Potassium Its Biol Significance by Robert Whang Pdf
Abstract: Eleven authoritative review articles written for nutrition scientists and clinicians address various general aspects of potassium (K) metabolism, the interrelationships between K and magnesium (Mg) as applied to the heart, and clinical aspects of how K and Mg affect heart activity. While clinically-oriented, the major thrust of the reviews is toward developing an understanding of intracellular events occurring in perturbed K metabolism and the association of Mg with K metabolism. General aspects include: the role of K in biological evolution; methods for K analysis; K metabolism; nutritional factors associated with K metabolism; and the dysfunctions of hypo- and hyperkalemia. Clinical aspects include: heart function relative to cellular K fluxes; an overview of glucose-insulin-K infusion in cases of myocardial infarction; K and Mg as related to digitalis toxicity, and extra- and intracellular K, Mg, diuretics, and arrhythmias. wz).

Cancer and the New Biology of Water by Thomas Cowan Pdf
"When President Nixon launched the War on Cancer with the signing of the National Cancer Act of 1971 and the allocation of billions of research dollars, it was amidst a flurry of promises that a cure was within reach. The research establishment was trumpeting the discovery of oncogenes, the genes that supposedly cause cancer. As soon as we identified them and treated cancer patients accordingly, cancer would become a thing of the past. Fifty years later it's clear that the War on Cancer has failed--despite what the cancer industry wants us to believe. New diagnoses have continued to climb; one in three people in the United States can now expect to battle cancer during their lifetime. For the majority of common cancers, the search for oncogenes has not changed the treatment: We're still treating with the same old triad of removing (surgery), burning out (radiation), or poisoning (chemotherapy). In Cancer and the New Biology of Water, Thomas Cowan, MD, argues that this failure was inevitable because the oncogene theory is incorrect--or at least incomplete--and based on a flawed concept of biology in which DNA controls our cellular function and therefore our health. Instead, Dr. Cowan tells us, the somatic mutations seen in cancer cells are the result of a cellular deterioration that has little to do with oncogenes, DNA, or even the nucleus. The root cause is metabolic dysfunction that deteriorates the structured water that forms the basis of cytoplasmic health. Despite mainstream medicine's failure to bring an end to suffering or deliver on its promises, it remains illegal for physicians to prescribe anything other than the "standard of care" for their cancer patients, despite the fact that gentler, more effective, and more promising treatments exist"--

Guidebook to Protein Toxins and Their Use in Cell Biology by Rino Rappuoli,Cesare Montecucco Pdf
Many bacteria, animals, and plants produce toxins that can prove lethal to other organisms. Toxins are a form of "biological warfare" that helps their producer to survive and so confer an evolutionary advantage. They display an extraordinary range of complexity, from the formic acid provided by ants to bacterial proteins composed of thousands of amino acids. This Guidebook considers the more complex protein and peptide toxins and groups them according to their mode of action. Topics covered include: membrane-permeabilizing toxins; toxins affecting signal transduction and protein synthesis; cytoskeleton-affecting toxins; toxins affecting the immune and inflammatory response. This class of biomolecules will be of interest to a wide range of researchers in cell biology, neuroscience, and toxicology.
Statistical Methods in Agriculture and Experimental Biology by Roger Mead Pdf
The third edition of this popular introductory text maintains the character that won worldwide respect for its predecessors but features a number of enhancements that broaden its scope, increase its utility, and bring the treatment thoroughly up to date. It provides complete coverage of the statistical ideas and methods essential to students in agriculture or experimental biology. In addition to covering fundamental methodology, this treatment also includes more advanced topics that the authors believe help develop an appreciation of the breadth of statistical methodology now available. The emphasis is not on mathematical detail, but on ensuring students understand why and when various methods should be used. New in the Third Edition: A chapter on the two simplest yet most important methods of multivariate analysis Increased emphasis on modern computer applications Discussions on a wider range of data types and the graphical display of data Analysis of mixed cropping experiments and on-farm experiments
Biology of Mudplantain (Heteranthera Reniformis Ruiz Et Pavon) and Its Control in Flooded Rice by Francisco Jose A. Gabela Pdf
In CIAT, Centro Internacional de Agricultura Tropical, located in Palmira, Colombia, a series of experiments were conducted to study the biology and control of mudplantain (Heteranthera reniformis Ruiz et Pavon), a member of Pontederiaceae family. Mudplantain is a perennial aquatic plant which reproduces by both seeds and stolons. It is found in rice in some areas of Colombia, especially in thin rice stands, and is spreading rapidly because of its resistance to the traditional rice herbicides. The biological aspects studied were: (a) life cycle; (b) effect of light reduction on growth; (c) effect of water depth on growth; (d) germination requirements; and (e) vegetative propagation ability. The weed control experiments included the control of mudplantain in flooded rice planted with either pre-germinated or dry rice seed. The life cycle of mudplantain was observed in the field from 20 days after germination to 118 days later at 14-day intervals. It was found that fresh weight, number of nodes, number of leaves, number of capsules and length follow an approximate sigmoid curve. Capsules appear between the 48th and 62nd day after germination and their production increases progressively during the cycle. The effect of 0, 33, 53, 59, 79, 88, 96, and 100% light reduction on fresh weight, number of nodes, number of leaves, number of capsules, and capsule length observed 60 and 120 days after germination indicated that mudplantain is more adpated to grow under reduced light. Only when light is reduced by more than 75% is growth seriously inhibited. Seed germination decreased when light intensity was reduced by 88% or more. The effect of 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 cm water depths on mudplantain growth was determined in plants in the 3- and 10-leaf growth stages. Younger seedlings were more affected by water depth. However, a depth of 5 cm was the most favorable, while lower or higher depths reduced growth. This shows why mudplantain is adapted to grow in flooded rice and that it would be impossible to control mudplantain by flooding since the rice would not tolerate more than 10 cm of water in the initial stages and the weed is not killed by this or greater water depths. Results of germination trials indicated that seeds germinate only under light and that light intensity controls total germination. Light, however, had to be combined with alternating da.y/night temperatures to stimulate germination. Moist or dry chilling as well as scarifying with sandpaper or sulfuric acid, or soaking the seeds did not promote germination under dark conditions nor improve germination under light. Seed germination was affected by germination media and seeding depth. Water gave the highest germination followed by puddled soil, and then by moist soil. Seeding at soil depths greater than one centimeter prevented germination. The vegetative propagation studies demonstrated that mudplantain propagates by stolons. Regrowth ability, however, was higher for stolons with leaves and low for stolons without leaves regardless of whether or not the roots had been removed. Control studies in flooded rice showed that mudplantain generally exhibits a great resistance to herbicides. Only butachlor (2-chloro- 2', 6-diethyl-N-(butoxymethyl) aceta.nilide) at 2. 5 kg ai/ha and oxadiazon (2 -tertiobuty1-4 -(2, 4-dichloro-s -is o -propyl-oxyphenyl) 5-oxo -, 3,4-oxadiazoline) at 1.0 kg ai/ha in he dry-seeded rice experiment gave excellent control. The best control can be obtained by a rapidly established, dense rice stand growing under optimum conditions for pre-germinated rice. A dense stand and the use of chemicals is recommended for dry-seeded rice.
