Active Peak

Among the animals of different species chickens react in greater numbers and more noticeable to a va-riety of growth biostimulators. There are great improvements on their general state, growth spurts and development of internal organs is quicker when they are injected with small portions. Such stimulation has a great influence not only on growth and development of chickens in their first period of life but also on health and productivity later on. The most active peak of reaction is when chicken is two months old. Their internal organs, especially the digestive system, develop earlier, their genitals appear earlier and they begin egg-laying much earlier too, when chickens are being fed those biostimulants. Slaughter meat yield becomes more and quality of meat improves with the influence of stimulators. A major disease pre-vention and healing effect can be reached, since most of the biostimulants raise immune system and re-sistance of the organism. It can be the only thing to justify their usage on animals. Tests show that the most typical growth spurt of birds is from fifteen to twenty percent in normal conditions. Growth spurts are also accompanied with the rise of resistance to different infections and activation of different physio-logical processes. Growth spurts can be twice or more than written here, but those spurts are usually short-timed and often accompanied with the dysfunction of different organs

The Impact

This paper studies the trends of foreign immigrants in Asia and their effect on the growth of the Singapore economy. The paper also discusses the key labor market trends and the rationale for foreign workers in a small open economy like Singapore. Further, the paper highlights key simulations of the impact of foreign immigrants on output growth and wage gap for the Singapore economy by using Thangavelu's (2011) dynamic general equilibrium model. The study accounts for the flow of skilled and unskilled foreign workers on (a) steady-state growth; (b) the wage gap between the skilled and unskilled workers; and (c) innovation capabilities of the domestic economy. Further, the model also accounts for the contribution of immigrants on the welfare of the domestic economy through the immigration surplus that will accrue to the domestic economy.

AbstractThe early growth of chemically vapor deposited TiN and TiC coatings on pyrolytic graphite was studied in the kinetic- and mass transport-controlled regimes. While steady-state growth of these coatings results in columnar grains, such morphologies do not originate at the substrate/coating interface. Rather, TiC deposition begins on the substrate as fine grains less than 100 nm in diameter. Early TiN growth occurs in layers of 50 nm grains. In both cases, early fine-grained growth occurs at a lower rate than the linear, steady rate observed for columnar growth. A laser scattering technique has been developed as a tool for characterizing early growth through surface roughness. This noncontact method can be used as an in-situ diagnostic to detect changes in the surface of the growing deposit.

Sudan Gezira

Growth analysis of cotton crops sown in the Sudan Gezira at monthly intervals between August and May revealed a marked seasonal pattern of growth. Irrespective of plant age and fruiting state growth of non-senescent plants was slowest during the cool winter months. Relative growth rates of young plants were highest in August, September and early October due to the high specific leaf areas and fairly high net assimilation rates found then. They were lowest when minimum temperatures were lowest. Net assimilation rates were also lowest in the coolest months, probably as a result of restricted growth. High temperatures in the spring reduced fruiting. It is concluded that low minimum temperatures and high evaporation rates are both associated with slow growth, and play a large part in determining the characteristic decline of growth rates of cotton sown at the usual date in August.I wish to thank the Chief of the Research Division, Ministry of Agriculture, Sudan, for permission to publish this paper and to record my gratitude to the team of field and laboratory assistants, especially Salih Saad and Hassan Osman, who helped in the work.

The anisotropic functionalities of nanostructured silicates are highly attractive for various applications, whereas the silicates’ nanostructure heavily relies on the reactions in low temperature liquid conditions. Due to the stubborn [SiO4][Formula: see text] lattice foundation and most surfactants’ thermal instability, it is extremely difficult to manipulate the nanostructure and preserve high energy lattice facets in the high temperature solid state growth of silicates. In this report, the polymorphs transition of Li2FeSiO4 is found to open a precious window for adsorbate–crystal interactions. By adsorbing on the intermediates of phase transition, Ethlyene glycol effectively promotes the solid-state growth of Li2FeSiO4 nanoplates at high temperature, of which the high energy (020) facet becomes the dominant and exhibits high activity for fast charge transportation. The obtained Li2FeSiO4 nanoplates show greatly enhanced reactivity for Li[Formula: see text] ions’ extraction/insertion, and exhibit excellent capacities at high current density (1–10 C) as the cathode material for lithium-ion batteries.

And Control

The activities of the proline-specific permease (PUT4) and the general amino acid permease (GAP1) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae vary 70- to 140-fold in response to the nitrogen source of the growth medium. The PUT4 and GAP1 permease activities are regulated by control of synthesis and control of activity. These permeases are irreversibly inactivated by addition of ammonia or glutamine, lowering the activity to that found during steady-state growth on these nitrogen sources. Mutants altered in the regulation of the PUT4 permease (Per-) have been isolated. The mutations in these strains are pleiotropic and affect many other permeases, but have no direct effect on various cytoplasmic enzymes involved in nitrogen assimilation. In strains having one class of mutations (per1), ammonia inactivation of the PUT4 and GAP1 permeases did not occur, whereas glutamate and glutamine inactivation did. Thus, there appear to be two independent inactivation systems, one responding to ammonia and one responding to glutamate (or a metabolite of glutamate). The mutations were found to be nuclear and recessive. The inactivation systems are constitutive and do not require transport of the effector molecules per se, apparently operating on the inside of the cytoplasmic membrane. The ammonia inactivation was found not to require a functional glutamate dehydrogenase (NADP). These mutants were used to show that ammonia exerts control of arginase synthesis largely by inducer exclusion. This may be the primary mode of nitrogen regulation for most nitrogen-regulated enzymes of S. cerevisiae.
