This work focused on determining the micronutrient status of Crocus sativus L.stigmas with studying different correlations between physical-chemical compounds (moisture, minerals, ash, total phenolic content, carotenoids, zeaxanthin, vitamins and antioxidant activity). The mineral composition (Na, K, Ca, Mg, P, Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn, Mo B) was analyzed by ICP-OES (Inductively Coupled Plasma - Optical ...

Abstract Availability of micronutrients is one the important factors for successful and economic cultivation vineyards. The objectives this study are to evaluate spatial distribution soil (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn, B) their suitability vineyard in Jabal Al Arab Syria. To achieve research objectives, samples were collected randomly from farms which cover area. Following this, analyses conducted determine ...

We have developed and employed multiple amino acid-specific isotopic labeling schemes to obtain definitive assignments for active site 1H NMR resonances of iron(II)- and iron(III)-superoxide dismutase (Fe(II)SOD and Fe(III)SOD) from Escherichia coli. Despite the severe relaxivity of high-spin Fe(III), we have been able to assign resonances to ligand His' delta1 protons near 100 ppm, and beta an...

Micronutrient malnutrition, especially deficiency of two mineral elements, iron [Fe] and zinc [Zn] in the developing world needs urgent attention. Pearl millet is one of the best crops with many nutritional properties and is accessible to the poor. We report findings of the first attempt to mine favorable alleles for grain iron and zinc content through association mapping in pearl millet. An as...

A field experiment was conducted during the rainy (kharif) seasons of 2018 and 2019 at ICAR-Indian Agricultural Research Institute, New Delhi, to study effect crop-establishment methods enriched organic nutrient sources on growth productivity ‘Pusa Basmati 1509’ rice (Oryza sativa L.). The laid out in splitplot design with 3 replications. treatments comprised 2 main plot treatments, viz. aerobi...

Photocatalytic degradation of phenol by oxidation, utilizing doped TiO2 (Fe/TiO2) as photocatalyst in the form of immobilized thin films in a jacketed photocatalytic batch reactor was the subject of this research. Fe/TiO2 photocatalyst was successfully synthesized using sol-gel method and coated on the chosen glass substrates using the wet coating method of dip-coating. Titanium isopropoxide wa...

Contamination of the aquatic environment and living things with pollutants is increasing daily. Among these pollutants, heavy metals come to forefront regarding toxicological public health due their widespread use, toxicity, resistance degradation, as well accumulation biomagnification in food chain. The study aimed determine essential (Cr, Cu, Fe, Mn, Ni, Zn) non-essential (As, Al, Cd, Pb) met...

Two 28-d experiments were conducted to evaluate the efficacy of low dietary concentrations of Cu as Cu-proteinate compared with 250 ppm Cu as CuSO4 with growth performance, plasma Cu concentrations, and Cu balance of weanling swine as the criteria. In the production study (Exp. 1), 240 crossbred pigs that averaged 19.8 d of age and 6.31 kg BW initially were group-fed (two or three pigs per pen)...
