance, egg quality, and blood parameters of laying hens was investigated in an 8-wk (65 to 73 wk of age) experiment.  The commercial multienzymes were Grindazym™ (with mainly β-glucanase and xylanase activity) and Hemicell® (with mainly β-mannanase acti...

Supercritical Fluid Extraction of β-Carotene from Crude Palm Oil Using CO2 in a Bubbler Extractor: Mass Transfer Study

In this study, the diffusivity and volumetric mass transfer coefficients for the extraction of β-carotene from crude palm oil using CO2 solvent in supercritical fluid were determined in the pressure range of 7.5-17.5 MPa and temperature range of 80-120 ºC. For this purpose, a statistical method was applied in order to minimize the number of experiments required. The volumetric ma...
