Full textThis study examines the problems of implementing water allocation policy in the context of the local state bureaucracy as well as the specific experiences of local black emerging farmers in the Breede Gouritz Water Management Area. This study used qualitative research methods and is based on many hours of interviews and observing bureaucrats and stakeholders at the receiving end of the bureaucratic business process of water allocation. It is not only concerned with the physical and technical aspects of access but explores how the different role players interact, navigate, shape, frame and manage challenges to gain access to and control water for productive use. The actual experiences and understandings of the stakeholders in their own contexts when engaging with the access to water are crucial to gain a comprehensive understanding and insight into the influence of bureaucracy and power relations. This thesis therefore maps the confusions and incapacities and shows that even though the South African laws are based on the best international frameworks, they fail, as they do not sufficiently address the unique environment and landscape. Existing scholarship has not adequately researched local bureaucratic power. At the coalface of implementation, bureaucrats make up their own rules to cope with rapid policy churning. Combined with existing power relations, policy implementation and policy direction is steered towards different and unintended trajectories, making transformation a challenge to achieve. Consequently, my main finding is that there have been constant and rapid legislative and policy changes but they have simply added to the confusion and instability.

Full textMode i politiken - ett omskrivet ämne i media. Det sträcker sig från Mona Sahlins väska till Carl Bildts camouflagekavaj. På liknande sätt blev Nya Moderaternas "klädkod" föremål för debatt. Men hur viktiga är politikernas klädsel? Enligt teorin finns det en tendens till att den politiska journalistiken alltmer trivialiserar och skandaliserar politiken. Politiken medialiseras och estetiseras. Mot denna bakgrund var mitt syfte att undersöka modets betydelse och funktion. Min ambition var att studera vilka olika faktorer som avgör modets relevans i politiken. Kvalitativa intervjuer genomfördes med tre aktörer verksamma inom politiken respektive medierna.
Resultaten visade att det finns sex aspekter som är betydelsefulla faktorer som förklarar modets betydelse och funktion; 1) mode kommunicerar och påverkar; 2) mode kan skapa efterfrågan; 2) mode anses vara genusrelaterat; 3) mode anses kunna uttrycka identitet; 4) politikernas klädsel har nyhetsvärde som ibland kan skada deras trovärdighet; 5) mode i politiken anses inte ha en avgörande betydelse vad gäller väljarpåverkan; 6) det har skett en kontinuerlig utveckling och förändring under de senaste årtiondena där mode fått en allt större betydelse.

Full textL'insuffisance cardiaque (IC) et la goutte sont des conditions médicales fréquentes qui sont des causes importantes de morbidité et de mortalité au Canada et aux États-Unis. Nous avons entrepris une étude populationelle « case-control » avec des données administratives de la province du Québec pour investiguer l'association entre la goutte ou l'allopurinol avec le prognostic de l'IC. Notre analyse démontre qu'un antécedent de goutte est associé à une hausse du taux de réadmissions à l'hôpital pour l'IC et une augmentation de la mortalité parmi les patients avec IC (RR ajusté 1.63; 95% CI 1.48-1.80). Cependant, nous demontrons que la prise d'allopurinol est associée à une réduction de la réadmission à l'hôpital pour IC et une diminution de la mortalité (RR ajusté 0.69, 95% CI 0.60-0.79). Comme notre étude est observationelle, les facteurs confondants qui ne sont pas disponibles ou qui sont inconnus peuvent biaiser nos résultats. Nous présentons une nouvelle méthode qui permet l'estimation et le contrôle de ces facteurs confondants basée sur l'estimation du « confounding rate ratio ». Nous présentons un example utilisant cette nouvelle méthode, et nous discutons les suppositions, les limitations et les considérations statistiques de cette méthode.

Esta dissertação pretende analisar a inserção de grupos de oração carismáticos no meio universitário. Pretende-se questionar o senso comum “douto” presente neste meio que afirma que esta inserção pode ser vista como questionadora da composição moderna (laica) da universidade. Reforça esse questionamento a análise das articulações que esses grupos vêm realizando, o que permite encontrar mais modernidade nesses grupos e menos laicidade na universidade. Os universitários que participam desses grupos não apenas rezam, cantam e pregam, também procuram falar e se envolver com a ciência, o mundo do trabalho e a participação política. Não seriam estes elementos pilares constitutivos de nossa universidade? Desse modo, a medida em que acionam dispositivos próprios da universidade legitimam sua inserção, sem ter que dever nada para a universidade, que é por eles assimilada.

Full textGout has been classified as an autoinflammatory disease because of its self-remitting course and the involvement of the innate immune system and IL-1β in its pathogenesis. During the last years, the evidence of NLRP3 inflammasome activation by monosodium urate (MSU) crystals and the beneficial effect of IL-1 blockade for the treatment of patients with gout, have reaffirmed the concept of gout as an autoinflammatory disease. However, some questions regarding its pathogenesis remain still unanswered. The presence of MSU crystals in asymptomatic joints or why not all individuals with hyperuricemia develop clinical gout, are some examples. In this thesis we centred our attention in the mononuclear phagocyte system with the hypothesis that the state of activation or maturation of monocytes and macrophages modulates the inflammatory response to MSU crystals. Regarding macrophages, our hypothesis is that resident macrophages, after contact with MSU crystals, acquire an inflammatory phenotype, being able to produce inflammatory cytokines in the presence of a second signal or trigger. Therefore, to test it, we used an in vitro model of human monocyte-derived macrophages polarized towards M1 or M2 phenotypes in the presence of GM-CSF and M-CSF respectively, considering M2 macrophages a model of resident synovial macrophages. M1 and M2 macrophages failed to produce IL-1β after stimulation with MSU crystals or LPS. However, in the presence of MSU, M2 macrophages produced IL-1β and decreased IL-10 secretion when LPS was added. Surprisingly, soluble uric acid had a suppressive effect for expression of both cytokines. The production of IL-1β was explained because MSU crystals increased the presence of active caspase-1, reflecting inflammasome activation, whereas LPS induced pro-IL-1β and inactive caspase-1 production. Analysis of inflammasome activation in M1 and M2 macrophages revealed differences in inflammasome proteins, that could account for their different IL-1β production. To investigate if the capacity of monocytes to react to MSU crystals could explain why some individuals develop gout, we compared the inflammasome activation induced by MSU crystals in PBMCs from gouty patients with healthy controls. PBMCs of patients with gout exhibited enhanced inflammasome activation after culture with MSU. Therefore, our results suggest that patients with gout have an increased reactivity to MSU crystals. To provide further insight, we genotyped exon 3 of NLRP3 gene in gout patients, without finding any association of gout with polymorphisms in this gene. Finally, we analyzed the distribution of different monocyte phenotypes or blood subpopulations in patients with gout. We observed an expansion of the intermediate subpopulation (CD14++CD16+) during gout flares, but no differences were observed in any of the subpopulations between asymptomatic patients and healthy controls.

Full textIt is in polemical stance toward the aesthetic ideology prevailing in the poetic realm at the time when he starts writing that i analyse the ambivalent terms of rimbaud's relation to "beauty", which is to say to poetry itself, as it represents ans celebrates itself in its allegory. In order to better understand what is at stake in his taste distate of beauty, i have reread the theoreticians of aesthetics (aristotle, kant, hegel) and their critics (nietzsche, adorno, derrida). As the prologue of une saison en enfer describes it, rimbaud's approach to beauty appears as a will to "sense" its "body", radically opposed to the idealism of poetic practice of the time. The translation by the poet of the failure of his endeavor in terms of a negative experience of the mouth ("beauty" is found literally "bitter") invites us to reflect on what links the esthetic experience to orality and more specifically on the relationship between the practice of poetry, in contrast to other linguistic activities, and the search for an oral feast" within and through poetry, one could say that rimbaud dreamed the "desublimation" of the desires and drives at work in the lyric

Full textBackground: A person in the stage of end of life is called palliative. This means that the patient no longer can be cured; only the symptoms can be alleviated. The “6:S” is a nursing model in palliative care and the purpose is person-centered care that can contribute to a worthy death. To achieve a good care relationship, the ability of nurses to get into patient's situation is needed. Today nurses’ are trained in palliative care in the under graduate education. However, across Sweden it looks different. Aim: Describe how nurses experience palliative care based on basic education. Method: A qualitative literature review is the method. Result: Two categories have been formed through the analysis; Negative experiences and Positive experiences. From these five subcategories has been formed; Frustration, Inadequate and lonely, Challenging care, Personally involved and Internal strength. Discussion: The palliative care creates a lot of emotions. Nurses experience the challenges as positive, but express that they need more knowledge about how to respond to the patient’s existential issues and emotional needs. Conclusion: Experience is central in palliative care. More knowledge about palliative care is needed in the nurse's basic education.

Full textThis study involves the preparation and characterization of new amino(thio) carbene complexes of gold(I) and gold(III). In addition the reactivity of bis(thiazolyl) aurate and the above mentioned carbene complexes are also described. Various thiazolyllithium reagents reacted with [AuCl(tht)] to yield bis(thiazolyl) aurate complexes of gold(I) which were isolated in crystalline form. These crystals contained solvent of crystallization and no structural determination of these aurates were possible. The latter compounds readily reacted with elemental sulphur by insertion of a sulphur atom into one of the Au-C bonds thereof Subsequent reaction with one molar equivalent of CF 3S03CH3 or CF3SO3H produced either carbene, [Au(CNRYS)(SC=NY§)] (Y = CCH 3=CH, C4H6; R = H, CH3), or thione, [Au(S=h‘TRY)(C=NYS)], complexes of gold(I) which spontaneously decomposed into gold(I) polymers ([Au(C=NYS)]. or [Au(S&=NY)].) and organic products (C=NYS or S=CNRYS). In an attempt to isolate the above-mentioned carbene or thione complexes bis(thiazolyl) aurate complexes were treated with two molar equivalents of CF3S03CH3 or CF3SO3H after sulphur insertion. Rather than the expected mixed carbene thione complexes, [Au(elsTRY§)(S=eNRY§)]CF 3S03, homoleptic rearrangement produced bis(carbene) complexes of gold(I) with unexpected counterions (Cl instead of CF 3SO3). Reaction of lithiated mercaptobenzothiazole with [AuCl(tht)] yielded a bis(thiolate) complex of gold(I), [Au(SC=NC 6H4 S-0)2]Li. Alkylation or protonation of this modified aurate complex resulted in the formation of gold polymers, [Au(S=NC 6H4 -0)]„, and organic products, S=§NRC6H4§-o, R=H, CH3 ). Oxidative addition of halogens to bis(thiazolyl) aurate complexes produced no isolable organometallic complexes. [AuC1 1]Li probably formed after repetitive oxidation addition (C1 2) and reductive elimination reaction (2-chlorothiazole). However, oxidation of these aurate complexes with SOC12 limited the reaction to one oxidative addition and one reductive elimination step to produce [AuCl(CNHYS)] (Y=CCH 3=CH, C6H4) after acidification. Reaction of the neutral mono(carbene) complex [Au(CNCCH 3=CHS)(C=NCCH3=CHS)] with C12, Br2 or 12 produced carbene complexes of gold(I), [AuX(6NHCCH 3=CH§)] (X=C1, Br, I), after reductive elimination of 2-halogeno-4-methylthiazole. Cationic bis(thiazolinylidene) complexes of gold(I) react readily with C1 2 and 12 to produce stable Ms(carbene) complexes of gold(III). However, oxidative addition on the same carbene complex by I2 is followed by a novel reductive elimination of (ICNii)cF SO to produce carbene complexes of gold(I), [AuI(CMN7- TTA )]. Alkylation (CF3SO3CH3) of 4-methylthiazole, bensothiazole and methylimidazole, followed by deprotonation (BuLi) produced free carbenes. These carbenes were trapped by reaction with [AuCl(tht)] to form carbene-chloro complexes of gold(I). Chloro(1,3- dimethylimidazolinylidene)gold(I) react readily with NaN 3 or AgNO3 to yield [AuX(CNCH3CH=CH1:TCH3)] (X = N3 or NO3 ). As part of this study the structures of several carbene complexes were determined, including five carbene complexes of gold(I) and one carbene complex of gold(III). Au-C bond lengths of between 1.92-2.13A were found with the largest Au-C separation in the carbene complex of gold(III), [Au(aNCH3CH=CHNCH3)2]CF3S03 . Certain complexes of gold(I) exhibit interesting Au...Au interactions (3.19-3.51A) resulting in the aggregation of gold atoms to form dimers and chains of gold(I) atoms. The structures of two related complexes of iron were also determined to investigate the effect of protonation on a neutral carbene precursor, [Fe(CO) 2Cp(C=CHCH=NNPh)], to form the cationic carbene complex, [Fe(C0) 2Cp(aCH=CHNHI:IPh)JCF3S03. Small changes in bond lengths and angles resulted upon carbene formation.

Full textThis research was conducted to determine the effect of homoeopathic treatment on acute gout patients. Putterman (1994) conducted a research study on the effect of the homoeopathic remedy Colchicum autumnale in gout, and found partial improvement in the clinical picture of gout. No research has been conducted in South Africa on the efficacy of homoeopathic medicines in acute gout patients. This study focused on the homoeopathic Law of Similars, where a single most similar homoeopathic remedy was chosen according to the unique characteristic symptoms displayed by each participant suffering with acute gout. This was a qualitative study that used ten subjects who presented within five days of acute gout and participated in the fifteen-day study period. Participants that complied with the American College of Rheumatology (formerly American Rheumatism Association, ACR) criteria for gout were selected. Serum uric acid tests were taken on day 0 and day 6 to assess hyperuricemia. On day 0 a thorough case history and examination was taken followed by administration of the indicated remedy. Treatment efficacy was evaluated on day 1, 3 and 6, based on daily subjective impression of participant involvement, objective analysis and comparative analysis of serum uric acid. Re-examination for relapses or rebound attacks followed on day 15. In a study using allopathic remedies in acute gout, resolution of all acute gout symptoms occurred at an average of 8 days using indomethacin and 7 days using triamcinolone (Alloway et. al., 1993). In this study using homoeopathic similimum treatment, resolution of all acute gout symptoms occurred at an average of 6 days. One episode of a rebound gout attack occurred and serum uric acid decreased in 80% of patients. Homoeopathic similimum prescribing is an effective alternative treatment for acute gout. Although more research is required, the preliminary findings of this study suggest that the correct homoeopathic similimum treatment is an effective treatment for the symptoms of acute gout.

Abstract It is well know that free radical represents in the cell and tissue danger thus leading to various disease. Many results have been shown that plant-derived antioxidants could prevent and delay oxidation damage in cell and tissue. In this study, we try to investigate the potential health benefits of different component of wax gourd extract have not been studied. The objective of this study was divided to four parts. First, to assess the antioxidant properties of these materials, we have used a range of established assays to analysis the total antioxidants and capability of prevention lipid peroxidation, KI and DPPH assay were used to determine the total antioxidant activity. The total polyphenolic compounds were determined according to the Folin-Ciocalteu’s procedure. TBARS assay used human LDL as an index of antioxidants against status in vitro, and SOD activity stain assay to verify SOD in wax gourd. Second, used ACE inhibition assay to verify whether the wax gourd content ACE inhibitor. Third, cultured different bacterias on the different Muller Hitione agar medium and measured antibacterial activity of wax gourd extract by paper disk diffusion. Fourth, used MTT assay to check fibroblast cell proliferation rate offer cell stimulated by fresh wax gourd extract. In the KI assay, wax gourd seed had highest antioxidant capability, then wax gourd core and wax gourd peel. Water-extracted wax gourd seed had best performance in scavenging DPPH radical assay , wax gourd seed also had best result in inhibition of LDL oxidation in TBARS assay, and fresh wax gourd core extract had lowest inhibition rate of LDL oxidation. Fresh pulp part of wax gourd had highest polyphenol content 169.1 GAE(gallic acid equivalent concentration, mM), then peel part of wax gourd 151.1 GAE, seed part 148.0GAE and core 109.5GAE. The seed part of wax gourd expressed the highest SOD activity than the core, pulp and peel part of wax gourd. All the parts of wax gourd had positive result in ACE inhibitor assay, but the wax gourd seed show the strongest result than others. In antimicrobial assay, neither fresh sample extract nor condense wax gourd sample extract had diffusible antimicrobial result. There was no significant result in MTT assay. These results suggested that wax gourd may prevented lipid peroxidation, provided good antioxidants source, prevented hypertension, and antimicrbials ability to the human.

INTRODUCTION AND AIMS: Gout is a popular disease worldwide. Traditionally, patients suffering from gout were thought to be at high risk for renal complications and people who had gout always worry about the potential risks of getting a kidney disease. The link between uromodulin (UMOD) and chronic kidney disease (CKD) has attracted much interests in the medical literature and several investigations showed UMOD had active role in CKD progression. To our knowledge, the association of urinary UMOD excretion on gout and non-gout patients with CKD has not been thoroughly investigated. METHODS: A total of 114 Taiwanese patients with stable disease activity selected from a cohort that attended our renal and rheumatology outpatient department were enrolled (Non-Gout patients: 40 ,Gout patients: 74) between Jun. 1, 2011 and Dec. 13, 2012. Patients were divided into CKD group (N=68) and non-CKD (N=46) group. CKD was defined by MDRD equation estimate glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)<60 ml/min per 1.73m2. Their demographic data, laboratory tests including serum creatinine, serum uric acid eGFR, and urinary creatinine and UMOD level were measured. Urinary UMOD excretion was calculated as UMOD/UCR ratio. RESULTS: Using Pearson correlation analysis, urinary UMOD excretion correlated positively with eGFR in patients with Gout. In non-gout patients, urinary UMOD excretion does not correlate with eGFR. Gender, status of DM, gout and hypertension do not show significant difference between CKD group and non-CKD group. However, age (CKD group: 62.2 ± 13.8, Non-CKD group: 43.9 ± 12.8, p < 0.0001) and serum uric acid (CKD group: 8.2 ± 2.2 mg/dl, Non-CKD group: 7.2 ± 1.7 mg/dl, p <0.05) are significantly different between CKD group and non-CKD group. Urinary UMOD excretion is also statistical significantly between two groups (CKD group: 3.7± 4.8, Non-CKD group: 5.8 ± 6.1, p <0.05). Using multivariate analysis, patients with CKD and gout were associated with lower urinary UMOD excretion than those who have gout alone [Odds Ratio 0.796, 95% confidence interval: 0.665-0.934, p=0.006). Patients with CKD and gout were also more likely to be older (p < 0.001) and have higher uric acid levels (p < 0.05). In non-gout patient, urinary UMOD excretion was not associated with status of CKD instead. CONCLUSIONS: Our study indicates that UMOD might play a role in the relationship between gout and CKD. Further studies with animal model of gout and CKD are mandatory to establish fundamental pathomechanism and explore the clinical implications.

With the development of the Intelligent Transportation Systems, Advanced Traveler Information Systems and Variable-Message Sign can provide instant traffic information as references of route choices for travelers in order to decrease the travel-time uncertainty and to reduce the amount of traffic. Most of the traditional route choice researches are focused on the effect of route choice decision that based on road characteristics and traveler behavior characteristics, but only a few studies have evaluated the influence of passengers in the same car on the driver’s route choice decision. This dissertation is focused on the effect of travel cost on group’s route choice decision-making for long travel with the condition that user group obtain traffic information from ATIS and make group decision through individuals’ risk-taking and momentary recollection of past experience.

Gout is not a single disease but a term used to describe a group of metabolic disorders characterized by tissue deposition monosodium urate (MSU) monohydrate crystals from hyperuricaemic body fluids. Major clinical manifestations include gouty arthritis, tophus, gouty nephropathy, and uric acid calaulus in the urinary tract. According to epidemiological and experimental studies, the incidence of gout is higher in men than in women. In addition to life style and eating habits, genetic factors are probably the major cause of the disease, although the exact mechanism remains to be determined. The purpose of this study was to examine whether single nucleutide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the IL-1(IL-1β promoter, IL-1βexon5, IL-1 Ra), IL-4 and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα-308)gene polymorphisms, the CAG repeats in the AR gene and the TA repeats in the ER gene were associated with gout. This study included 196 gout patients and health individuals as control subjects. Amplification of the gene markers was carried out by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The amplified products were analyzed by restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequence analysis. We used SPSS10.0 to perform statistical analysis upon the data collected. No significant differents were observed in the genetic distribution, allelic frequencies or allele carriage rates of the IL-1(IL-1β promoter, IL-1βexon5, IL-1 Ra), IL-4 and TNFα-308 gene between patients with gout and health control subjects. Additionally, we did not detect any association between IL-1(IL-1β promoter, IL-1βexon5, IL-1 Ra), IL-4 and TNFα-308 genotypes and the clinical and laboratory profiles in gout patients, except for hypertriglyceridemia. There were significant differences in the IL-1βexon 5 genotype and TNFα-308 polymorphisms between gout patients with and without hypertriglyceridemia. It was found that IL-1βexon 5 E2 gene polymorphism can trigger gout in patient with hypertriglyceridemia. It was also noted that the TNFαA gene polymorphism can trigger gout in patient with hypertriglyceridemia. While both IL-1βexon 5 E2 and TNFαA seen to cause gout, both IL-1βexon 5 E1 gene and TNFαG genes are protective factors. Associations between gout and the CAG repeats in the AR gene and the TA repeats in the ER gene were evaluated. There were no statistical differens between gout patients and the normal controls in the distribution of CAG repeats in the AR gene. But, there was a significant difference between gout patients and the normal controls in the distribution of TA repeats in the ER gene. The risk of gout in patients with 10-15 TA dinucleotide repeats is 1.75-fold and 29-fold of that in patients with 16-21 TA dinucleotide repeats and 22-27 TA dinucleotide repeats, respectively. In other words, the fewer number of TA dinucleotide repeats, the higher the rate of coming down with gout. The results of our study suggest that the IL-1βexon 5、TNFα-308 and estrogen receptor gene polymorphisms are associated with gout, and they may be candidate genetic markers for risk of gout.

Bitter gourd seeds have small cotyledons enclosed in a hard, thick seed coat. Which, limits germination to unacceptably low level. A number of pre-sowing treatments can increase germination by overcoming the limitations imposed by the seed coat. For all three varieties of bitter gourd seeds used in this study, germination at 30, 25and 20℃ were the best when seeds were clipped and soaked in running water for 12 hrs. Seeds immersed in 50oC water for 60 min exhibited significantly higher germination than seeds immersed at other temperatures and for different times. The germination of seeds treated with H2SO4 was the highest after 30 sec of immersion. However, germination decreased as immersion time increased beyond 30 sec. Germination was higher for clipped seeds immersed in 15% H2O2 for 25 min and for unclipped seeds imbibed with 1% H2O2 water. Priming seeds for 2 days with vermiculite No. 2 and NaOCl at a seeds: vermiculite # 2: 0.1% NaOCl ratio of 9:12:18, by weight produced the highest germination rate. The highest emergence rate was achieved with two different treatments of soaking clipped seeds in running water for 12 hr or immersing unclipped seeds in 50°C water for 1 hr. The conductivity of leachate from ‘Fen Ching’ and ‘Ching Pi’ bitter gourd seeds that were soaked prior to sowing was assayed during the first 12 hr of imbibition. The leachate from control seeds had the highest conductivity, while the leachate from seeds treated with H2SO4 exhibited the second highest conductivity. After imbibition for 12 hr, the lowest conductivity value was obtained from the leachate of seeds that soaked in running water or immersed in 50°C water. In addition, after soaking 24 hr, the leachate from the seeds in these two treatments contained significantly fewer phenolic compounds and free amino acids than the leachate from seeds that received other treatments. When seeds soaked in water for one hr, the soluble carbohydrates, phenolic compound and free amino acids from seeds soaked in 50°C water were significantly more than those in 25°C water. Seeds soaked in water for 12 hr contained significantly less water and more soluble carbohydrates, and had a significantly higher respiration rate than seeds soaked for 24 hr. The densest seeds were also the heaviest seeds and had the highest germination and shortest germination time (MDG). After-ripening significantly increased the germination and decreased the MDG of the densest seeds from completely yellow gourds. For seeds of a given density from half-yellow gourds, the germination of seeds after-ripened for 72 hr was significantly greater than the germination of seeds after-ripened for 24 hr. There were significantly more soluble carbohydrates in seeds from after-ripened, half-yellow gourds, than in seeds from untreated completely yellow gourds. Among seeds from half-yellow gourds, the soluble carbohydrates were highest in seeds from gourds after-ripened 72 hr, and starch content was highest in seeds from gourds after-ripened 24 hr. Seeds from fruit after-ripened 72 hr had the greatest emergence force. The effective and cheap pre-sowing methods were demonstrated in this research for enhancing seeds germination. Bitter gourd seed quality was enhanced by adequate fruit maturity, after ripening and seed density grading. The pre-sowing treatment that increased germination the most and was least expensive was seeds immersed in 50oC water for 60 min.
