Hypokalemia is frequently encountered in clinical practice. It can be due to either potassium deficiency (inadequate potassium intake or excessive potassium loss) or to net potassium shifts from the extracellular to the intracellular compartment. Inadequate dietary intake of potassium alone rarely causes hypokalemia since kidney is able to lower potassium excretion below 15 mmol per day. Hypoka...

in order to determine the effect of potassium silicate solution with elements of macro and micro elements on agronomic traits of rice, tarom, a field experiment in paddy fields galogah city - village marbles of the crop year 2014 was conducted. the results showed that the highest plant height (013/180 cm) to 2 liters per hectare and no interaction effects of potassium silicate elements. the res...

a split plot experiment based on complete block design with three replications was carried out to evaluate the effect of irrigation and potassium fertilizer on yield and yield components of green beans, in 2011 at ahvaz. two levels of irrigation (normal irrigation and drought) and four levels of potassium sulfate fertilizer (0, 25, 50 and 100 kg ha-1) were evaluated in this study. the results o...

in order to study the effects of potassium application on uptake and allocation of nitrogen and seed protein on two lentil cultivars in rain-fed condition a factorial experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted at ardabil research center for agriculture and natural resources, in 2008. three potassium levels (0, 30 and 60 kg.ha-1), three nitrogen le...

background: application of potassium ferrate is a chemical oxidation approach used for water and wastewater treatment. the aim of this study is to apply central composite design (ccd) and response surface methodology (rsm) to optimize potassium ferrate consumption in the treatment of wastewater from carpet industries. methods: samples in this experimental study were collected from wastewater, o...

Serum potassium is routinely measured at admission for acute heart failure (AHF), but information on association with clinical variables and prognosis is limited. Potassium measurements at admission were available in 1,867 patients with AHF in the original cohort of 2,033 patients included in the Patients Hospitalized with acute heart failure and Volume Overload to Assess Treatment Effect on Co...

Regulation of intracellular and extracellular potassium concentration is a fundamental process vital for cellular metabolism. Potassium intake, from the diet, is carefully balanced with excretion of potassium via the renal tract and gastrointestinal losses. Following a potassium load, extra-renal buffering of potassium occurs in peripheral tissues prior to its excretion. Thus potassium regulati...

This study evaluated the effects of sodium chloride reduction and replacement with potassium chloride or modified potassium chloride based salts using a weight or molar equivalent basis on the sensory and physico-chemical properties of pork sausage patties. Three independent replications of pork sausage patties were manufactured to compare five treatments: full sodium, reduced sodium, modified ...

The synthesis of orthoferrites the type La1−xCexFeO3+x/2, x = 0.00, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05, and 0.07, by applying a simple effective mechanochemical transformation from constituent oxides is presented. Physicochemical methods such as powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–Vis spectroscopy, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) adsorption were applied to gain information abo...
