The effects of different levels of maltose on feed pellet water stability and nutrient leaching were studied. Five treatments, including control with three replicates with setup (0.0, 20, 25, 30 and 35%). Pellet leaching rates were used to indicate pellet water stability. The results show that the presence of maltose in the diets significantly improved pellet water stability (p<0.05), but the l...

Hexazinone [3-cyclohexyl-6-(dimethylamino)-l-methyl-l,Z,5-tria~in~2,4,(lH,ZH)-dione] was tested in the 2, 1, and 0.5 cc size uellet (10% ai) against very small stems [average height, 1.97m; average ground line diameter (GLD), 2 cm] of water oak, Quercus nigra L., at 1.12 and 2.24 kg/ha on a sandy loam soil. First year defoliation of water oak by the 0.5 cc pellet at 2.24 kg/ha was significantly...

We tested the hypothesis that endometriosis can be induced in baboons more successfully by intra-pelvic injection of the pellet of menstrual endometrium when compared to its supernatant. Menstrual endometrium, separated into pellet (n = 5) and supernatant fractions ( n = 8), or phosphate buffered saline (1 ml, n = 7, controls) was injected laparoscopically into the pelvis. During laparoscopy 25...

Testosterone replacement therapy is a treatment utilized for male hypogonadism. A subcutaneous testosterone pellet is a long-acting, slow-release delivery system that can be utilized as androgen replacement therapy. A 77-year-old man who was treated with testosterone pellets developed dermatitis consisting of erythematous plaques and patches on both buttocks and thighs within 28 days following ...

Torrefaction of biomass pellets is considered as a useful pretreatment technology in order to convert them into a high quality solid biofuel that is more suitable for pyrolysis, gasification, combustion, and co-firing applications. In the course of torrefaction, the temperature varies across the pellet, and therefore chemical reactions proceed unevenly within the pellet. However, the uniformity...

The search for newer non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and the importance of oxadiazoles as antiinflammatory agents prompted us to undertake the synthesis of some novel oxadiazole and related analogues with unreported antiinflammatory activities. The antiinflammatory potential of the compounds was investigated using the carrageenan-induced rat paw edema method and cotton pellet-indu...

A9-year-old boy was shot with a pellet shotgun and developed a visual field deficit. Head CT revealed a pellet in the left ambien cistern, in the left posterior cerebral artery on catheter angiography (figure). Chest fluoroscopy revealed multiple thoracic pellets, including a mobile cardiac pellet (video on the Neurology® Web site at Neurology.org). There was no clear cardiac injury, patent for...

A simplified calculation considering the three dimensional helical magnetic field and B ×∇B drift was carried out to study the effect of injection location on plasmoid drift. From the calculations different injection possibilities are considered around the torus for the experiment. A low speed single barrel pellet injector has been designed for alternative injection in LHD. A pellet is being in...

effect of water gas shift reaction (co+h2o=co2+h2) on wustite reduction has been investigated by a transient, non-isothermal mathematical model based on grain model. in this model, wustite porous pellet is reduced using syngas, namely a mixture of hydrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and water vapor. for this purpose, governing equations containing continuity equation of species and energy...
