in order to evaluate the possibility use of palm waste cellulose as a substitute substrate for growing pot plants, an experiment was conducted in completely randomized block design with 6 replication and six treatments on aglaonema sp. the treatments were 5 levels including 0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 palm celluloid wastes mixed with different rates of some amendments such as peat, coconut coir, perl...

monometallic and bimetallic ni and co catalytic nanoparticles supported on titanium dioxide (rutile phase) substrate were prepared by wet impregnation method. these nanoparicles were used as catalysts for synthesis of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) from acetylene decomposition at 700°c by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition (ccvd) technique. the nanomaterials (catalyst and cnts) were...

several transporters appear to be important in transporting various drugs. many patients, who receive morphine as analgesic medication, also receive other medications with potency of changing morphine transport by affecting p-glycoprotein (p-gp) and oatp2 transport system. this could influence morphine pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics. the aim of present study was to elucidate the transpor...

Although several insect orders have been deeply studied in plant–animal interactions (e.g. pollination) cockroaches traditionally ignored taxonomic and ecological studies. However, they could be playing a role the reproduction of plants. To date, 8 plant species use as pollination agent. In our study, we reviewed 2865 records from citizen science platforms own data Iberian Peninsula to find flo...

in this trial, the effect of different levels of echum amoneum (ea) (0.3, 30, 300 or 3000 µl) on in vitro ruminal fermentation characteristics and methane production was assessed. the parameters studied were in vitro gas production (ivgp), methane production, ammonia (nh3-n) concentration, in vitro organic matter degradability (ivomde), partitioning factor (pf) (the ratio of substrate truly deg...

the aim of this study is experimental assay of sensitivity and stability of a bimetallic silver/gold spr sensor chip. this chip utilizes the sensitivity of the silver and the stability of the gold. moreover, the silver layer (instead of usual cr or ti layer) was used as an adhesive intermediate layer between the gold layer and the glass substrate. the optimization of the gold/silver thickness u...

Abstract: Electroless Nickel (EN) composite coatings embedded with Cr2O3 and/or MoS2 particles were deposited to combine the characters of both Cr2O3 and MoS2 into one coating in this study. The effects of the co-deposited particles on corrosion behavior of the coating in 3.5% NaCl media were investigated. The results showed that both Ni-P and Ni-P composite coatings had significant improvement...

A dot immunobinding assay ( DIA) was used for a quantitative and qualitative assay of rubella antibody. Purified antigen and conjugated anti-human immunoglobulin (RAHlg) were prepared. Nitrocellulose paper dotted with the antigen was added to serially diluted sera or blood samples. The reacting antibodies were visualized by a peroxidase system. Development of a colored insoluble substrate ...
