The concentration of nutrients in plant is related to the soil, fertilization, climate, season, cultivar and cultural practices. Aiming to evaluate the soil chemical properties, the dry matter production of shoots and roots, nutrient content in the plant and the chemical composition of the grass Tierra Verde subjected to levels of organic biofertilizer as nitrogen source, an experiment was conducted in a greenhouse at the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine , UNESP, Araçatuba-SP, January-September 2010. Treatments were arranged in a completely randomized design with six fertilized biofertilizer doses (0, 33, 66, 132, 264, 528 m3 ha-1) and five repetitions for three cuts. We used the model split plot, with doses of biofertilizer considered as main treatments and cuts as sub-plots. We obtained a linear response in the production of dry mass of shoots and roots to the dose of 528 m3 ha-1 of organic biofertilizer. Nitrogen fertilization influenced the soil chemical properties and levels of organic matter, sulfur, boron and manganese, and in foliar levels of phosphorus, potassium and copper. The chemical composition was not altered by the influence of organic biofertilizer doses applied to the soil.

he present model of agriculture is based on intensive use of industrial inputs, due to its rapid response, but it brings harmful consequences to the environment, and it is necessary the use of modern inputs. And an alternative is the use of rock biofertilizers in agriculture, a product easy to use, with higher residual effect and does not harm the environment. The objective of study was to evaluate the inoculation and co-inoculation of different microorganisms in the solubilization of rock phosphate and potash ground microbial evaluating the best performance in the production of biofertilizers comparing with rocks pure in soil chemical properties and, verify effect of inoculation of the bacterium Paenibacillus polymyxa in the absorption of minerals dissolved in the development of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata [L.] Walp.). The first bioassay was conducted in Laboratory (UFRN) for 72 days in Petri dishes, where the rock powder was increased by 10% and sulfur co-inoculated and inoculated with bacterial suspension of Paenibacillus polymyxa grown in medium tryptone soy broth, Ralstonia solanacearum in medium Kelman, Cromobacterium violaceum in medium Luria-Bertani and Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans in medium Tuovinen and Kelly,and fungi Trichoderma humatum and Penicillium fellutanum in malt extract. Every 12 days, samples were removed in order to build up the release curve of minerals. The second bioassay was conducted in a greenhouse of the Agricultural Research Corporation of Rio Grande do Norte in experimental delineation in randomized block designs, was used 10 kg of an Yellow Argissolo Dystrophic per pot with the addition of treatments super phosphate simple (SS), potassium chloride (KCl), pure rock, biofertilizers in doses 40, 70, 100 and 200% of the recommendation for SS and KCl, and a control, or not inoculated with bacteria P. polymyxa. Were used seeds of cowpea BRS Potiguar and co-inoculated with the bacterial suspension of Bradyrhizobium japonicum and P. polymyxa. The first crop was harvested 45 days after planting, were evaluated in the dry matter (ADM), macronutrients (N, P, K, Ca, Mg) and micronutrients (Zn, Fe, Mn) in ADM. And the second at 75 days assessing levels of macro end micronutrients in plants and soil, and the maximum adsorption capacity of P in soil. The results showed synergism in co-inoculations with P. polymyxa+R. solanacearum and, P. polymyxa+C. violaceum solubilizations providing higher P and K, respectively, and better solubilization time at 36 days. The pH was lower in biofertilizers higher doses, but there was better with their addition to P at the highest dose. Significant reduction of maximum adsorption capacity of phosphorus with increasing dose of biofertilizer. For K and Ca was better with SS+KCl, and Mg to pure rock. There was an effect of fertilization on the absorption, with better results for P, K and ADM with SS+KCL, and N, Ca and Mg for biofertilizers. Generally, the P. polymyxa not influence the absorption of the elements in the plant. In treatments with the uninoculated P. polymyxa chemical fertilizer had an average significantly higher for weight and number of grains. And in the presence of the bacteria, biofertilizers and chemical fertilizers had positive values in relation to rock and control. The data show that the rocks and biofertilizers could meet the need of nutrients the plants revealed as potential for sustainable agriculture

Os elementos mais absorvidos em termos de porcentagem na matéria seca da cebola são o potássio e nitrogênio. Como o objetivo de avaliar a produtividade e classificação de bulbos de cultivares de cebola em função de doses de nitrogênio foi conduzido um experimento no período de junho a setembro de 2013, em Petrolina-PE. O delineamento experimental utilizado foi de blocos ao acaso no esquema fatorial 5x2, compreendendo cinco doses de nitrogênio (0; 60; 120, 180 e 240 kg ha-1) e duas cultivares (Brisa IPA-12 e Vale Ouro IPA-11), com três repetições. A cultivar Brisa IPA-12 (80,7 t ha-1) foi superior a cultivar Vale Ouro IPA-11 (77,0 t ha-1). A dose de 183,2 kg ha-1 de N promoveu a maior produtividade comercial (94,7 t ha-1). A cultivar Brisa IPA-12 apresentou maior produção de refugos (2,4 t ha-1) comparativamente a cultivar Vale Ouro IPA-11 (1,1 t ha-1). Verificou-se com o aumento das doses uma redução gradativa da produção de bulbos considerados não comerciais, sendo a menor produção de refugos estimada na dose de 167,7 kg ha-1 de N. Maior massa fresca e bulbos de diâmetro superior foram obtidos com o incremento das doses de nitrogênio

O presente trabalho objetivou avaliar o efeito de doses (1,25; 2,5; 5,0 e 10 mL L-1) de fosfito de potássio no crescimento micelial e na germinação de conídios de Fusarium solani f. sp. cucurbitae, agente causal da podridão-do-colo e raízes do meloeiro. Foram avaliadas as doses 1,25; 2,5; 5,0 e 10 mL L-1 dos fosfitos, uma testemunha apenas com água (dose ?0?) e o fungicida tebuconazol + trifloxistrobina (1,0 mL L-1). As formulações de fosfito de potássio avaliadas proporcionaram toxidez direta a F. solani f. sp. cucurbitae, apresentando efeito significativo de doses no crescimento micelial e germinação de conídios do fungo. Contudo, observou-se maior efeito das formulações de fosfitos na inibição da germinação (DL50 =1,7 e 1,1 mL-1) do que na inibição do crescimento micelial (DL50 >10 mL-1 para os dois fosfitos). Na maior dose avaliada (10 mL L-1), a inibição do crescimento micelial foi de 33% e 18%, na dose de 5 mL L-1 as formulações inibiram a germinação em 88% e 89%. O fungicida inibiu totalmente o crescimento micelial e em inibiu a germinação dos conídios em torno de 99%, diferindo dos demais tratamentos.

O presente estudo avaliou a eficiência agronômica da aplicação de pó de rochas silicatadas como fonte de potássio em cultivos consecutivos de milheto e alfafa em casa de vegetação. As rochas Biotita Xisto (BX), Sienito Ceraíma (TA15), Mafurito Acreúna (TA21), Sienito SANW (TA20), Biotita Gnaísse (EL02) e Fonolito Curimbaba (FN) foram aplicadas como fontes de potássio de liberação lenta em três doses de 1,25; 2,50 e 5,0 g de rocha moída por kg de solo. Cloreto de potássio foi utilizado como fertilizante convencional em doses de 0,10; 0,20 e 0,40 g de KCl kg-1 de solo. O solo utilizado nos experimentos foi um latossolo amarelo distrófico de textura média, com teor de potássio de 1,2 mmolc dm-3 solo. A rocha TA21 foi testada sem e com correção da acidez do solo. Com a finalidade de observar a dissolução das rochas em um ambiente com plantas foram realizados cinco cultivos consecutivos: (1) milheto (62 dias de cultivo); (2), (3) e (4) alfafa (80, 115 e 155 dias de cultivo, respectivamente) e (5) milheto, com 80 dias de cultivo. A produção de matéria seca no cultivo da alfafa foi significativamente menor do que o cultivo do milheto. As amostras de forrageira foram digeridas e quantificadas empregando o método de decomposição assistida por radiação micro-ondas com HNO3 + H2O2 para a determinação do teor de potássio extraído pelas plantas. As amostras de rochas foram caracterizadas por fluorescência de raios X, difração de raios X, microscopia eletrônica de varredura e distribuição de tamanho das partículas e submetidas a ensaios com solução extratora Mehlich-1, ácido acético e ácido fumárico 0,05mol L-1, em diferentes tempos de extração. Todos os extratos foram quantificados por espectrometria de emissão óptica com plasma acoplado indutivamente (ICP OES), sendo determinados os teores de Al, Ca, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P e Zn. O método da resina trocadora de íons foi aplicado para todas as amostras de rochas avaliadas, sendo quantificados K, Ca, Mg e P. Potássio solúvel foi determinado por fotometria de chama após extração com água quente, método oficial do Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento (MAPA). Para extração drástica foram avaliados dois métodos de decomposição assistida por radiação microondas: com uso de água régia e água régia invertida com adição de H2O2 e 2 etapas de pré-decomposição. Os elementos Al, Ca, K, Mg, Mn, Na e Zn foram quantificados por ICP OES e os resultados obtidos foram comparados por meio do teste t pareado, que indicou não haver diferença significativa entre os métodos de decomposição no intervalo de 95% de confiança. A partir das concentrações obtidas nas extrações e da quantidade de potássio extraída nos cultivos foi realizado o cálculo de correlação entre os extratores e as plantas, considerando a eficiência agronômica. O uso da calagem nos solos que receberam adição da rocha TA21 influenciou significativamente a absorção de potássio, sendo que foi observado efeito relativo à liberação de K apenas quando essa rocha foi adicionada ao solo sem tratamento prévio com a calagem. A ordem decrescente de eficiência de extração de potássio, considerando o total aplicado nos tratamentos e o K extraído pelas plantas foi EL02 > TA21-SC > KCl > FN> BX> TA20 > TA15 > TA21. Os dois métodos de decomposição desenvolvidos apresentaram melhor correlação com o potássio extraído das rochas EL02. O estudo de casa de vegetação corroborou com os ensaios de extração realizados em laboratório, que indicaram que a rocha EL02 é a que possui o maior percentual de liberação de K em relação às demais rochas avaliadas.

Objective: To determine the effect of zinc supplementation on taste perception in a group of hemodialysis patients. Design and Setting: Double-blind randomized placebo-controlled study in a teaching hospital dialysis unit. Patients: Fifteen stable hemodialysis patients randomized to placebo (6 male, 2 female; median age, 67; range, 30 to 72 years) or treatment (5 male, 2 female; median age, 60; range, 31 to 76 years). Intervention: Treatment group received zinc sulfate 220 mg per day for 6 weeks, and the placebo group received an apparently identical dummy pill. Main Outcome Measures: Taste scores by visual analogue scales, normalized protein catabolic rate and plasma, whole blood and red cell zinc levels. Results: At baseline, sweet and salt tastes were identified correctly by both groups. Sour was often confused with salt. Sour solutions of different concentrations were not distinguishable. Taste scores were not different after 6 weeks for either group. There was no significant increment in zinc levels or normalized protein catabolic rate for either group. Conclusion: We found a disturbance of taste perception in hemodialysis patients, particularly for the sour modality, which was not corrected by this regimen of zinc supplementation. These results cast doubts on the conclusions of earlier studies that indicated an improvement in taste after zinc supplementation.

The risk of vitamin D insufficiency is increased in persons having limited sunlight exposure and dietary vitamin D. Supplementation compliance might be improved with larger doses taken less often, but this may increase the potential for side effects. The objective of the present study was to determine whether a weekly or weekly/monthly regimen of vitamin D supplementation is as effective as daily supplementation without increasing the risk of side effects. Participants were forty-eight healthy adults who were randomly assigned for 3 months to placebo or one of three supplementation regimens: 50 μg/d (2000 IU/d, analysed dose 70 μg/d), 250 μg/week (10 000 IU/week, analysed dose 331 μg/week) or 1250 μg/week (50 000 IU/week, analysed dose 1544 μg/week) for 4 weeks and then 1250 μg/month for 2 months. Daily and weekly doses were equally effective at increasing serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D, which was significantly greater than baseline in all the supplemented groups after 30 d of treatment. Subjects in the 1250 μg treatment group, who had a BMI >26 kg/m2, had a steady increase in urinary Ca in the first 3 weeks of supplementation, and, overall, the relative risk of hypercalciuria was higher in the 1250 μg group than in the placebo group (P= 0·01). Although vitamin D supplementation remains a controversial issue, these data document that supplementing with ≤ 250 μg/week ( ≤ 10 000 IU/week) can improve or maintain vitamin D status in healthy populations without the risk of hypercalciuria, but 24 h urinary Ca excretion should be evaluated in healthy persons receiving vitamin D3 supplementation in weekly single doses of 1250 μg (50 000 IU).

The relationship between social background and achievement has preoccupied educational researchers since the mid-20th century with major studies in the area reaching prominence in the late 60s. Despite five decades of research and innovation since, recent studies using OECD data have shown that the relationship is strengthening rather than weakening. In this paper, the systematic destabilisation of public education in Australia is examined as a philosophical problem stemming from a fundamental shift in political orientation, where “choice” and “aspiration” work to promote and disguise survivalism. The problem for education however extends far deeper than the inequity in Federal government funding. Whilst this is a major problem, critical scrutiny must also focus on what states can do to turn back aspects of their own education policy that work to exacerbate and entrench social disadvantage.

The appropriateness of applying drink driving legislation to motorcycle riding has been questioned as there may be fundamental differences in the effects of alcohol on these two activities. For example, while the distribution of blood alcohol content (BAC) levels among fatally injured male drivers compared to riders is similar, a greater proportion of motorcycle fatalities involve levels in the lower (0 to .10% BAC) range. Several psychomotor and higher-order cognitive skills underpinning riding performance appear to be significantly influenced by low levels of alcohol. For example, at low levels (.02 to .046% BAC), riders show significant increases in reaction time to hazardous stimuli, inattention to the riding task, performance errors such as leaving the roadway and a reduced ability to complete a timed course. It has been suggested that alcohol may redirect riders’ focus from higher-order cognitive skills to more physical skills such as maintaining balance. As part of a research program to investigate the potential benefits of introducing a zero, or reduced, BAC for all riders in Queensland regardless of their licence status, the effects of low doses of alcohol on balance ability were investigated in a laboratory setting. The static balance of ten experienced riders was measured while they performed either no secondary task, a visual search task, or a cognitive (arithmetic) task following the administration of alcohol (0; 0.02, and 0.05% BAC). Subjective ratings of intoxication and balance impairment increased in a dose-dependent manner; however, objective measures of static balance were negatively affected only at the .05% BAC dose. Performance on a concurrent secondary visual search task, but not a purely cognitive (arithmetic) task, improved postural stability across all BAC levels. Finally, the .05% BAC dose was associated with impaired performance on the cognitive (arithmetic) task, but not the visual search task, when participants were balancing, but neither task was impaired by alcohol when participants were standing on the floor. Implications for road safety and future ‘drink riding’ policy considerations are discussed.

Stereotactic radiosurgery treatments involve the delivery of very high doses for a small number of fractions. To date, there is limited data in terms of the skin dose for the very small field sizes used in these treatments. In this work, we determine relative surface doses for small size circular collimators as used in stereotactic radiosurgery treatments. Monte Carlo calculations were performed using the BEAMnrc code with a model of the Novalis 15 Trilogy linear accelerator and the BrainLab circular collimators. The surface doses were calculated at the ICRU skin dose depth of 70 m all using the 6 MV SRS x-ray beam. The calculated surface doses varied between 15 – 12% with decreasing values as the field size increased from 4 to 30 mm. In comparison, surface doses were measured using Gafchromic EBT3 film positioned at the surface of a Virtual Water phantom. The absolute agreement between calculated and measured surface doses was better than 2.5% which is well within the 20 uncertainties of the Monte Carlo calculations and the film measurements. Based on these results, we have shown that the Gafchromic EBT3 film is suitable for surface dose estimates in very small size fields as used in SRS.

The main aim of the present study was to estimate size segregated doses from e-cigarette aerosols as a function of the airway generation number in lung lobes.. After a 2-second puff, 7.7×1010 particles (DTot) with a surface area of 3.6×103 mm2 (STot), and 3.3×1010 particles with a surface area of 4.2×103 mm2 were deposited in the respiratory system for the electronic and conventional cigarettes, respectively. Alveolar and tracheobronchial deposited doses were compared to the ones received by non-smoking individuals in Western countries, showing a similar order of magnitude. Total regional doses (DR), in head and lobar tracheobronchial and alveolar regions, ranged from 2.7×109 to 1.3×1010 particles and 1.1×109 to 5.3×1010 particles, for the electronic and conventional cigarettes, respectively. DR in the right-upper lung lobe was about twice that found in left-upper lobe and 20% greater in right-lower lobe than the left-lower lobe.
