This study aims to determine the optimization of cow urine liquid fertilizer on growth shallots (Allium ascalonicum L.). The research method used was an experiment using a completely randomized design (CRD), consisting 5 treatments and 4 replications, namely treatment A (0 ml urine/polybag), B (50 C (100 D (150 E (200 ml/l urine/polybag). Observations were made shallot plant height, tuber wet w...

Three lactating Holstein cows (634 to 698 kg) were dosed, respectively, with 65.6 mg (44.5 microCi/mg), 131.2 mg (20.1 microCi/mg), or 8.4 mg (141.3 microCi/mg) of [14C]nitrofurazone by intramammary, intrauterine, or topical ocular administration. Intramammary and intrauterine treatments were single doses; ocular treatment was daily for 4 consecutive d (2.1 mg/d). Cows were slaughtered after 72...

The bud chip nursery technique is a with one which commonly used in sugarcane. purpose of this study was to determine the effect concentration fermented cow urine on growth single sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum L.) cuttings. This randomized block design experiment (RAK) 5 replications and treatment levels, namely: P0 = without giving concentration; P1 Concentration 25% urine; P2 20% P3= 75%; ...

A widely abundant and invasive forest shrub, Eupatorium adenophorum, was pyrolyzed in a cost-efficient flame curtain kiln to produce biochar. The resulting biochar fulfilled all the requirements for premium quality, according to the European Biochar Certificate. The biochar was either applied alone or mixed with fresh cow urine (1:1 volume) to test its capacity to serve as slow release fertiliz...

OBJECTIVES beta-Adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) phosphorylates and thereby inactivates agonist-occupied beta-adrenergic receptors (beta AR). beta ARK is thought to play an important role in the regulation of cardiac function. Therefore, we studied beta ARK activation and its inhibition in intact smooth muscle cells and in cardiomyoblasts. METHODS AND RESULTS beta AR agonist-stimulated t...

INTRODUCTION Many efforts have been made to ease the burden of malaria through vector control, among whichis the development of odor-baited traps and evaluation of efficient attractants that could replace host odor. However, most traps and evaluated attractants are expensive, which poor communities cannot afford. This study was conductedwith the aim to devise asimple and affordable odor-baited ...

Twenty-four mature, nonpregnant crossbred cows were used in a 42-d feeding study to evaluate the effects of dietary cation-anion difference (DCAD) on performance, dry matter intake, and pH of blood, urine, and uterine flushing. All cows were housed individually and provided free-choice access to bahiagrass hay and a corncottonseed meal supplement. Two treatments were randomly allocated to cows ...
