The fatty acid-conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) enhances glucose tolerance and insulin action on skeletal muscle glucose transport in rodent models of insulin resistance. However, no study has directly compared the metabolic effects of the two primary CLA isomers, cis-9,trans-11-CLA (c9,t11-CLA) and trans-10,cis-12-CLA (t10,c12-CLA). Therefore, we assessed the effects of a 50:50 mixture of these ...


 With the use of integrated nutrient management, cauliflower growth and yield can be boosted. Due to their complementing effects, ideal combination different organic inorganic sources nutrients may significantly boost yield. The experiment consisted 13 treatments viz. T1= N120P60K100S20 kg/ha (Recommended dose NPKS as control), T2= + CD (5 t/ha), T3= VC (4 T4= MSC T5= N120P60K100S20B0.6Mo...

Object-based storage is the natural evolution of the block storage interface, aimed at efficiently and effectively meeting the performance, reliability, security, and service requirements demanded by current and future applications. The object-based storage interface provides an organizational container, called an object, into which higher-level software (e.g., file systems, databases, and user...

Am 03./04. März 2008 fand der erste Grid Workflow Workshop im OFFIS in Oldenburg statt. Über 30 Teilnehmer aus Wissenschaft und Wirtschaft tauschten sich im Rahmen der D-Grid-Initiative des BMBF (www.d-grid.de) über das Thema Workflows in Grid-Umgebungen aus, in denen verteilte Ressourcen standardisiert gemeinschaftlich genutzt werden. Workflows in Grid-Umgebungen können dabei als Arbeitsabläuf...

The waste minimization program in Chemical Engineering at North Carolina State University has developed a screening and selection process to identify industrial situations with favorable probabilities for prevention of pollution emissions. The potential utilization of spent sulfuric acid and b y p r Q d q amnonia to yield amnonlum sulfate fertilizer from gkhemical manufacturjr was identified by...

We measure the patterns produced by a CW laser near 650 nm passing through one and two slit apertures with a detector mounted on a linear translator. Data collected for a single slit of width a = .04 mm is used to measure the wavelength of light. Data collected for a double slit aperture of slit separation d ~ .25 mm and width a ~ .04 mm is fit with an algorithm that varies the parameters a and...

A field study was conducted to determine the effect of organic and mineral-based fertilizers on phytochemical contents in the tubers of two cassava varieties. Treatments were arranged in a split plot design with three replicates. The main plot was fertilizer source (vermicompost, empty fruit bunch compost and inorganic fertilizer) and sub-plot was cassava variety (Medan and Sri Pontian). The am...

The research was conducted in 11-25 July 2020 at Water Quality and Fish Nutrition Laboratory, Faculty of Agriculture, University Malikussaleh. design used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) non factorial with 4 treatments 3 replications. With treatment A: culture Thalassiosira sp 15 ppm silicate fertilizer, B: 17 C: 19 D: 21 fertilizer. result showed that the effect fertilizer different dosage ...

A n n u a l W h e a t N e w s l e t t e r V o l. 5 4. The 4-year average for the different fertilizer backgrounds indicated that the least total grain damage by cereal bug larvae was in the block with organic-mineral fertilizer, 5.6 %. Damage in the blocks without fertilizer and with only organic fertilizer was 5.9 and 6.0 %, respectively. Total damage was 4.2–4.9 % in seed with a score of 2, w...

The efficient management of nitrogen (N) fertilizer and irrigation is of utmost importance because they are two of the greatest expenses for corn production. This project was conducted to determine if yield and efficiency of fertilizer N in corn could be improved by applying N at later developmental stages through a subsurface drip irrigation (SDI) system. Experiments in 2014 and 2015 compared ...
