Protein synthesis and degradation represent substantial costs during plant growth. To obtain a quantitative measure of the rate of protein synthesis and degradation, we supplied CO2 to intact Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) Columbia-0 plants and analyzed enrichment in free amino acids and in amino acid residues in protein during a 24-h pulse and 4-d chase. While many free amino acids labeled...

The use of pesticides in modern agriculture is unavoidable because they are required to control weeds. Pesticides are poisonous; hence, they are dangerous if misused. Understanding the fate of pesticides will be useful to use them safely. Therefore, contaminations of water and soil resources could be avoided. The fates of pesticides in soils are influenced by their sorption, decomposition and m...

Iron oxide (Fe2O3) nanoparticles were prepared by combination of sol-gel autocombustion and ultrasonic irradiation. The XRD pattern reveals that the crystallite size of sample is 36.7 nm and the phase identification shows hematite, syn has been crystalized. The morphology of the sample investigated by FESEM showed that particle size of the sample was about 76 nm. The optic...

abstract: in this project, a nano catalyst (tio2) and ozone combined with each other and they were used for the removal of 4-nitrophenol (4np) in industerial wastewater. the effect of some operational parameters such as initial ph (3-9), the concentration of pollutant (20-80 mg/l), and amount of tio2 were investigated. in o3/tio2 process, the anion radical  formed before the production of hydro...

The chemical degradation of an extraction solvent composed of a mixture of tri-n-octylamine (extractant) and 1-tridecanol (phase modifier) in n-dodecane in contact with an acidic aqueous sulfate solution containing chromium(VI) has been investigated. The kinetics of degradation and the degradation products have been determined. GC-MS analyses evidenced the formation of 1-tridecanal, di-n-octyla...

Degradation is a common phenomenon for many products. Due to a variety of reasons, the degradation rates of units from the same population are often heterogeneous. In addition, when the degradation process is monitored using dedicated sensors, the measurements are often inaccurate due to various noisy factors. To account for the heterogeneous degradation rate and the non-negligible measurement ...

Methyl tert-butyl ether ~MTBE! biodegradation was investigated using a continuously stirred tank reactor with biomass retention ~porous pot reactor! operated under aerobic conditions. MTBE was fed to the reactor at an influent concentration of 150 mg/L ~1.70 mM!. An identical reactor was operated as a killed control under the same conditions. Operation of these reactors demonstrated that remova...

The goal of this study was to investigate the most suitable kinetic models for pectin extraction by way of ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) and conventional heating extraction (CHE) with acid from melon peel. The ultrasound and acidic assisted extraction were performed on powdered melon peel in three different temperatures of 40-55-70°C and 50-70-90°C, respectively. It was observed that, in...

چکیده آترازین مهمترین علف کش خانواده ترایازینها است که جزو علف کش های با نیمه عمر متوسط طبقه بندی می شود. به منظور بررسی تأثیر کود آلی و مقدار کاربرد آن بر تجزیه آترازین، آزمایشی به صورت اسپلیت پلات در قالب طرح کاملاً تصادفی در سه تکرار در مزرعه تحقیقاتی دانشکده کشاورزی دانشگاه فردوسی مشهد اجرا شد. کود آلی دو سطح (0 و 50 تن در هکتار) به عنوان کرت اصلی و مقدار کاربرد آترازین در دو سطح (2 و 4 کیلو...
