The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the degree and duration of early dietary amino acid restrictions on growth performance, serum metabolites, internal organ weights, and carcass traits of pigs, ...
The effect of the export tax rebate on China's green tea market
(2012-11-06)
The demand for tea internationally, especially green tea has increased dramatically in recent years. China is a major producer and exporter of green tea. To compete effectively in the world tea market, the Chinese government ...
The Effect of the Family Structure on Child Physical Activity within a Fitness Intervention: A Theoretical Approach
(2017-04-21)
Overweight or obese children are five times more likely to become obese adults, and obesity-related conditions (i.e. heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancers) are now the leading causes of preventable ...
The Effect of the Unit Dose Dispensing System on Medication Preparation and Administration Errors in Intravenous (IV) Drugs in a Chinese Hospital: Inpatient
(2012-03-29)
Intravenous (IV) errors are considered dangerous since IV drugs usually go directly into the patient’s vein. Chinese patients receive more than twice the IVs of all other patients, yet the nature of “medication errors” is ...
Effect of thermal manipulation during late-stage incubation on broiler chicken hatchability, growth performance, carcass characteristics, and breast meat quality defects
(2023-07-31)
Incubation temperature is one of the most important factors determining embryonic development and hatchability. Duration and timing of thermal manipulation (TM) alters egg moisture loss, hatchability, chick body weight ...
Effect of three dimensional forcing on the wake of a circular cylinder
(2009-08-03)
The periodic wake of a circular cylinder was investigated with a three dimensional
disturbances,introduced in the flow field through two sinusoidal slits located on two diametrically
opposite direction on the cylinder ...
Effect of Three Dimensional Substratum Features on Benthic Algal Biomass Productivity
(2017-11-30)
Algae has emerged as a promising and valuable source for biofuels, waste water remediation and bio-products such as fertilizers, bioplastics and aquaculture feed. Algae’s emergence can be attributed to its high growth rates ...
The Effect of Throwing Intensity on Overhand Throwing Mechanics
(2021-12-07)
Overhead throwing is a dynamic and demanding movement that places great amounts of stress on the throwing arm. Current consensus attributes most throwing-related injuries to repeated microtrauma of the musculoskeletal ...
