Abstract:
Ovine placental lactogen (oPL) is postulated to be involved in the repartitioning of maternal nutrients during pregnancy, through its effect on insulin metabolism. Ovine pancreatic insulin responses to exogenous glucose are depressed during pregnancy and this depression becomes more pronounced as gestation advances. In addition, under the hormonal environment of rising oPL and growth hormone (oGH) concentrations, maternal whole body glucose irreversible loss (GIL) increases. The percentage of GIL accounted for by uterine glucose uptake also increases with advancing gestation and increasing lit

Evidence from human and animal studies has highlighted the sensitivity of the developing fetus to environmental insults, such as maternal undernutrition, during gestation. These nutritional perturbations to the intrauterine milieu may engender a legacy of deleterious health consequences in adulthood.

Depression occurs in 15% of pregnant women and 1/3 are taking selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) as antidepressants. The neurotransmitter, serotonin, plays a critical role in modulating stress responses and early brain development. Serotonin transporter (SLC6A4) regulates extracellular serotonin levels, and an insertion/deletion variant in the promoter (5HTTLPR) is associated with depression. Maternal mood and SSRIs may program newborns’ behaviour later in life. The underlying molecular mechanism for developmental programming may involve DNA methylation, which requires methyl nutr

Two experiments investigating impacts of maternal nutrition in beef cows were conducted; 1) to test the impact of duration of global nutrient restriction and subsequent realimentation throughout gestation on placentome capillary development; and 2) to test the response of protein supplementation on blood flow to the uterus and mammary gland in late gestation. In experiment one, realimentation following varying periods of nutrient restriction had minor alterations in angiogenic factor mRNA expression of as well as vascularity in the placentome.

Biochar’s high porosity and negative surface charge allows for numerous soil and plant benefits such as increased water retention, high nutrient availability, and plant growth. By analysing biochar’s effect of all of these factors, a system can be put in place in which soils can be remediated with the proper soil amendments. This report discusses and tests the effects of varying rates of biochar on pH levels, cation exchange capacity, and nutrient exchangeability (of calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium) in soil.

Imprinted genes are a subset of loci, positioned on autosomes and the X-chromosome, which are expressed monoallelically in a parent-of-origin specific manner. The influence of such genes on the regulation of embryonic growth and postnatal energy homeostasis is well established. The parental conflict hypothesis predicts that, in utero, paternally-expressed genes will promote maternal resource acquisition and thus growth, whereas maternally-expressed genes will oppose this action, restricting resource investment in a single brood in the interests of the lifetime reproductive success of the mothe

Este trabalho busca otimizar a utilização de biomassa de macrófitas aquáticas na produção de adobe (tijolos de terra crua, secos ao sol), baseado na determinação e estudo de suas características físicas e mecânicas, assim como nas características físicas e químicas destas plantas. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida no reservatório de Salto Grande, no município de Americana - SP. Este lago está localizado em uma área com déficit de habitações de interesse social, apresentando altos índices de urbanização e industrialização, o que acarreta no seu avançado processo de eutrofização artificial, decorrente

Abstract:
Streams are complex and highly diverse ecosystems. Within the stream network, headwater streams (1st to 3rd order) are highly important. Headwaters represent most of the total length, influence the structure and functioning of higher order streams, generate most of the water flow and support higher rates of biogeochemical processing, with a higher rate of nutrient removal. Moreover, they offer high habitat diversity, both within and among streams. From all the drainage basin, it is the riparian zone which has the greatest influence in the structure and functioning of these streams. The in-fall

Abstract:
Bed filters using reactive materials are an emerging technology for on-site wastewater treatment. Chemical reactions transfer contaminants from the aqueous to the solid phase. Phosphorus is removed from domestic wastewater by sorption to filter materials, which can then be recycled to agriculture as fertilisers and soil amendments. This thesis presents long-term column and field-scale studies of nine filter materials, particularly the novel product Polonite®. Phosphorus, nitro-gen and metals were removed by the mineral-based materials to varying degrees. Polonite and Nordkalk Filtra P demonstr

ABSTRACT Modeling of bark-, sand- and activated carbon filters for treatment of greywater Susanna Ciuk Karlsson   The part of the waste water produced in a household, originating from showers, dish - and wash water, is called greywater. It is possible to treat the greywater separately from the black water (toilet water) as it is less polluted and then use it for purposes such as garden irrigation. There are various methods for purifying greywater. Here, the possibility to purify greywater using three column filters with different materials (activated carbon, pine bark and sand) was examined th

Abstract:
The chemical analysis of feed samples can be time consuming and expensive. The use of near infrared reflectance (NIR) spectroscopy was evaluated in a range of studies as a rapid technique to predict the chemical constituents in feedstuffs and compound ostrich feeds. The prediction of accurate results by NIR spectroscopy relies heavily upon obtaining a calibration set which represents the variation in the main population, accurate laboratory analyses and the application of the best mathematical procedures. This research project was designed to meet five objectives: The first objective was to de

Abstract:
All life forms require the nutrient phosphorus and it cannot be substituted by any other element. The global cycle of phosphorus is special among the major biogeochemical cycles, since it has no significant gaseous compounds and only closes every 10-100 million years. However, human activities, as application of mineral fertilizers, conversion of natural ecosystems to arable land and releases of untreated waste, intensify remarkably thephosphorus flows. The problems with linear flows of a limited resource leading to eutrophication of aquaticenvironments, for instance, have generated national e
