common burnet (poterium sanguisorba) is a perennial herb from rose family (rosaceae) which is used to construct pastures. the studied plant can resist against freezing, cool and drought. the present study was conducted to study the seed germination parameters of common burnet in different thermal treatments as completely randomized design in 4 replications in 2013. treatments involved the effec...

biosolids must be stabilized in order to reduce odors, which have been noted as a major concernwith respect to alkaline stabilization. stabilization is designed to address potential putrefaction processes,odiferous releases and vector attraction concerns. also, most alkaline processes are open systems in whichtemperature and mixing are more difficult to control, and factors such as increased pr...

the evaluation of treatment characteristics and sludge properties of an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (uasb) process was investigated using a pilot-scale 1.15 m3reactor. the uasb, inoculated with digester sludge, was operated at a hydraulic retention time of 8 h at sewage temperatures ranging from 10.6 to 27.7 °c for more than 1100 days. the stable removal efficiencies for total codcr and ss ...

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...

in suspension polymerization, particle size distribution of polymer is the outcome of dynamic equilibrium between the break up and coalescence phenomena. the rates of break up and coalescence and consequently polymerization stability depend on several parameters, the most important of which are type and concentration of stabilizer. in this study, the effects of type and concentration of stabili...

in order to investigate the effect of different temperature of anesthetic (clove tree) and recover (anesthetic-free water) solutions on recovery process, the anesthetic induction times and recovery times of 540 fingerlings of rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss) weighing 3.2 ± 0.2 g in anesthesia/ recovery solutions with cross-combined of temperature of 5,11 and 17 °c as experimental treatments ...

abstract saffron (crocus sativus, l.) is one of the most important economical crops for khorasan farmers. almost all saffron yield in iran comes from khorasan provinces. first irrigation times is the crucial factors which affect the amount and quality of yield based upon an on farm investigation it was found that when air temperature reaches to 12 ۫c the most amount of flower is yielded. also it...

abstract cyanide is a colorless, harmful, and dangerous substance with a smell similar to bitter almond. cyanide forms a stable compound with iron and magnesium and interferes with cell activity by interfering with respiration, carbon stabilization and nitrate revival. in order to evaluate cyanide metabolism in fuji and abassi mashhad apples, a factorial experiment was conducted as split plot b...

background: to compare the effectiveness of 3 commercial gel bait formulations containing fipronil (goliath ã cockroach gel 0.05% ai), chlorpyrifos-a (clean bait ã gel, 2% ai), and chloropyrifos-b (serpa ã gel 2% ai) against german cock­roaches ( blattella germanica ) when stored at 23°c and 30° c after treatment. methods: laboratory bioassays consisted of placing groups of fifteen cockroaches ...
