The present study evaluated the ground water quality and physico-chemical characteristics of the water samples collected from 15 bore wells in the study area which is situated in Rangappa Layout which is located in the Ittamadgu Village of Uttarahalli Hobli which falls in the Bangalore South taluk of the Bangalore Urban district. Physico-chemical characteristics of the collected water samples, ...

Data Description The simulated data consisted of daily PM2.5 samples for one year (1/1/1984 12/31/1984). Each sample was characterized by the concentrations of the following 50 chemical species: Al, NH3, Sb, As, Ba, Bi, Br, Cd, Ca, CO3, Cs, Cl, Cr, Co, Cu, EC (Elemental Carbon), Ga, In, I, Fe, La, Pb, Mg, Mn, Hg, Mo, Nd, Ni, Nb, NO3, OC (Organic Carbon), Pd, P, K, Pr, Rb, Se, Si, Ag, Na, Sr, SO...

Effects of the in ovo injection of commercial diluent containing supplemental microminerals (Zn, Mn, and Cu) on hatchability and hatching chick quality variables in Ross × Ross 708 broilers were examined. On 17 d of incubation (doi) eggs were subjected to 1 of 4 treatments using a commercial multi-egg injector. Treatments included non-injected (treatment 1) and diluent-injected (treatment 2) co...

Facilitated SO4(2-) transfers by hydrogen bond-forming ionophores are investigated across the nitrobenzene (NB)-water interface by using polarography with a dropping electrolyte electrode. Bis-thiourea 1, alpha,alpha'-bis(N'-p-nitrophenylthioureylene)-m-xylene, is found to significantly facilitate the transfer of the highly hydrophilic SO4(2-) whereas its counterpart, N-(p-nitrophenyl)-N'-propy...

SO4(2-) transport by winter flounder intestine in Ussing chambers was characterized. With 50 mM SO4(2-) (physiological level) bathing the lumen, net absorption (lumen to blood) dominated. Under short-circuited conditions, 1 mM SO4(2-) on both sides, net active SO4(2-) secretion occurred (8.55 +/- 0.96 nmol. cm(-2). h(-1)). NaCN (10 mM), ouabain (10(-4) M), and luminal DIDS (0.2 mM) inhibited ne...

We conducted two experiments using marginally Zn-deficient (-Zn) calves to determine which supplemental chemical form of Zn would most rapidly reverse certain Zn deficiency signs and to determine whether a change in protein turnover had occurred in Zn deficiency. In Exp. 1, 40 crossbred beef heifers were allocated by BW to four groups. The control group received 23 mg Zn/kg diet DM from ZnSO4 s...

Stable sulfur isotope measurements (delta34S) made on samples collected from a 2 m snowpit on the Inilchek Glacier, Tien Shan Mountains (42.16 degrees N, 80.25 degrees E, 5100 m) are used to estimate sources of sulfate (SO4(2-)) in high-elevation Central Asian precipitation. Comparison of snowpit oxygen isotope (delta18O) data with previous work constrains the age of the snowpit samples to the ...

The zinc (Zn) supply increases the fruit yield of Citrus trees that are grown, especially in the highly weathered soils of the tropics due to the inherently low nutrient availability in the soil solution. Leaf sprays containing micronutrients are commonly applied to orchards, even though the nutrient supply via soil could be of practical value. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of Zn fert...
