The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of various doses of essential oils (EO) of thyme (TEO) or cinnamon (CEO) on in vitro rumen degradation of protein of a commercial total mixed ratio (TMR) containing 16.4% crud protein (CP). Treatments were TMR without any of EOs (control); control plus 25 µL of TEO (TEO25); control plus 50 µL of TEO (TEO50); control plus 25 µL of CEO (CEO25) ...

thin films of binary bi 0 -teo and bi 0 -v 0 systems were prepared by the thermal co-evaporation technique in a vacuum at room temperature. the optical absorption edge of these systems are studied in the wavelength of 200-800 nm using a perkin-elmer uv/vis spectrophotometer. it is found that the value of n=3/2 in the davis-mott equation is best fitted for the fundamental absorption edge for the...

Methods: Thirteen analytes were measured using serum from dogs and cats. Observed total error (TEo) was calculated based on coefficient of variation (CV) and bias. TEo was compared with allowable total error (TEa). Canine and feline samples were collected and measured in five small clinical sites and one reference site. Passing-Bablok regression and Bland-Altman analysis were used to compare PT...

Biochemical, genetic, enzymatic and molecular approaches were used to demonstrate, for the first time, that tellurite (TeO(3) (2-)) toxicity in E. coli involves superoxide formation. This radical is derived, at least in part, from enzymatic TeO(3) (2-) reduction. This conclusion is supported by the following observations made in K(2)TeO(3)-treated E. coli BW25113: i) induction of the ibpA gene ...

This study proposes an effective angry speech detection approach employing the TEO-based feature extraction. Decorrelation processing is applied to the TEO-based feature to increase model training ability by decreasing the correlation between feature elements and vector size. Minimum classification error training is employed to increase the discrimination between the angry speech model and othe...

A systematic set of borotellurite glasses doped with manganese (1-x) [(B(2)O(3))(0.3)(TeO(2))(0.7)]-xMnO, with x = 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 mol%, were successfully synthesized by using a conventional melt and quench-casting technique. In this study, the remelting effect of the glass samples on their microstructure was investigated through density measurement and FT-IR spectra and evaluated by XRD ...

Teager Energy Operator (TEO) proposed by Kaiser and Teager is based on a definition of energy required to generate the signal. TEO gives us the running estimate of energy as a function of amplitude and instantaneous frequency content of the signal. However, it considers three consecutive samples to calculate the energy estimate. In this paper, we suggests an alternative and generalized approach...

While lesions of visual areas V4 and TEO only modestly affect discrimination of isolated objects, they significantly impair the ability to selectively attend to an object surrounded by distracters. To test whether such deficits result from a loss of inputs to higher order areas, we recorded from area TE neurons after removing portions of V4 and TEO in a monkey. Responses to isolated targets in ...
