Nitrogen Balance in Radiation Chimeras.

open access: yesExperimental Biology and Medicine, 1964
SummaryPositive nitrogen balance was observed in mice given 900 r total-body X-irradiation and then treated by injection of living bone marrow cells. The average level was about twice that of normal controls for 90 days after irradiation and bone marrow treatment. Mice given isologous cells showed a normal rate of gain in body weight.

Optimized management strategy increased grain yield, promoted nitrogen balance, and improved water productivity in winter wheat

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The increasing costs of agricultural production and environmental concerns reinforce the need to reduce resource inputs. Improvements in nitrogen (N) use efficiency (NUE) and water productivity (WP) are critical for sustainable agriculture.

Assessment of protein requirements by nitrogen balance [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Nutrition Society, 1969
The earliest estimates of protein requirements, such as those of Smith (1863) and Pavy (1874) who recommended about 125 g per day for the average working man, were based on studies of the diets of individuals or of groups of subjects who were considered to be healthy and leading ...
