Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNatural Activities of 238U, 232Th and 40K in Manganese OreH. A. Abel-GhanyProblem statement: Manganese ore is widely used in much industries. Such as ore contain natural radioactive nuclides at various concentrations. If this ore contain high concentrations of natural radioactive nuclides, workers handling them might be exposed to significant levels of radiation. Therefore it is important to determine the radioactive nuclides in this ore. Approach: The natural radionuclides (238U, 232Th and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,024 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Rumen-Protected Methionine on Dairy Performance and Amino Acid Metabolism in Lactating CowsW.R. Yang, H. Sun, Q.Y. Wang et al.Problem statement: Free Met as one of the most limiting AA in dairy cows would be mostly degraded in the rumen. This study was to determine the effect of different levels of Rumen-Protected Met (RPMet) on dairy performance and serum amino acid metabolism. Approach: Thirty-six Holstein cows in similar condition were randomly assigned to six experimental treatments with six replicates … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,262 accessesView PDFCite
