EFFECT OF SHADING AND NITROGEN FERTILIZATION ON NITROGEN METABOLISM, ESSENTIAL OIL CONTENT AND ANTIMICROBIAL ACTIVITY OF ACHILLEA MILLEFOLIUM

Effect of shading and nitrogen fertilization on nitrogen metabolism, essential oil content and antimicrobial activity of Achillea millefolium

The Achillea millefolium L.is a perennial herb with important antibacterial, antifungal, anti-inflammatory, antitumoral, and antioxidant properties.This research aimed to investigate the effect of shading (75%; black net) and nitrogen fertilization (0, 75 and 150 kg urea ha-1) on the nitrogen metabolism, essential oil yield and antimicrobial activi

Efficient separation of strontium ions from aqueous solution by dibenzo-18-crown-6 functionalized resin: Static and dynamic adsorption studies with computational DFT insights

The separation and utilization of radiotoxic 90Sr from liquid nuclear waste streams generated in the nuclear fuel reprocessing is highly desirable and challenging.Herein, we studied dibenzo-18-cown-6 functionalized chloromethyl-polystyrene (CMPS-DB18C6) resin which displays an excellent affinity toward Sr2+ion adsorption from aqueous solution.Adsor
