A salinidade é um dos fatores que compromete a formação de mudas, necessitando associar medidas mitiguem seus efeitos. O objetivo com esta pesquisa foi avaliar os efeitos das frequências irrigação, da água, polímero e volume recipiente no crescimento qualidade mudas Talisia esculenta (A. St.-Hil.) Radlk. Os tratamentos foram obtidos combinação entre concentração (0,0; 0,2; 0,6; 1,0 e; 1,2 g dm-...

La malanga (Colacasia esculenta L.), debido a su acelerado desarrollo vegetativo y sencilla propagación, se ha convertido en uno de los principales cultivos las zonas tropicales del Ecuador. Gracias sus propiedades bioquímicas alto valor nutricional permitido aplicar tecnologías sencillas para aprovechar este recurso agrícola la obtención almidón utilización diferentes alimentos. El objetivo es...

Animals have to modulate their locomotor behavior according to changes in external circumstances. The locomotor requirements are expected to be most extreme for species that move through different physical environments, such as water versus land. In this study, we examine the use of the propulsive impulse as a covariate in the comparison of the kinematics of locomotion of a semi-aquatic frog Ra...

This study focuses on the population trends of two widespread European anuran species: the common toad (Bufo bufo) and the common frog (Rana temporaria). The basis of this study is data gathered over two decades of amphibian fencing alongside roads in the Austrian state of Salzburg. Different statistical approaches were used to analyse the data. Overall average increase or decrease of each spec...

Starch is widely used as an ingredient and significantly contributes to texture, appearance, and overall acceptability of cereal based foods, playing an important role due to its ability to form a matrix, entrapping air bubbles. A detailed characterisation of five gluten-free starches (corn, wheat, rice, tapioca, potato) was performed in this study. In addition, the influence of these starches,...

Intestinal calcium absorption was investigated in an adult frog (Rana esculenta) by injecting a CaCl2 solution containing 45Ca into the lumen. The 45Ca absorption coefficient in the proximal loop was higher than in the distal loop, only when the CaCl2 solution was left for 4 h. This coefficient increased both in the proximal and distal loops when a 4-h treatment was substituted for a 1-h treatm...

Synthesis of cerium oxide (CeO2) nanoparticles (NPs) via biological approach has received a lot interest to reduce the harmful effects chemical synthesis. In present study, Colocasia esculenta leaf extract facilitated preparation CeO2-NPs by using sol-gel technique. The crystal structural was proven X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) investigation be cubic with size 2.94 nm according Debye–Scherrer...

This study was carried out to develop a green approach synthesising sodium cyanide (NaCN) using hydrogen (HCN) extracted from cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) leaves after 120 min of maceration at 30 °C and 45 recovery under vacuum 35–40 °C. The CN- ion released via autolysis reacted with the Na+ following extraction former produce NaCN by saturating absorbing hydroxide (NaOH) solution. speci...

In this paper the antipyretic effect of Hydroalcoholic extract leaves Colocasia esculenta against Brewer yeast induced pyrexia model in Wistar rats either sex was investigated. (Apiaceae) is a tropical perennial plant. It contain flavonoids, alkaloids, apigenin, anthocyanin, carbohydrates, fiber, minerals, protein, fat, calcium and iron, Fever animal (rats) by injection 15%w/v brewer’s suspensi...
