A deficiência de ferro é um sério problema de saúde que afeta uma grande proporção da população do mundo. No Brasil, foi publicada uma regulamentação indicando que farinhas de milho e trigo devem ser fortificadas com ácido fólico e ferro. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar...

We report the realization of a new mult-band-gap semiconductor. Zn(1-y)Mn(y)OxTe1-x alloys have been synthesized using the combination of oxygen ion implantation and pulsed laser melting. Incorporation of small quantities of isovalent oxygen leads to the formation of a narrow, oxygen-derived band of extended states located within the band gap of the Zn(1-y)Mn(y)Te host. When only 1.3% of Te ato...

pomegranate juice (pj) and its products are directly used in foods due to their pleasant taste and palatability as well as preservative effects. in spite of useful effects of essential oils such as zataria multiflora boiss essential oil (zeo) on prolonging shelf-life of foods, their application is restricted due to their vigorous taste and aroma. in the present study, physicochemical characteri...

in order to determine the effects of zinc foliar application on the vegetative characteristics, yield and fruit quality in strawberry (fragaria × ananassa duch) cv kordestan under salinity stress conditions, an experiment was carried out hydroponically in glasshouse as a controlled environment during 2009 through 2010. three levels of nacl (0, 15, 30 mm) and three levels of zn (0, 1.5, 3 g/l) w...

ABSTRACT- The effects of iron (Fe) and zinc (Zn) treatments on the growth and nutrient composition of chickpea were studied in a greenhouse experiment arranged in a completely randomized design. While the application of Fe decreased mean shoot dry weight of chickpea, that of Zn had no significant effect on chickpea shoot dry weight. Increasing Fe levels drastically decreased Mn concentration an...
