An experiment was conducted, from 22 to 42-d-post-hatch, to evaluate the effect of different combinations of carbohydrases (CHS), citric acid (CA) and high-dose phytase in wheat-canola meal-based diets with very low content of non-phytate phosphorus (NPP) on growth performance, plasma calcium (Ca) and P and tibia ash (TA) content of broiler chickens. One hundred and ninety two 21-d-old male chi...

If a sensory brain state plays an unusual functional role, does the phenomenology go with the role or the brain state? If the phenomenology goes with the functional role, that supports functionalism, which is the view that phenomenology just is the role.

While we were able to exploit existing research for many of the design issues, it turned out that we needed to develop our own approach to text planning (Rambow 1990). This paper will present the system and a t tempt to show how these design objectives led to particular design decisions. The structure of the paper is as follows. In Section 2, we will present the underlying application and give ...

the use of noninvasive assessment tools such as multi-slice ct coronary angiography (msct-ca-ca) is recently considered mainly because it offers safety, patient convenience, and faster performance. the aim of the present study was to determine the ability of msct-ca-ca for the detection of significant stenoses in the coronary arteries, in comparison to conventional invasive coronary angiography...

this study proposes a modified version of cultural algorithms (cas) which benefits from rule-based system for influence function. this rule-based system selects and applies the suitable knowledge source according to the distribution of the solutions. this is important to use appropriate influence function to apply to a specific individual, regarding to its role in the search process. this rule ...

the study was conducted with the aim of examining the rate of foreign language anxiety in male and female language learners. flcas (foreign language classroom anxiety scale) was administered to two groups of male and female learners. the mean scores of flcas indicated a significant difference with females having considerably higher levels of anxiety than males. from 38 female learners, 22 were ...
