In this study, yield-water and profit function was used to obtain water demand function in agriculture sector. The results showed that the ratio of actual to potential Evapotranspiration had positive, significant effecton the ratio of actual to potential yield for wheat and barley. Also, square ratio of actual to potential Evapotranspiration had negative, significant relationship. After estimat...

This study investigated the effect of Rumex Sc (commercial product which includes of Saccharomyces cervisiae, saponin and essential oils) on rumen fermentation, blood glucose, urea, milk yield and milk composition. Animals were offered a basal diet containing alfalfa hay (15.5%), corn silage (24%), beet pulp (7%) and concentrate (53.5%). Additionally, Rumex Sc was included in the experimental d...

Whole grains are a key component of a healthy diet, and enabling consumers to easily choose foods with a high whole-grain content is an important step for better prevention of chronic disease. Several definitions exist for whole-grain foods, yet these do not account for the diversity of food products that contain cereals. With the goal of creating a relatively simple whole-grain food definition...

Structural proteins of the poultry pathogen, infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV), were expressed in the baculovirus/insect cell expression system. To date, several reports have indicated that animal virus structural proteins are expressed only at low yield in this system. In this article, several factors were examined to enhance yield. These include medium, dissolved oxygen level, and the ad...

Failure analysis (FA) and diagnosis of memory cores plays a key role in system-on-chip (SOC) product development and yield ramp-up. Conventional FA based on bitmaps and the experiences of the FA engineer is time consuming and error prone. The increasing time-to-volume pressure on semiconductor products calls for new development flow that enables the product to reach a profitable yield level as ...

OBJECTIVE To quantitate key parameters of the platelet-rich plasma (PRP) product from five commercial canine PRP systems in healthy, adult canines. MATERIALS AND METHODS A prospective study was performed from January 2013 to April 2014. Five commercial systems were analyzed using 10 healthy dogs per system.(-) Blood was obtained according to the manufacturer's protocol for each system. The me...

The one pot reaction of glyoxal and hydroxylamine hydrochloride in aqueous sodium hydroxide was found to be a safe and inexpensive method for the preparation of diaminoglyoxime. By increasing stoichiometric ratio of the hydroxylamine hydrochloride and decreasing the solvent volume, the product yield increased considerably (~ 70%).

P-Silylated N,N-dialkyl amines (5) were easily synthesized in good to excellent yield from aldehydes (1), trimethylsilyldialkylamines (2), and trimethylsilylmethylmagnesium chloride (4) in the presence of 5 M lithium perchlorate solution in diethyl ether. The reaction Of (2) with aldehyde proceeded smoothly in the LiCI0 , to give the imimum salt (3). Addition of trimethylsilylmethylrnagnes...

This paper describes a prototype of a discrete event simulator Y4 (Yield Forecaster) capable of simulating defect related yield loss as a function of time, for a multi-product IC manufacturing line. The methodology of estimating yield and cost is based on mimicking the operation and characteristics of a manufacturing line in the time domain. The paper presents a set of models that take into acc...

The synthetic route in this work is based on the classical Friedel-Crafts strategy, and began with 1,4-dimethoxybenzene (I), followed by alkylation and selective demethylation of 2-methoxy function in 0x0-acid (3). The orthoformylation to synthesize aldehyde (6) was based on the Reimer-Tieman reaction. Chain extension of this aldehyde required methylation of the hydroxyl group and condensat...
