Deuterium Isotope Probing: a potential game-changer in assessing chemical persistency in soil [PDF]

, 2023
Chemical persistency studies are crucial for the regulatory risk assessment of chemicals. One of their major challenges is the formation of so-called non-extractable residues (NERs) in soil as current analytics cannot easily differentiate hazardous ...

Parameters of lactation shape as related to days-in-milk in buffaloes from two different farming systems [PDF]

Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2020
Buffaloes from intensive (farm 1 - Fm1; 438 normal, 115 short lactations) and pasture (farm 2 - Fm2; 330 + 58 lactations) system were assigned to study lactation curve via ANOVA (LSMLMW and MIXMDL) per each 10-day period (“tenday”), as well as overall ...

Effect of Cyclic Freezing-Thawing on the Shear Mechanical Characteristics of Nonpersistent Joints

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2019
The effects of freezing-thawing cycles and persistency differences have a significant impact on the shear mechanical properties of joints. In this paper, a series of joints direct shear tests were performed on freezing-thawing treated joints to ...

Genetic And Phenotypic Evaluation of Lactation Curve Parameters for Holstein Cattle in Egypt [PDF]

Journal of Animal and Poultry Production
This study examined lactation curve parameters and their genetic relationships in Holstein cows using 1,684 test-day milk yield records collected from 2017 to 2019 in Fayoum Governorate, Egypt. Wood's gamma function modeled lactation curves.
