ACTUATION ENHANCEMENT OF A MICRO BIMORPH THERMAL ACTUATOR

...combinations. Although a silicon-aluminum (SiO2-Al) BTA exhibits superior characteristics over a limited operational range, it is found that a silicon-stainless steel (Si-SS) bimorph provides larger deflections at higher operational conditions. The practical constraints on traditional bimorph materials in extreme operating conditions arise from intrinsic material properties such as yield strength and melting temperature. Und...

Use of Nutrients and Plant Extract to Manage Okra Yellow Vein Mosaic Disease (OYVMD) in Sargodha, Punjab, Pakistan

...act, 2% multi-nutrients, silicon (1 and 1.5%) s and water as control were applied. Sabz pari showed the maximum disease incidence of 50% whereas, Indian Rachna with disease incidence of 25% exhibited the minimum DI. None of varieties showed immunity against the OYVMD. Among the treatments, multi-nutrients and garlic extract were effectively reduced the disease progression with the mean value of 7.42±0.91 and 9.05±1.06 respectively, as compared to...

Effect of Rice and Wheat Straw and K-Silicate Application on Maize Growth

...lated with the amount of silicon uptake by plants. In order to evaluate the growth and yield behavior of maize crop in response to different source of Si (straw and potassium silicate), a pot experiment was conducted at College of Agriculture, University of Sargodha, Pakistan in 2017. Different treatments including T1= control, T2= wheat straw (deficient @ 200 mg kg-1 of soil), T3 = wheat straw (adequate @ 400 mg kg-1 of soil), T4= rice straw (deficient @ 200 ...

...ddition, by applying the silicone plastination technique to the tongue, it is aimed to compare the SEM images before and after plastination. German mast geese used as study material were obtained from goose breeders. After the micro-anatomical features of the German goose tongue were determined, SEM (FEI-Quanta; FEG 250, USA) analyzes were made and their general structures were photographed. Then, silicone plastination proce...

Curcumin Phytosome as an Anti- inflammatory and Hypolipidemic in Nano-Silicon Treated Female Rats

Ghusoon Hasan Jadaan1*, Khalisa K. Khudair2

...

The oral toxicity of silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) effect the immune system and lipid profile, Curcumin Phytosome nanoparticles (CPNPs) possess several biological activities including anti-inflammatory, and hypolipidemic effects. We determined dyslipidemia and inflammatory state induced by exposure to silicon dioxide nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) in female rats could be ameliorated by the administration of Curcumin P...

Leverage of Nano-Curcumin Phytosome in Nano-Silicon Dioxide Treated Female Rats

...e aimed to determine how silicon dioxide nanoparticle (SiO2NPs) exposure to female rats affected the oxidative state. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-VIS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were used to investigate SiO2NPs and Curcumin Phytosome nanoparticles (CPNPs). Intense surface plasmon resonance at 1041 nm revealed the formation of silica nanoparticles. The two bands at 326 and 422 nm were ascribed to CPNPs, a...

The Impart and Effect of Silicon and Potassium Nitrate in Dealing with Environmental Stress on Wheat Resistance in Saline Soil

Masoumeh Hosseynikhah

...cal study of the role of silicon and potassium nitrate in dealing with environmental stresses on the resistance of wheat in saline soil. In the in vitro condition, three varieties of wheat were grown on sterile filter paper moistened with 20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 mmol/l NaCl solution. The results showed that the wheat cultivars had significant differences in terms of growth response to different concentrations of sodium chloride, and it was the most tolerant to ...

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Spraying Nano-Silica and Aqueous Rice Extract to Alleviate the Phenomenon of Redness to Barhi Cultivar Date Palm Fruits under Basrah Conditions, Iraq

... effect of spraying nano-silicone (0, 250, and 500) mg. L-1, and rice water extract (0, 50 and 100%) help alleviate and reduce this phenomenon. The results showed that using aqueous rice extract at a concentration of 100% was the most effective treatment, improving most physical and chemical characteristics of the fruit compared with the comparison treatment. However, the comparison treatment had a higher sucrose percentage and water content. The results of th...
