Works Of The Famous Central Asian Scientist Abu Ali Ibn Sina In The Field Of Physics, Malokhat Akhadovna Vakhobova, Munira Ibragimovna Akhrorova Mar 2021

Works Of The Famous Central Asian Scientist Abu Ali Ibn Sina In The Field Of Physics, Malokhat Akhadovna Vakhobova, Munira Ibragimovna Akhrorova

Scientific reports of Bukhara State University

Introduction. This article examines the scientific and practical work of the sultan of the science of medicine Abu Ali ibn Sina in the field of physics. In the rare masterpieces created by Ibn Sina, his ideas about the structure of mater, the laws of dynamics, natural phenomena, the eye and vision, the historical data in the correspondence of Ibn Sina and Beruni were studied to explain the essence of the content of physics. Research methods. The actual task of physical science is the movement of bodies under the influence of the same force placed on bodies of different masses, their …

On The Composistion Of Cymodocea Nodosa Root Exudate Under Artificial Blue, Green And Natural Light Conditions, Armand Martin, Ben Manriquez, Christian Pompa, Aaron Saper, Kyle A. Grice, Jason Bystriansky

DePaul Discoveries

Seagrasses are identified as a sentinel species: a good indicator of overall marine ecosystem health and function. At the rhizome, they are known to interact with marine bacteria by exchanging energy in the form of glucose and free amino acids secreted through root exudate in exchange for microbe-fixated nitrogen that can be utilized for plant growth. To analyze potential outcomes of possible future changes in light availability, an experiment was designed to collect and analyze the root exudate of Cymodocea nodosa under three light conditions (standard fluorescent light, blue LED, and green LED light). After 72 hours of treatment, the …


The Ability Of Specific-Wavelength Led Lights To Attract Night-Flying Insects, Ryan S. Zemel, David Houghton Feb 2018

The Ability Of Specific-Wavelength Led Lights To Attract Night-Flying Insects, Ryan S. Zemel, David Houghton

The Great Lakes Entomologist

This paper describes a portable collecting light, designed by the authors, that weighs 0.3 kg, is powered by 8 AA batteries, and uses 9 light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to attract night-flying insects. Five different wavelengths of these LED lights, all within the long-wave ultraviolet spectrum, were compared to each other and to a commercially-available 15w fluorescent ultraviolet tube light for their abilities to collect insects over a series of 5 nights in July 2016. There was no difference in order richness, total specimen abundance, or the specimen abundance of most common orders between any of the wavelengths tested. Most LED wavelengths, …


Biogenic Production Of Silver Nanoparticles By Enterobacter Cloacae Ism26, Khaled Elbaghdady, Einas El-Shatoury, Omnia Abdallah, Mostafa Khalil Jan 2018

Turkish Journal of Biology

A bacterial isolate capable of tolerating 30 mM silver nitrate (AgNO3) was recovered from soil contaminated with industrial waste. The isolate was identified by 16S rRNA as


What You Ignore At Work May Harm You: The Effects Of Light, Design, And Nature, Shelby L. Beutel May 2016

What You Ignore At Work May Harm You: The Effects Of Light, Design, And Nature, Shelby L. Beutel

BU Well

This paper looks into the effects of light, design, and nature on employees by incorporating environmental health and environmental design research into useful suggestions for the employee and the employer. The “fit” between a user and their work space has been elaborated on in recent years, and it has been shown that insufficient lighting can cause poor fit and consequential draining of energy and productivity. In the healthcare setting, medication errors have been linked to the amount of lighting within a hospital and to the variable amount of daylight throughout the year. While there is not a quick and easy …


Photosynthetic Response Of Bromus Inermis In Grasslands Of Different Altitudes, Panagiota Kostopoulou, Maria Karatassiou Jan 2016

Photosynthetic Response Of Bromus Inermis In Grasslands Of Different Altitudes, Panagiota Kostopoulou, Maria Karatassiou

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

In Greece, grasslands constitute an important component of montane areas. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the photosynthetic responses of the forage species Bromus inermis at two montane grasslands (Filippaioi, Grammatiko) and a lowland grassland under differential irradiation and CO2 concentration levels. In each area, gas exchange parameters were calculated under: a) ambient conditions along with the measurement of variable to maximal fluorescence, b) low (300 µmol m-2 s-1) and high (1400 µmol m-2 s-1) radiation, and c) ambient (380 µmol mol-1) and high (800 µmol mol-1) CO2 concentrations. In addition, assimilation response curves to different levels …


Effects Of Isochronal Exogenously Applied Synthetic-Ga_3, Fungal-Gibberellic Acid And Red Light On The Sheath Length Of The Second Leaf Of Oryza Sativa L.Cv. Tan-Ginbozu, Ş. Fati̇h Topçuoğlu, Serpi̇l Ünyayar Jan 2001

Effects Of Isochronal Exogenously Applied Synthetic-Ga_3, Fungal-Gibberellic Acid And Red Light On The Sheath Length Of The Second Leaf Of Oryza Sativa L.Cv. Tan-Ginbozu, Ş. Fati̇h Topçuoğlu, Serpi̇l Ünyayar

Turkish Journal of Biology

The effects of isochronal exogenously applied synthetic-GA_3, fungal-gibberellic acid and different light on the sheath length of the second leaf of Oryza sativa L.cv.Tan-ginbozu were determined under controlled environmental conditions. Our results showed that the effect of fungal-gibberellic acid on the sheath length of the second leaf is higher than that on the control groups (group of 1/2N Hoagland culture solution and group of 1/2N Hoagland culture solution+methanol); however, synthetic-GA_3 was more effective on the length of the second leaf than fungal gibberellic acid. Moreover, it was identified that the effect of red light is higher than that of fluorescent …
