Besides this, many othe...

wild barley has invaded wheat fields ever since flamprop-isopropyl was outdated in iran. newly developed herbicides such as sulfosulfuron or sulfosulfuron plus metsulfuron-methyl can control it at higher than recommended dosages, but causing significant wheat injury. hence, two dose-response experiments were conducted to evaluate their efficacy when tank-mixed with thirteen different vegetable ...

Adulteration of milk with other additives resembling in physico-chemical properties can be done. Vegetable oils, hydrogenated fats, animal body fats and their blends have been reported as adulterants in milk and milk fat products.
