This study investigated the relationship between physicochemical properties (namely halogen content and hydrophobicity) of halogenated trace organics and their removal efficiencies by a laboratory scale membrane bioreactor (MBR) under stable operating conditions. The reported results demonstrated a combined effect of halogen content and hydrophobicity on the removal. Compounds with high halogen...

introduction: soil fertility management is a key factor in achieving sustainable agriculture. use of organic fertilizers is one of the methods that without environmental harmful effects with improvement of chemical and biological conditions increases soil fertility. nitroxin contains a collection of the best strains of nitrogen fixation bacteria of the genus azospirillum and azotobacter. these ...

background and objectives: although chemical fertilizers in short-term can increase vegetables yield, but must be renewed each planting season that this trend increases the concentration of nitrate in the vegetables shoots, nitrogen leaching and contamination of water resources, loss of beneficial insects and microorganisms and soil fertility will decline, and over time reduce the yield and qua...

SUMMARY The Distributed Structure-Searchable Toxicity (DSSTox) ARYEXP and GEOGSE files are newly published, structure-annotated files of the chemical-associated and chemical exposure-related summary experimental content contained in the ArrayExpress Repository and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) Series (based on data extracted on September 20, 2008). ARYEXP and GEOGSE contain 887 and 1064 unique ...

To study the effect of chemical and biological fertilizers on growth and essential oil content of lavender (Lavandula angustifolia Mill.), the present work was conducted in 2012-2013 at the experimental field of Alborz Research Station of the Research Institute of Forests and Rangelands, Karaj, Iran. The experiment was conducted in factorial in the form of a randomized complete block design wit...

to study the effect of three soil fertilizing systems (chemical, organic, and integrated) on forage yield and quality of globe artichoke (cynara scolymus) an experiment was conducted using a randomized complete block design (rcbd) of four replications at the research farm of college of agriculture, university of tehran, karaj, iran in 2006. the treatments included 5 levels of chemical fertilize...

Soil salt content is a key factor that determines soil chemical quality together with soil reaction, charge properties and nutrient reserves (Lal et al., 1999). An adequate salt supply is essential for an optimum development of photosynthetic mechanism and other biochemical processes in plants (Sitte et al., 1994). Soil salt content constitutes an environmental problem when salt accumulation ge...

Histochemical and chemical studies of the acid mucopolysaccharide content of the aorta were made in rabbits fed cholesterol for up to seven months. Colloidal iron staining suggested an increase in acid mucopolysaceharide content of the aortas with mild atheromatous lesions but not when severe lesions were present. Chemical determination, however, revealed no increase in the concentration of aci...

abstract to evaluate the effect of different sources of p fertilizer on grain yield and yield components of two barely varieties, this experiment was conducted in research farm, college of agriculture, university of tehran in 2010. the experimental treatments were arranged as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications. the treatments consisted of two barely vari...
