Plant litter is an important factor for soil conservation and sustainability that could modify soil chemical properties and increase the plant biomass production. The aim of this research was to compare plant litter chemical composition and its effects on soil properties in three species including Hordeum bulbosum, Poa bulbosa, Bromus tectorum. First, soil samples were taken in the depth of 0-3...

  Objective: In order to use natural compounds in controlling plant pests and diseases, many researchers in recent years have studied the antifungal effects of essential oils and plant extracts.  The purpose of this study was to investigate the chemical composition and antifungal effects of Echium khuzestanium and marubbium anisodan extract...

Hazardous chemicals are indispensable substances for the development of modern industries. However, improper storage, transportation, or handling hazardous can cause chain disasters such as leakage and explosion, seriously threatening safety people’s lives, society, economy, natural environment. In this study, we analysed occurrence evolution process various disaster events caused by chemical b...

Bioactivity of titanium depends on the quality and characteristics of its surface oxide film. Through implementation of chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process on titanium plates, a protective oxide (titania) film grows on the titanium based implant surface. In this article, surface properties of the titanium oxide are investigated as a function of the CMP process conditions. Surface respon...

this study was conducted to determine the chemical composition and metabolizable energy of poultry by-product meal (pbpm) from two slaughterhouses in iran. samples were analyzed for dry matter, crude protein, ash, ether extract and gross energy. the amounts of calcium, phosphorus, sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron, manganese, copper and zinc were determined. the apparent metabolizable energy (...

the objective of the present study was to determine chemical composition and fatty acid profile of common kilka ,clupeonella cultriventris caspia, in the caspian sea. the chemical analysis revealed that the protein and lipid content of common kilka were 15.05 and 6.5% of the fresh weight, and total mufa, pufa and sfa were found to be 37.00, 32.89 and 29.03% respectively. palmitic acid (16:0) am...

in this research the influence of adding sic on microstructure and electrical properties of zno-based nanocomposite varistors were investigated. sic was added with amounts of 10-0 mass% to zno-based varistor composition. it is found that sic allows reaching to high threshold voltage with formation of fine-grained zno.another important effect of adding sic is formation zn2sio4 (willemite) on the ...
