The results show that the max. plant relative dry weight was laid between 40 and 80%, and for S\/R ratio was max. at 70%. The microbial populations and the activities of enzymes at all concentrations increased significantly with increasing the treatments of soil by sludge. Although differences from control (only soil) were statistically significant (P &lt;0.05) by increasing the level of application over 30%. High significant differences were found between 70 and 80% sludge contained-soil, where microbiologically, maximum enumerations were increased significantly by increasing the dose of sludge. The ratio between the Gram negative and Gram positive bacteria in the rhizosphere of spring wheat was 2.3. It is concluded that the positive effects of sludge when used as organic fertilizer are more than the its negative effects.

The size of the cells as well as she presence and structure of the cell wall apparently influenced the performance of PPD activity as the fungus showed a marked developmental stage dependent response to it: the cell-walled zoosporangia were more tolerant (MIC&gt;1\u03bcM) than the zoospores (MIC&lt;1\u03bcM), while the smallest cytospores MIC values were 0.03 \u03bcM. The early stages of zoosporogenesis were inhibited suggesting that PPD permeates the cell wall of zoosporangia. Functions regulating plasmalemma semipermeability were less sensitive (MIC\u22481 \u03bcM) than the motility apparatus (MIC\u22480.1 \u03bcM) of zoospores to PPD and Cu2+ ions. These cells reacted rapidly, as the first observable changes occurred within 5-10 seconds after contact with the compound asserting a target site in the cell membrane. The inhibitory effect was manifested at the nanomolar level, indicating a highly specific binding affinity to the target site and highlighting the importance of the inhibited function for normal operation of the cell membrane.<br>The overall lesson of our experiment is that the combination of microchemical methods with micro-techniques in screening lead to valuable toxicological data on the membrane-function disturbing activity of synthetic peptide analogues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Keywords<\/strong>: &#8211;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/nordtech.ubm.ro\/issues\/2003\/2003.01.67.pdf\" data-type=\"page\">Download article<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>THE TRANSVERSE CONTACT RATIO OF WORM GEARINGS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Slavko PAVLENKO, J\u00e1n PA\u0160KO<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Abstract<\/strong>: The article presents the description of the method applied to the determination of the mesh<br>duration factor of worm gearings which is rather difficult to define when compared to that of the spur gearings.

The presented model is developed on the basis of modified Witoszy\u0144ski\u2019s propeller theory presented in [4] . In this model an iterative determination of induced velocity field is avoided thanks to solution method similar to as in Witoszy\u0144ski\u2019s propeller theory. The Goldstein kappa factor or Prandtl tip loss factor are introduced to the equations of momentum and angular momentum for ideal HAWT. Ideal axial force (thrust) and ideal torque are determined using blade element method (BEM) (profile losses are neglected). This values of thrust and torque are compared to those obtained from momentum and torque equation. Thanks to approximation of lift force coefficient vs. angle of attack by sine curve one may obtain a quadratic equation for axial velocity component An extended version of the model including nonuniform inflow is presented. In the theory a quasi-steady approach to blade element characteristics was applied. The calculations are compared with experimental data obtained at Ris\u03c6 100 kW test turbine.
