High calcium intake has been associated with an increased risk of advanced-stage and high-grade prostate cancer. Several studies have found a positive association between phosphorus intake and prostate cancer risk. We investigated the joint association between calcium and phosphorus and risk of prostate cancer in the Health Professionals Follow-Up Study, with a focus on lethal and high-grade di...

canola (brassica napus l.) is one of the most important oil seed crops. in order to evaluate the effects of integrated fertilization (chemical, manure and biofertilizers) on canola (b. napus variety hyola 401) yield and uptake of mineral nutrients in saline soil and water, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete blocks (rcbd) arrangement with eight treatments in three replicatio...

Sediments from the Southern Caspian Sea, located in Iranian coast were examined on the basis of P-fractionation (five forms of phosphorus) by a sequential extraction scheme. Ninety-six surface sediment samples (for each season with triplicate) were collected from eight sampling transects in 10 and 100 m depths during summer and winter in 2010-2011. The result indicated that the most abundant fo...

nitrogen and phosphorus are two of the essential nutrients that promote plants' growth and yield. deficiency of these nutrients in soil is usually compensated through application of chemical fertilizers. chemical fertilizers on the other hand have detrimental effects on environment in addition to decreasing quality of agricultural products. the present study was conducted to evaluate the e...

From the last few years, the inclusion of microbial phytase in poultry diets has increased significantly, mainly in response to heightened concerns over phosphorus pollution of the environment and as cheaper means to make phosphorus available to birds from phytate. Phytate is the major form of phosphorus, abundantly found in cereal grains, beans and oilseed meals used in poultry diet but the mo...

wheat (triticum aestivum l.) was grown in earthen pots containing soil of balkasar soil series (sandy loam) in green house at the department of soil science and swc, pir mehr ali shah arid agriculture university, rawalpindi during rabi season, 2007. the crop was treated with two levels of phosphorus (40 and 80 kg p ha-1 ) in the form of ssp, tsp, np and dap. a basal doze of 100 kg n and 60 kg k...

Background: Various chemical, physical and biologic treatment methods are being used to remove nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater. Sequencing batch reactor (SBR) is a modified activated sludge process that removes phosphorus and organic material from sanitary wastewater, biologically. Methods: This study was conducted in 2016.The performance of an aerobic-anaerobic SBR pilot device, locat...

salicylic acid is an important organic acid in plants rhizosphere soil exuded in the phosphorus (p) deficiency condition. to study the sorption behavior of p in the presence of salicylic acid, a batch experiment was conducted with different concentrations of salicylic acid (0, 2, 5 and 10mm) and p (0- 45 mg p/l) in a calcareous soil. the results showed that application salicylic acid decreased ...

High extracellular phosphorus directly increases parathyroid hormone (PTH) secretion and gene transcription. The present study evaluates the effect of high phosphorus diet on the parathyroid cell cycle in rats with normal renal function. Rats were divided into two groups, receiving either a high phosphorus diet (HPD, P=1.2%) or a normal phosphorus diet (NPD, P=0.6%). The dietary calcium content...

A Ni(0) promoted intramolecular [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization of triynes provides suitable access to a new series of phosphorus embedding helicenes. [6]Oxahelicenes in which the helical sequence terminates with a phosphole oxide unit have been prepared in both racemic and enantiopure forms and characterized by X-ray diffraction studies.
