Isolated mouse liver mitochondria were incubated in two types of P(32)-labelled sucrose-phosphate buffers. The first contained no added ATP or oxidizable substrate. The second contained added ATP. Samples were taken at specified times, up to 60 minutes, and analyses were made of the mitochondrial TCA-soluble inorganic P(32) and the total mitochondrial residue P(31) and P(32). The results of the...

We evaluated the effect of phosphorus application rates from various sources and in the presence or absence of filter cake on soil phosphorus, plant phosphorus, changes in acid phosphatase activity, and sugarcane productivity grown in Eutrophic Red Ultisol. Three P sources were used (triple superphosphate, Araxa rock phosphate, and Bayovar rock phosphate) and four application rates (0, 90, 180,...

canola (brassica napus l.) is one of the most important oil seed crops. in order to evaluate the effects of integrated fertilization (chemical, manure and biofertilizers) on canola (b. napus variety hyola 401) yield and uptake of mineral nutrients in saline soil and water, a field experiment was conducted in randomized complete blocks (rcbd) arrangement with eight treatments in three replicatio...

The characteristics of anaerobic phosphorus release and anoxic phosphorus uptake were investigated in sequencing batch reactors using denitrifying phosphorus removing bacteria (DPB) sludge. The lab-scale experiments were accomplished under conditions of various nitrite concentrations (5.5, 9.5, and 15 mg/L) and mixed liquor suspended solids (MLSS) (1844, 3231, and 6730 mg/L). The results obtain...

Changes in the oral intake of phosphorus could induce the reported changes in the serum concentration of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-(OH)2D) by inducing changes in its production rate (PR) or metabolic clearance rate (MCR), or both. To investigate these possibilities, we employed the constant infusion equilibrium technique to measure the PR and MCR of 1,25-(OH)2D in six healthy men in whom th...

BACKGROUND Serum phosphorus concentrations are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and mortality in patients with renal insufficiency. This association has also been reported in Western individuals without chronic kidney disease (CKD). OBJECTIVE It is unclear, however, whether this correlation occurs in Korean individuals without CKD, who usually ingest less phos...

(31)P Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) was assessed to investigate the phosphorus-containing compounds present in the tissues of the scleractinian coral Stylophora pistillata as well as of cultured zooxanthellae (CZ). Results showed that phosphorus-containing compounds observed in CZ were mainly phosphate and phosphate esters. Phosphate accounted for 19 ± 2% of the total phosphorus compounds ob...

Musilova A., Lichovnikova M., Kupcikova L., Anderle V. (2017): Effect of suboptimal levels of non-phytate phosphorus and exogenous phytase on precaecal digestibility of phosphorus and calcium in laying hens. Czech J. Anim. Sci., 62, 473–481. The precaecal digestibility of phosphorus and calcium in laying hens was evaluated at two dietary levels of non-phytate phosphorus (NPP; 1.58 and 2.03 g/kg...

Nutrients can determine the outcome of the competition between different floating plant species. The response of floating plants to current phosphorus levels may be affected by previously experienced phosphorus concentrations because some species have the ability to store excess phosphorus for later use. This might have an impact on their competition. Here, we investigate the effect of previous...

A six wk feeding experiment was conducted with d-old four hundred broiler chicks (Ven Cobb) to determine the effects of microbial phytase (Allzyme) supplementation in soybean meal based broiler diet containing low phosphorous. These birds were randomly divided into four dietary treatment groups of 100 broilers each. Each treatment group was further sub-divided into five replicates of 25 broiler...
