Hypothermic potassium cardioplegia is now commonly used to protect the myocardium during surgically induced ischemia. Because the potassium-related membrane depolarization has been shown to increase calcium influx, we undertook this study to define the effects of varying the calcium content in hyperkalemic perfusates and the effects of using magnesium instead of or in addition to potassium as t...

trichoderma spp. are known as efficient plant growth promoting agents. hence, enrichment of soil by appropriate population of trichoderma is useful and important for effective plant growth promote. present study aimed to investigate the plant growth promoting effects of five strains of the genus trichoderma species include: trichoderma harzianum tr6, t. harzianum t22, t. asperellum t34, t. atro...

abstract     in order to select the best planting distributions on the rows and study their effects on morphological traits and uptake amount of some nutrients including nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and calcium in forage of common vetch (vicia sativa) a factorial experiment was carried out with randomized complete block design and 3 replications in research field of mohaghegh ardabili univer...

BACKGROUND: One of limitation factor in agricultural plants production in dry areas, supply requires water. Also nutrition crop management is a necessary strategy for achieve sustainable agriculture. OBJECTIVES: Current study was conducted to assessment the effects of different irrigation regimes and several amount of nitrogen fertilizer on seed nutrition...

Although phosphorus has long been considered an important factor in the growth of diverse biota such as bacteria, algae, and zooplankton, insect nutrition has classically focused on dietary protein and energy content. However, research in elemental stoichiometry has suggested that primary producer biomass has similar N:P ratios in aquatic and terrestrial systems, and phosphorus-rich herbivores ...

Considering the increasing rice consumption in the world and also the excessive application of pesticides to increase production, an experiment was conducted to determine the pesticide residues and their effects on nitrogen, potassium and phosphorus content of Hashemi, Khazar and Gohar (SA13) rice cultivars, in a factorial design at randomized complete block design with three replications. In t...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Epidemiologic studies show an association between higher predialysis serum phosphorus and increased death risk in maintenance hemodialysis (MHD) patients. The hypothesis that higher dietary phosphorus intake and higher phosphorus content per gram of dietary protein intake are each associated with increased mortality in MHD patients was examined. DESIGN, SETTING, PART...
