for finding out the effect of nitrogen and calcium carbonate fertilizers on nitrate and nitrogen accumulation in aboveground biomass, calcium concentration and dry weight of leaves of satureja hortensis l., a factorial experiment was carried out based on randomized complete block design with three replications in karaj in 2008. the nitrogen fertilizer was in four levels (0, 50, 100 and 150 kg. ...

The effect of histamine H2-receptor antagonist (famotidine) on the phosphorus-binding abilities of calcium carbonate and calcium lactate were examined in 13 chronic hemodialysis patients. In seven patients receiving calcium carbonate, famotidine (20 mg/d) was given because of gastroduodenal disorders, and calcium carbonate was replaced with calcium lactate as a phosphorus binder after 4 wk of t...

Calcium carbonate is a versatile mineral with diverse industrial applications. Drying is a necessary processing step in preparation of calcium carbonate product. Deep knowledge of drying kinetics is required in order to design an appropriate dryer. The main aim of the present study was to investigate the drying kinetics of calcium carbonate, experimentally. Thirteen empirical correlations with ...

transport of pathogenic bacteria has been recently considered a major source surface and subsurface water contaminations. soil could affect transport or filtering of bacteria depending on its physical and chemical properties. calcium carbonate and calcium sulfate are two important minerals of arid and semi-arid soils that their effect on bacteria transport has not been investigated, yet. in thi...

droxide by calcium carbonate. The calcium carbonate dosage ranged from 3 to 6 g/day. They found that low-calcium dialysate induces a negative calcium balance during hemodialysis (HD) with a worsening of SHPTH and concluded that a change in the current policy of the treatment of renal osteodistrophy can be necessary to prevent these alterations. For 1 yr, we studied the effect oflow-calcium dial...

Bladder cancer has been cited to result from the neoplastic lesion with environmental and/or occupational factors identified as causatives. Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is the most common type of bladder cancer. Most of the bladder cancer patients die from the invasive, metastatic TCC that has turned out to be resistant to chemotherapy. T24 cells, a cell line established from a human urina...

The feasibility of calcium carbonate cements involving the recrystallisation of metastable calcium carbonate varieties has been demonstrated. Calcium carbonate cement compositions presented in this paper can be prepared straightforwardly by simply mixing water (liquid phase) with two calcium carbonate phases (solid phase) which can be easily obtained by precipitation. An original cement composi...

Nanoparticles and nanotechnology have been applied in agriculture, including for plant nutrition improvement, and pest control. Little research has been conducted on nano-calcium carbonate in plant protection and nutrition. In this study, we compared the effects of nano-calcium carbonate and colloidal calcium carbonate and found that nano-calcium carbonate treatments were better at increasing c...

BACKGROUND Sevelamer carbonate is an improved, buffered form of sevelamer hydrochloride developed for the treatment of hyperphosphataemia in CKD patients. Sevelamer carbonate formulated as a powder for oral suspension presents a novel, patient-friendly alternative to tablet phosphate binders. This study compared the safety and efficacy of sevelamer carbonate powder with sevelamer hydrochloride ...

to study the effects of scale and tillage management on variability of soil properties in adjacent lands of different tillage type, soil sampling was performed linearly along contour line from the middle position of slope with 5 m intervals. in overall, 45 soil samples were collected from a field with conventional up-down tillage and 40 samples from an adjacent filed with contour tillage. soil ...
