Assessment of postdialysis dry weight [PDF]
Because clinical indices of hydration state are insensitive, the estimation of correct postdialysis dry weight is still major problem. Recently, some new techniques have been introduced to assess postdialysis dry weight more accurately. The plasma concentrations of the biochemical markers atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and cGMP are related to ...

Effect of nitrogen fertilizer placement on nitrogen uptake and yield of sweet corn (Zea mays L. saccharata) : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Agricultural Science in Plant Science at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
Five placements of nitrogen fertilizer applied to sweet corn (Zea mays L. saccharata) at the four fully expanded leaf stage, that is control (no nitrogen), a band of nitrogen placed on the soil surface near the row, on the soil surface between the rows ...

Effect of zinc (Zn) and auxin (IBA) foliar application on phytohormonal variation and growth of corn (Zea mays L.) [PDF]
In order to assess corn responses to zinc compounds and auxin (Indole Butyric Acid) foliar application in shoots and roots, a pot experiment was carried out in randomized complete block design in three replications.

Rapid Measurement of Candida utilis Dry Weight with Microwave Drying
A microwave oven has been used to measure biomass concentration and construct a growth curve for Candida utilis ATCC 1084. Drying curve results show that when a sample was exposed to microwave radiation for 15 min, microwave and air oven dry weight results are within 4 mg of one another when dried at the "cook" power setting (approximately 630 W at ...

The Janus-faced aspect of 'dry weight' [PDF]
The goal of haemodialysis treatment in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients is to correct the complications of the uraemic condition. Among the main complications are fluid overload and subsequent hypertension that are corrected by achievement of 'dry weight'.

Assessment of Dry Weight in Hemodialysis [PDF]
Abstract. Fluid balance is an integral component of hemodialysis treatments to prevent under- or overhydration, both of which have been demonstrated to have significant effects on intradialytic morbidity and long-term cardiovascular complications.
