Of the considerable body of literature variously concerned with the culture of algae there is relatively little work directed toward the particular problem of mass culture. VON WITSCH (10, 11) grew Chlorella in vertical glass cylinders of 3 cm. diameter and studied effects of carbon dioxide provision and the composition of the medium on yield and rate of growth. He achieved yields which approac...

in order to investigate the effects of soil texture and density on corm and flower yield of saffron (crocus sativus l.) an experiment was conducted as a factorial layout based on complete randomized block design with three replications at the faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad during two growing seasons of 2009-2010 and 2010-2011. treatment included 6 soil textures (clay loa...

In recent years, the nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) particles have been used successfully for the degradation of hydrocarboncompounds and remediation of other pollutants. Nevertheless, as far as we know, there is no specific study on the improvement of thegeotechnical properties of contaminated soils with hydrocarbon compounds by NZVI. This study used NZVI particles to remove gasoil in a cla...

in order to investigate the effects of common lambsquarters (chenopodium album l.) competition on corn (zea mays l.) morphological and physiological characteristics, an experiment was conducted in 2005-2006 at the research station of agricultural faculty, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran. the experimental design was split plot based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three repl...

A laboratory experiment was conducted to assess the bioaccumulation of microelements Fe 2+, Cu 2+, Zn 2+ and their effects on the growth and pigment contents of Spirulina platensis in Zarrouk’s media. The mentioned metals concentrations enhanced separately to tenfold of the Zarrouk’s content. The results indicated no differences in the dry weights for the different medias (p>0.05). A rapid incr...

objective: the study of physiological changes in recombinant cell lines provides useful information to improve production performance. in this study, we investigate the effects of an anti-cd33 chimeric igg4 expression on sp2.0 cell growth. methods: variable region genes of light and heavy chains of monoclonal antibody produced by m195 were cloned in pfuse-clig-hk and pfuse-chig-hg4 expression ...

A likelihood-based approach to density modification is developed that can be applied to a wide variety of cases where some information about the electron density at various points in the unit cell is available. The key to the approach consists of developing likelihood functions that represent the probability that a particular value of electron density is consistent with prior expectations for t...
