Trifolium pratense (red clover) and T. repens (white clover) edible flowers were investigated for their chemical profile and health properties. The total phenols and flavonoids contents were evaluated. Quercetin, kaempferol, luteolin, rutin, and myricetin were used as markers and quantified by HPLC. The antioxidant effects were investigated by using different in vitro assays. Moreover, α-amylas...

abstract in order to evaluate the effects of rice conventional herbicides on rotational second crops (lettuce, cress, clover, canola and radish), soil microbial biomass and diversity, a field and glasshouse experiments were conducted in mazandaran province and research glasshouse of ferdowsi university of mashhad, respectively. five experiments were carried out for 5 second crop separately with...

We give some new performance results for the Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) simulation of dynamical clover-improved Wilson fermions using an improved pseudo-fermion action. The generalisation of even-odd preconditioning for the standard Wilson fermion matrix to the clover-improved case is not unique. In the literature the so called symmetric and asymmetric versions are discussed. Most of the previous...

We present results for the kaon B-parameter BK from a sample of 200 configurations using the Wilson action and 460 configurations using the SW-Clover action, on a 183×64 lattice at β = 6.0. We compare results obtained by renormalizing the relevant operator with different “boosted” values of the strong coupling constant αs. In the case of the SW-Clover action, we also use the operator renormaliz...

The oestrogenic activity of certain cultivars of subterranean clover (Trifolium subterraneum, L.) first became known through the observation of serious infertility in ewes in the early 1940's in Western Australia (Bennetts, Underwood and Shier-1946). The manifestations in commercial flocks of the syndrome "clover disease" have been dealt with in the preceding paper (Lightfoot 1974). The deleter...

In this work, we perform parameter tuning with dynamical anisotropic clover lattices using the Schrödinger functional and stout-smearing in the fermion field. We find that ξR/ξ0 is relatively close to 1 in our parameter search, which allows us to fix ξ0 in our runs. We proposed to determine the gauge and fermion anisotropy in a Schrödinger-background small box using Wilson loop ratios and PCAC ...

This demonstration presents Clover Quiz, a turn-based multiplayer trivia game for Android devices with more than 200K multiple choice questions (in English and Spanish) about different domains generated out of DBpedia. Instead of live queries, questions are created offline through a data extraction pipeline and a versatile template-based mechanism. A back-end server manages the question set and...

Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) are in consideration to be used in plant protection products. Before these products can be placed on the market, ecotoxicological tests have to be performed. In this study, the nitrogen fixing bacterium Rhizobium trifolii and red clover were exposed to two TiO2 NPs, i.e., P25, E171 and a non-nanomaterial TiO2. Growth of both organisms individually and t...

We present our final results of the charmonium spectrum in quenched QCD on anisotropic lattices. Simulations are made with the plaquette gauge action and a tadpole improved clover quark action employing ξ = as/at = 3. We calculate the spectrum of Sand P-states and their excitation, and study the scaling behavior of mass splittings. Comparison is made with the experiment and previous lattice res...
