Abstract:
A series of experiments were conducted in 2003 in the Upper Gila River Valley in Safford, AZ to evaluate several different formulations of the plant growth regulator (PGR) Pix manufactured by BASF. Two experiments were conducted at the Safford Agricultural Center (SAC) while the third was conducted on a grower-cooperator field in the same valley. Experiments conducted at SAC involved evaluating the four formulations of Pix (Pix, Pix Plus, Pix Ultra, and Pentia) in a standard (STD) treatment regime and a low rate multiple (LRM) regime. The untreated control plots in both the LRM and STD experim

Abstract:
The water industry recognises significant cost advantages in recycling sewage sludge (biosolids) to agricultural land compared with alternative more expensive disposal options such as incineration or landfill. A recent technique was proposed by United Utilities plc for the production of organomineral fertilisers (OMF) from biosolids granules which adds additional nitrogen to the biosolids’ nutrients to form a balanced NPK fertiliser. The aim of this research was to determine the effects in cereal and grass crops of using organomineral fertilisers (OMF) made from nutrients-enriched biosolids gr

Abstract:
Poor water solubility is characterised by low dissolution rate and consequently reduced bioavailability. Formulation of solid dispersion of the drug has attracted considerable interest as a means of improving dissolution process of a range of poorly water soluble drugs. This current study investigates the formulation of solid dispersion for a range of poorly water soluble drugs with varying physicochemical properties including paracetamol, sulphamethoxazole, phenacetin, indomethacin, chloramphenicol, phenylbutazone and succinylsulphathiazole. Solid dispersions were prepared using various drugs

Abstract:
Cotton crop response was evaluated using the growth regulator FIX in a conventional liquid formulation compared to an equivalent rate of a newly developed dry flowable (DF) formulation. The DF formulation will be available in 1996 in water soluble packets with each 57 gram packet the equivalent of one pint liquid PIX. Both formulations regulated plant height and height:node ratios equally.

Parasites in the restricted sense are those members of the animal kingdom which derive their means of well-being from other members of the animal kingdom, at the same time depriving their host of some (sometimes all) of its well-being.

These diseases affect not only impoverished people in remote countries but they can be important health problems for rich and poor throughout the world.

This thesis examines the housing market, focusing upon the manner in which housing strategies are formulated by local authorities. The case for housing strategies which examine the needs and demands of all housing tenures has been recognised since 1977. At that time, the introduction of Housing Investment Programme and Strategies attempted to focus local housing policy and production in a strategic manner but since then the strategic policy elements have been continuously eroded. Moreover, since 1977 the housing market has changed considerably. The situation that exists at present is one where

Paracetamol is currently the analgesic / antipyretic which is most commonly used. It is inexpensive, available without prescription and is relatively safe in therapeutic doses. Since toxic effects are so rare, paracetamol is the drug of choice for treating pain and fever in children. The poor water-solubility of paracetamol, as well as its bitter taste, complicates the formulation of oral paediatric preparations. It has been shown that ethanol increases the risk of paracetamol-induced hepatotoxicity and that its use should be avoided. Various co-solvents were considered as alternative to ethan

Diclofenac sodium is a non-steroidal, anti-inflammatory drug used for the relief of pain and inflammation.

This formulation is easier to swallow, therefore enhancing patient compliance. The aim of this study was to develop a stable diclofenac sodium dispersible tablet for easier oral administration.

The systemic nature of the fungicide may confer protection of plants from disease during the early stages of development. However, application rates are limited to between 1 and 7 g active ingredient (AI) per 100 kg of seed due to seed application causing reduced germination and stunting during early plant develo

Abstract:
This thesis formulates and evaluates a mathematical model from an engineer's point of view based on the currently-known information-processing processes and structures of biological neurons. The specification and evaluation of the RealNeuron model form a baseline for current use in engineering solutions and future developments. The RealNeuron is a carefully-reduced model that retains the essential features of more complex models. A systems engineering approach is used to formulate it, i.e. the model is described as using multiple resolution levels with configurable modular elements at each re

Abstract:
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different penetration enhancers containing essential fatty acids (EFAs) on the transdermal delivery of flurbiprofen. Flurbiprofen was used as a marker / model compound. Fatty acids were chosen as penetration enhancers for their ability to reversibly increase skin permeability through entering the lipid bilayers and disrupting their ordered domains. Fatty acids are natural, non-toxic compounds (Karande & Mitragotri, 2009:2364). Evening primrose oil, vitamin F and Pheroid™ technology all contain fatty acids and were compared using a cream ba
