  1. Urea phosphate

    Urea phosphate is an organic compound of carbon , hydrogen , nitrogen , oxygen and phosphorus . Its formula is CO NH sub 2 sub sub 2 sub .H sub 3 sub PO sub 4 sub . It is made by reacting urea with phosphoric acid . It is sometimes used as a fertilizer as such, its NPK formula is 17 44 0. It is soluble in water, and produces a strongly acidic solution. Urea phosphate is sometimes added to blends which contain calcium nitrate and magnesium nitrate to produce water soluble formulas such as 15 5 15, 13 2 20, and 13 2 13. The acidity of urea phosphate allows calcium Ca , magnesium Mg and phosphorus P to co exist in solution. Under less acidic conditions, there would be precipitation of Ca Mg phosphate s.

  1. Urea-molasses

    Urea molasses multinutrient blocks may be used as a source of nitrogen and Food energy energy for animals. Urea is a nitrogen based compound produced in the kidney s. It is formed as a side compound during the process of producing protein . Overview Urea is not a protein but it contains nitrogen which is capable of being used by the microbial population in the rumen to produce protein. Molasses is the main by product of sugarcane refining and is a suitable source of energy. Preparing an adequate source of energy and nitrogen under grazing conditions is necessary for grazing animals. Molasses blocks are palatable for the animals and the molasses has the ability to cover undesirable avors that can be associated with some other chemicals added to the block. This gives the block the ability to contain high levels of unpalatable feedstuffs like urea. Urea is a cheap source of nitrogen, in comparison with other sources, and adding urea to the molasses blocks will reduce the cost of supplementation programs. Medicated blocks In tropical countries, inadequate nutrition and gastro intestinal nematode s are amongst the commonest problems, particularly in sheep and goats . Molasses, urea and other components are used for producing molasses urea feeds blocks, pastes or licks . These preparations are a suitable way of supplying degradable protein and fermentable energy to ruminant animals, and they help increase the protein supply to them. Furthermore, medicated feed supplement blocks have been used in an effort to deliver anthelmintic medication but with varying success.

  1. N-Acetylglutamate synthase

    Protein Name PAGENAME image caption Symbol NAGS AltSymbols HGNCid 17996 Chromosome 17 Arm q Band 21.31 LocusSupplementaryData ECnumber 2.3.1.1 OMIM 608300 EntrezGene 162417 RefSeq NM 153006 UniProt Q8N159 PDB N acetylglutamate synthase is an enzyme that catalyses the production of N acetylglutamate from acetyl CoA and glutamate . This enzyme is important in bacteria and plants for the synthesis of arginine , an amino acid in the pathway. This enzyme is also important for mammals, because it produces the Urea cycle Regulation regulator of urea cycle N acetylglutamate, which activates carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I , which catalyses the initial reactions of urea cycle.
