Particle size based recovery of phosphorus from combined peat and wood fly ash for forest fertilization
2016
Abstract Correlations between the concentrations of P, K, and As with particle size in fly ash from power plants were examined with a viewpoint to obtain fractions suitable for forest fertilization. Fly ash samples from several CHP plants were fractionated by using four sieves and the five fractions were analyzed by ICP-OES; it was found that both P and K are concentrated in smallest size (
A model for the cortical reaction of fertilization in the sea-urchin egg.
1953
Da una soluzione di lipovitellina (la lipoproteina del tuorlo dell'uovo di pollo) trattata con spermi vivi diArbacia lixula si ha liberazione di fosfolipidi. Questo esperimento e considerato un modello della reazione corticale di fecondazione dell'uovo di riccio di mare.
Trypsin sensitivity of some proteins of the sea-urchin egg before and after fertilization an electrophoretic analysis
1955
La frazione precipitata al 50% di saturazione di solfato di Ammonio da estratti di uova vergini e fecondate diArbacia lixula presenta all'analisi elettroforetica un gruppo principale di tre componenti. Per trattamento con tripsina questo gruppo si risolve in cinque componenti nella frazione proveniente da uova vergini ed in quattro in quella proveniente da uova fecondate.
On a glycoprotein of the sea urchin eggs and its changes following fertilization.
1960
Sbattendo con etere la frazione solubile in acido tricloroacetico di uova vergini diParacentrotus lividus si forma un precipitato all'interfacie tra etere e fase acquosa. L'analisi di questo precipitato ha dimostrato che si tratta di una glicoproteina. Il precipitato non si forma da estratti di uova fecondate.
Embryo classification method based in time-lapse analysis is associated with blastocyst quality
2012
groups: 87.7%(10434/11893), 87.4%(2674/3060), 80.2%(1350/1683) and 81.0%(634/783). Abnormal fertilization rate was significantly lower in 9598% group(6.9%,54/783) than other groups(16.1%,1918/11893; 13.8%,421/ 3060; 11.4%,192/1683). Good embryo, pregnancy and implantation rates were no significant differences among four groups(48.9%,61.6%,43.5%; 48.9%,62.1%,43.5%; 50.0%,57.6%,42.3%; 53.1%,62.5%,45.7%). CONCLUSION: Sperm morphology does not affect normal fertilization, embryonic development and clinical outcome.
P–231 Transnational oocyte donation program between Italy and Spain based on transport of vitrified oocytes: a five-years experience
2021
Abstract Study question What is the clinical efficacy of an oocyte donation program based on the transportation of vitrified oocytes between two countries? Summary answer The transnational oocyte donation program is efficient, safe and comparable to other strategies (transport of frozen sperm and embryos). What is known already Egg donation represents a valid treatment strategy for women who have exhausted their ovarian function and it has considerably increased in the last years. In Italy, egg donation is allowed after the judgment of the Constitutional Court n. 162 in 2014 but no reimbursement for the donors is provided. For this reason, the number of voluntary donors is irrelevant. There…
The human first cell cycle: impact on implantation.
2013
The morphology of fertilization events has been related to successful implantation by subjective criteria (pronuclei score, pronuclei symmetry and position). This work first described these events by time-lapse technology and then compared the timings of fertilization events (second polar body extrusion, first and second pronuclei appearance, abuttal and fading) in implanted versus nonimplanted embryos in a 2-year cohort retrospective study. A total of 1448 transferred embryos from 842 patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection with oocyte donation were monitored, 212 embryos from treatments where the number of gestational sacs matched the number of transferred embryos and 687 emb…
Age-associated telomere shortening in mouse oocytes
2013
Abstract Background Oocytes may undergo two types of aging. The first is induced by exposure to an aged ovarian microenvironment before being ovulated, known as ‘reproductive or maternal aging’, and the second by either a prolonged stay in the oviduct before fertilization or in vitro aging prior to insemination, known as ‘postovulatory aging’. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying these aging processes remain to be elucidated. As telomere shortening in cultured somatic cells triggers replicative senescence, telomere shortening in oocytes during reproductive and postovulatory aging may predict developmental competence. This study aimed to ascertain the mechanisms underlying altered te…
Preliminary studies on reproduction of Puntazzo puntazzo (Gmelin 1789) (Pisces, Sparidae) under controlled conditions
1985
Abstract Experiments were carried out under controlled conditions in September 1983 on the reproduction of Puntazzo puntazzo (sheepshead bream). The techniques adopted to stimulate spawning, the egg characteristics, and the phases of embryonal development until the sixth day after hatching are described. The best spawning results were obtained with intramuscular injections of HCG at 1 I.U./g of body weight. Optimal fertilization and hatching were observed at 22°C, the mean temperature of the sea water during the natural period of reproduction of Puntazzo puntazzo .
Effects of sewage sludge addition to Norway spruce seedlings on nitrogen availability and soil fauna in clear-cut areas
2012
Anaerobically digested and composted sewage sludge (CSS) has been suggested to be a slow-release fertilizer in forestry and an alternative to quick-release inorganic fertilizers. The effects of CSS with or without added carbohydrate on inorganic nitrogen availability and on soil animals were tested in two Norway spruce plantations. Half of the seedlings were individually fertilized with CSS, and the rest were left as controls. Solid sucrose was added to half of the fertilized and untreated seedlings. Soil samples were taken in the autumn in the first and the second year after the treatments. CSS increased soil NH4-N (2100%), the proportion of soil NO3-N, and the N concentration of spruce ne…
