The effects of pulse treatments with 0.2 mM silver thiosulfate complex (STS), 5 and 10% sucrose, 0.2% calcium chloride (CaCl2) their combinations on the vase life soluble carbohydrate aurone levels in cut snapdragon (Antirrhinum majus) flowers were investigated. In treatment, treated these chemical solutions for 24 h before being transferred to distilled water. uptake solution was decreased STS...

backgrounds and aims: stroke incidence rate has increased during the past 2 decades. the question of whether calcium, chloride, potassium, sodium levels are associated with stroke has remained controversial. the present study aimed to evaluate the serum levels of potassium, sodium, calcium, and chloride within stroke patients. materials and methods: the study participants consisted of 53 cconse...

the effects of salinity and supplied calcium chloride on growth and leaf ions concentration of tomato (lycopersicon esculentum l.) were investigated in gorgan, iran. a factorial experiment was conducted based on rcbd with four nacl levels (0, 50, 100, and 150 mm) and four cacl2 levels (0, 100, 200 and 300 mg l-1). data of growth, yield and leaf’s ca, k, and na content were subjected to analyze ...

Nine volatile hydrocarbons, as well as methyl chloride, carbonyl sulphide and carbon disulphide, have been identified by mass spectrometry as products of Agaricus bisporus in the compost used in comerical mushroom beds. Of these, only ethylene showed a pattern of production that could be correlated with developmental phases of the crop, high levels being produced whenever fruit bodies were rapi...

oral supplementation with 50, 100 and 150 ?g/ml calcium chloride to the fifth stadium larvae of csr2xcsr4 biovoltine hybrid silkworm, b. mori on fat body glycogen, protein, and total lipids and haemolymph trehalose and protein have been studied. one of the four normal feeds per day was substituted with treated leaves fed to silkworms at fifth instar larvae. the controls were fed with the leaves...

effect of calcium chloride on tomato quality and shelf life of petoearly ch, koral and rio grand tomato cultivars were studied at the agricultural and natural resources research center of west azerbaijan, iran over 2002-2003. a calcium chloride solution in 0,0.5% and 1% concentrations was sprayed on the tomatoes three times. the fruit was harvested at the mature green stage and stored in cold s...

Encapsulation of probiotic bacteria with a matrix can increase their survival rate by protecting them from adverse conditions and at the same time without affecting the production of metabolites. An effort has been made to encapsulate the probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum using calcium alginate. Box-Behnken model of response surface methodology (RSM) was employed in the optimization of major en...

expansive soils are considered a worldwide problem as they cause extensive damage tocivil engineering structures. an important characteristic of expansive soils is theirsusceptibility to volume change due to the phenomenon of wetting and drying. this paperpresets the effect of pore water quality on the swelling and shrinkage behavior of anexpansive soil during wetting and drying cycles. thirty ...
