The experiments were carried out during the agricultural season of 2003 to evaluate two different systems of harvesting soybean crop to choose the most efficient and economic system as well as to determine the optimum operating conditions for both systems. The first system was harvesting soybean crop by combine harvester (Yanmar-CA760) which was tested at four different forward and cylinder speeds under four various levels of grain and straw moisture contents. The second was harvested by hand sickle then threshed, winnowed by Turkish threshing machine that was tested at four feed rates and cylinder speeds under the same above mentioned moisture contents. All experiments were performed at the research farm of Rice Mechanization Center, Meet El-Deeba, Kafr El-Sheikh Governorate.Results showed that combine harvester (Yanmar-CA760) is strongly recommended since it gave lower losses, damage, costs and higher performance efficiency compared to manual harvesting and gathering followed by mechanical threshing and winnowing using Turkish thresher. The optimum operating conditions for combine harvester (Yanmar-CA760) are at forward speed of 2.6 km/h, cylinder speed of 10.89 m/s and grain moisture content of 18.50%. However, the optimum operating conditions for manual harvesting and gathering followed by mechanical threshing and winnowing using Turkish thresher was at feed rate of 0.5 kg/s, cylinder speed of 11.99 m/s and grain moisture content of 18.50%.
This study was planned to clarify the biochemical effects of the ginger on CCl4-induced acute hepatotoxicity and its comparison with garlic and combination between ginger and garlic through the determination of the following parameters in the blood and liver tissues of albino rats liver function test. The effect of ginger and garlic against CCL4 was estimated by using white albino rats (150-200 g), which divided into 5 groups of 15 rats. The result showed that CCl4 increase GGT, AST and ALT enzymatic activities, while rats received ginger and / or garlic, their liver function parameters were restored to normal levels and the best result was that group received ginger and garlic after CCL4 injection.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
