BACKGROUND Large quantities of water condensation occur in the anaesthesia circuit during low-flow anaesthesia. We hypothesized that cooling of the CO2 absorbent would prevent water condensation. METHODS To cool CO2 absorbent efficiently, we constructed a novel temperature gradient reduction (TGR) canister, which was cooled by a blower. Experiments were divided into three groups: the conventi...

HIGHLIGHTS Trichoderma inoculation increased the total biomass, seedling height, root length, area, diameter, number of tips, and growth potential seedlings. increases resistance bean plant to Rhizoctonia pathogen. Among improved isolates Trichoderma, ChBD13 ChBD15 showed better performance in terms growth.

Since most of the anaerobic bacterial isolates from rice plant residue in irrigated rice field soil grew slowly or weakly in the medium (PY medium) used, growth factors for the isolates were investigated. Plant residue extract (RE) was prepared by autoclaving plant residue collected from the soil, and RE was added to the medium as a possible source of growth factors. With the addition, growth o...

tuberose (polianthes tuberosa l.) is one of the most important cut flowers in tropical and subtropical areas. this flower has forth order in cut flower and second order in bulbous plants production in iran. plant spacing and nitrogen necessity are the most important factors for tuberose quality and quantity. in this study, field experiment carried out as factorial design in randomized complete ...
